  • THE STARTING 11: Way Too Positive TFC Statements

    For a team that has apparently been built with more “manly men” (TM) than ever before, Toronto FC sure seem to be a sensitive bunch lately. The club that has zero playoff matches in nine seasons is apparently miffed that fans are yet to cut them some slack while still casting a wary eye at…

  • THE STARTING 11: Unheralded Acts of TFC Hard Labour

      Happy Labour Day comrades!

Wourkers of the Wourld Unite! Despite…

  • Toronto FC vs Seattle Sounders: Can We Just Give Them The Points And Stay Home?

    Yay for a week off!  Oh wait, Toronto FC doesn’t have the weekend off?  Can we umm, take one?  This is a difficult game to get excited about given Toronto’s current state.  Sure everyone is feeling good about the recent wins and goals, so why worry about a little road trip to Seattle?  Well, I’ll…
