    Default MLS Cup: postmatch thread

    Colorado wins the cup.

    Cunningham plays his usual for the "big game."
    MLS is a tough, physical league, that emphasizes speed, and features plastic fields, grueling travel, extreme weather, and incompetent refs. - NK Toronto

    Cuntingham loses the Cup. Discuss.
    Still possibly the only known RPB to appear on Masterchef Canada.
    (I think?)

    Hahahaha. Cunningham is a fuckin choker and that should've been a goal.

    Great game and Ian Darke kicks the shit out of Nigel Reed.

    Ton of negativity towards TFC fans from Twitter and Bigsoccer tonight. Crowd looked bad on tv.

    Just got home... that was lots of fun. The start time was absolutely ridiculous, though.

    that had to be one of the dullest matches i've ever witnessed. especially the anti-climatic trophy presentation - by the time they got on with it, everyone had left.

    Oh the irony. Until they can fill their own stadiums I think they should shut the fuck up. Unless they're Seattle..... but even then Seattle can go fuck themselves too.

    God forbid we don't get the BigSoccer vote. Place is a toilet.

    Agreed. In a final played by two teams who would be jealous of WNBA attendance numbers we're the bad guys?

    Super dull game. Start time sucked, I assume it was to accommodate US TV. Oh well, my guest is this is the last MLS CUP TFC will be hosting.

    I had a fantastic time at the game. Stayed until the end, but I can understand people wanting to go at the end of 90 minutes. It was frigid.

    ^ I'm glad to hear some people enjoyed the game. It was cold, but definitely bearable. Just hard to get interested in a MLS game without TFC for me. Glad I went though, now for my favourite time of the season, the off season. Just a couple months now till will be googling trialists we've never heard of.

    Great night at BMO. True footbal fans showed up and watched the end of the season unfold and supported in style. Had a great night with all my friends and enjoyed the outcome immensely. Props to the Colorado fans with their Canadian flag banner and congrats on the victory. Fuck you FCD. So enjoyed watching you bitches lose on our turf.

    This is from Ives' Twitter feed:

    Word I'm getting here is some TFC fans did formulate a protest that consisted of them leaving just before or at kickoff. I'll look 2 confirm
    WTF? Whose idea was this?

    6:30pm MST works...for MST. And probably PST.

    Doesn't work for everyone else, though.

    Good. Hopefully MLS and MLSE learned their lesson. Theyve treated Toronto fans like shit for years and this was a nice little middle finger that will be more effective than any supporters group protest or negative tifo (which really dont do anything other than prove your devotion to the team, they dont hit MLSE where it counts).

    MLS and MLSE have egg on their faces and they only have themselves to blame. It was a perfect shit storm (the over-pricing, the horrible team, the weather, the time of night, the participants), but they brought it on themselves by taking their paying customer for granted.

    If we are lucky this leads to a more humble MLSE and an MLS Cup Final played in a non-neutral site; so this embarrassing final should really be a positive in the long run.

    I dont know why people seem to be talking about 'protest' though. There was no protest, it was just that people didnt give enough of a fuck to go.

    At least for a long time anyway.
    Toronto certainly doesn't deserve another Cup game for many years.
