Love the lengthy lists of personal achievements posted alongside. An article and a come-and-get-me coaching job application all in one.

Too bad the first two paragraphs give him away as not knowing what he's talking about.

How are TFC an 'extreme long shot' right now? They're two points out.

And 'James on Soccer'? That's the best they could come up with.

Maybe because of their recent form and they pretty much need to win three games in a row, something they've never done.

But that's what good writers and columnists do. They go out on a limb, they take a stance, they have a pop. They entertain by taking positions, seeing possibilities. But they never write the literary equivalent of cold porridge.

Which is all we ever get from Pall Jamezzzzzz. Larry Millson never had an editorial platform like this. But Larry Millson never once bored us rigid.

Woops. Should have said league play this season!
Either way, my bad. I don't think that statement was way off the chart, or indicative of "not knowing what he talking about".
