Morning D!
Well the sunshine's are improving but about was well as TFC... Shudder.....
Tonight the Red Patch Boys are providing the kids that go out hand in hand with the players for the anthem! Just one of the perks of membership - the chance for this!
DeRo for Gold Cup. We need the option. Good on him for standin up to his new coach.

“The crowd makes a huge impact on how a team performs. If there are lot of people out there that do support Canada, that want to see Canada in a World Cup, want to see Canada do well, they’ve got to come out and show that sort of 12th man spirit and help us through it.
“Those players are wearing the Canada shirt with pride. They’ve sacrificed a lot to play for Canada and they don’t ask much.”
WoW Boban.....
Is somebody upset because they didn't get picked for ball kid this week?

And maybe you'll grow up and see what the FO has been doing.
I am actually quite surprised no one has said anything about this before.
It doesn't matter where the kids come from or who they are sponsored by.
In year 1 and 2 those kids came out in full fledged soccer uniforms. That past few season that is no longer the case. They come out in shirts hawking the wares of a TFC sponsor.
I for 1 find it appalling that 8,9,10, 11 yr. olds are used in this way. Its children for Christ sake. Every kid looks forward to this day if their team is chosen to do the walk out. Let them have their day - in full footy uniforms- not use them for commercial interest.

Do you really think that they feel used because of a shirt that the team has them wear??? I think it's more that they get to participate... Most, if not all player escorts have some kind of commercial interest... This isn't new to the world of football... Oh my, they gave a kid a shirt with a sponsor, the horror..
Nothing is a sure win for TFC. .
except for this game. . . . . Frei says: I GOT THIS.
SSG: HEAVY HANGERS (finally)
NOTICE: Wager with STB: OVER 2 shots on goal in the First half wins a Pint at HT.
I'd like to think we wouldn't be able too mess this one up, but hey it's TFC. you can never quite be sure.
my match preview.
Sun is shining, SSG has "heavy hangers" and co-ed #1 has a boob tribute...i can't see any bad coming from today.
Shoot, TFC game day...spoke too soon..."and always look on the bright side of life..."
Looks like FK Partizan will be holding its summer preparations in Toronto, they'll also be taking part in a friendly tournament during that time so I'm guessing TFC will be one of the teams they'll play.

That's pretty cool, I don't think a Champions League club has ever held it's preparations in Canada before
Pachuca puts entire team on transfer list You don't see this happening everyday

“Years have gone by and I’ve finally learned to accept myself for who I am: a beggar for good football.
I go about the world, hand outstretched, and in the stadiums I plead: ‘A pretty move, for the love of God.’
And when good football happens, I give thanks for the miracle and I don’t give a damn which team or country performs it.”
-Eduardo Galeano
Don't follow Mexican league as close as I should, but what the hell is Pachuca trying to do? Weird.
DeRo is a backup as he does poorly because he is not fast enough to deal with quick sides and without room to operate he gets frustrated and disappears.
