- Last night was our 10th game in 35 days.
- This was the 11th time in the last 5 months, and the 4th time in 10 days!, that TFC played a game where the previous game was (i) only 3 or 4 days earlier, and (ii) more than a 4 hour flight away.
Those are incredible statistics.
I will probably do some analysis on this, maybe a separate thread on scheduling.
Every team has challenges, and bad travel stretches, but this seems unreal - is our schedule burden unique or unfair?
