    Still possibly the only known RPB to appear on Masterchef Canada.

    tfc v cd aguila preview. how will Mariner's style translate to ccl? why is koevermans on our ccl roster for this stage, taking up a spot we might theoretically need if we make some trades, and just how many coaches have aguila used in the last few years. alll this and more.

    O'Dea Signs with TFC - Not Mellberg But Not Bad


    http://viewfromthesouthstands.com/2012/08/odea/


    Darren O'Dea signs for Toronto FC. I take a look at his signing plus explain why I think it was how Julian De Guzman left Toronto that meant that it was O'Dea and not Olaf Mellberg that joined the Reds...not that this was necessarily a bad thing.

    TFC Drops Three On The Road


    http://viewfromthesouthstands.com/20...e-on-the-road/


    A video look back at an all to familiar scoreline Saturday night as Toronto FC drops three points away to the Chicago Fire.


    I try and explain that there is there is a difference between losing away without really a chance to be compete to losing away even though you had an excellent chance to win or at the very least draw. I also take a quick look at the MLS table and Darren O'Dea's likely debut next week in Columbus.

    Would a 3 year price freeze and half price concessions before kick off be enough to get you to renew your season tickets?

    Before you answer, know that MLSE gets just 25% of the sale of concessions while they keep over 93% of ticket revenue. Slight of hand or true concession?

    Weigh in http://www.wakingthered.com/2012/8/8...mlse#storyjump

    Hassli & The Wooden Spoon Derby


    http://viewfromthesouthstands.com/20...n-spoon-derby/


    Post game video thoughts on TFC's 2-2 draw Wednesday evening versus Portland at BMO Field. I also take a look in detail as to what Hassli brings to the team other than just an ability to pot goals and I also ponder how Paul Mariner might set up the defense Saturday vs Kansas City now that Darren O'Dea is available for selection.

    It's O'Dea Not O'Dea


    http://viewfromthesouthstands.com/20...odea-not-odea/


    Thoughts on the latest disappointment from Toronto FC as the Reds are outclassed and outscored 1-0 by Sporting Kansas City at BMO Field on Saturday. In this vid I take a look at the play of a dead tired Torsten Frings, I explain the proper pronunciation of the name of our new Irish centre back & I take another look at the defensive structure of the side ahead of the Columbus match on Wednesday.

    Ever see Moneyball?

    The idea is based on a baseball theory that teams don't buy players. They buy wins and to buy wins they need to buy runs.

    Well, I wondered what would happen if you took the theory of Moneyball and applied it to Toronto FC. When Koevermans went down to injury, they looked to replace him. Using Moneyball, they should be looking to buy wins and draws. To buy wins and draws they need to buy goals. To buy goals, they need to buy players that can convert shots on goal to goals. Given the limited shots TFC takes, they need to be able to convert shots into shots on goal.

    How does Hassli stack up against Koevermans on those measures? What does it say about our future potential to "buy wins and draws"?

    I stopped by WakingtheRed to ask

    #TFCPriceFreeze2013


    http://viewfromthesouthstands.com/20...icefreeze2013/


    In this post game video I take a quick look back at the abject road loss that saw Toronto drop three more points on the road, this time in Columbus on Wednesday evening. I also take a personal look at the increasing level of apathy and resignation among the hard core support for this team, I take a quick look ahead to the last meaningful home game of the season, I come out in DEFENSE of Paul Mariner and I ask Toronto FC if its time to announce a 2013 price freeze.

    Dunfield Does The Job for TFC


    http://viewfromthesouthstands.com/20...e-job-for-tfc/


    In this post game video blog I celebrate the heart shown by TFC midfielder Terry Dunfield, the "bedding in" of Darren O'Dea, I take a look at Paul Mariner's surprisingly decent road record as TFC Head Coach and I try and get a grasp on the scale of the task ahead for Toronto on Tuesday as they face Santos Laguna in the return of the CONCACAF Champions League.

    TFC To Play Out The String


    http://viewfromthesouthstands.com/20...goutthestring/


    Post game video thoughts on a late loss to Mexican side Santos Laguna in Champions league play. In this V-Blog I take a look back at the disappointing end to the campaign, the fact that the remaining games are essentially meaningless now and I offer TFC a suggestion as to how to perhaps make these last few games productive.

    Keep this one for your renewal decision. The Impact's 2013 pricing relative to 2012 TFC pricing. How much would TFC have to cut prices just to match this responsive offer?

    ^ tictoc, good stuff too

    Here's one. TFC and the Leafs have a lot in common, like trading the future for hope of a short term fix.

    Imagine if TFC kept its draft picks? Here's what we gave up and what we got and why this practice must be stopped:
