Wynne ready to defend unbeaten start
TFC open at home against Seattle Sounders FC
Toronto FC defender Marvell Wynne believes the unbeaten start to the season is a good base to build on as the team prepares for Saturday's home opener against Seattle Sounders FC (kick off 4:00 p.m. live on CBC).
The Reds started the season with a win at Kansas City Wizards and then tied 1-1 with the defending MLS champion Columbus Crew in Ohio on Saturday. "It has been a good start for us," said Wynne.

There are always improvements to be made, but we have done well in the opening two games."

PM hooks up with 'Canadian of convenience'
LONDON — When it comes to the global financial crisis, there are far fewer than six degrees of separation. Prime Minister Stephen Harper staged a photo opportunity on Wednesday morning with Owen Hargreaves, the Calgary-born soccer star who plays for Manchester United in the English Premier League.
Harper is in London for the G20 economic summit.
On the surface, there appeared to be no thematic link between Hargreaves, a defensive midfielder who has played only three games with United this season because of knee surgeries, and the prime minister's economic mission.
