Toronto FC vs Portland Timbers: Will It Be Timber To The Visitors, Or A Chainsaw Massacre?

Toronto FC vs Portland Timbers ~ August 12th ~ 6pm ET ~ BMO Field ~ TSN2 If a Portland teams falls at BMO and there’s no one around is it still a loss?  Trick question, even in the dark times BMO Field was never empty.  Lame attempts at joking/philosophising aside, this afternoon’s (is 6pm still afternoon?  This evening?), match against Portland should be more to Toronto’s liking; playing a top team on the upswing,...

The South Couch Report: Toronto vs New York City

Another South Couch report for a home game? I’m afraid so, it’s a poor showing from the vocal minority as other commitments means a lonely afternoon for full time supporter Kristin. Your humble correspondent relaxes on the air conditioned couch and so it’s on to the report. The Part I Write Before The Match : Well I wrote an entire article that you’ve no doubt already read, the tl;dr … TFC will be more or...

Duane’s World: Is Armando Cooper This Year’s Chad Barrett?

I want to talk about Chad Barrett for a moment. The Chad. Duncan’s beautiful, long-gone, but not forgotten Chad. The striker who couldn’t find a net too open to miss, a ball too far away to chase, or a bro too bro-y to out bro. Chad freakin’ Barrett. In hindsight, he’s become symbolic off the simple joys that we all got watching TFC the Bad – a glowing example of the lovable losers that we all fell in love with as they slowly drove us...

Toronto FC vs Colorado Rapids: Can TFC Take Advantage of the Sadsack Rapids?

Toronto FC vs Colorado Rapids ~ Sat. July 22nd ~ 7pm ET ~ BMO Field ~ TSN1/4 It’s game day and Toronto FC are back home to take on the woeful Colorado Rapids.  TFC are coming off a wild one in the Big Apple, in which they grabbed a road point (but looked like they could have won), lost Seba to injury and saw coach Greg Vanney get tossed by the ref.  There was also the – still controversial – offside/no goal call on...
