    I am shocked at the Soolsma news, did not see this coming. I thought when he did play that he was playing well so hopefully this is a move to free up space and money for a solid signing. I guess it's wait and see.

    p.s. Great feeling the morning after a win....even if I can't speak 'cause I lost my voice.

    Sad to see Soolsma go. Think back to the first game last season against Vancouver and how he played. Compare that to what we saw towards the end of last season and this year. Losing someone who proved they could up their game and be effective in this league.

    I can't wait to see Parky's video he made with his new buddy.

    mornin d.
    fuck me, what a game.



    Catharsis or katharsis (Greek: κάθαρσις) is a Greek word meaning "cleansing" or "purging". It is derived from the verb καθαίρειν, kathairein, "to purify, purge," and it is related to the adjective καθαρός, katharos, "pure or clean."

    Does Mariner know that he is allowed to start a different line up each game, he has the option of sitting 7 players on the subs bench and he has 3 players who can be subbed into each game?

    MLS players need to start being fined for taunting the opposing fans. Mattock's display after his second goal last night was ridiculous.

    As of today we are -2 when it comes to International players being released.

    If this was indeed about cap space and room:

    Nick Soolsma - $110k
    Joao Plata - $50k

    Miguel Aceval - $150k

    ???

    I'm sure there is more to come,let's hope we get someone decent.

    How the cap room works,is it now only half of what we were paying them,or TFC can claim their full salary.

    Someone told me it is 50% of their salary after July 1st.

    I dont think "The Toronto Eagle" crest is anything more than piggybacking on Torsten Frings nationality and German culture stereotypes. Lets not forget that alot of groups in North America adopt the Nazi German culture for their ideologies. Do we really wanna be know as White Pride FC?

    ... and in reality the eagle has nothing to do with TFC or the city.

    It's Hawk and not eagle,read the explanation before you make stupid assumptions.

    and Serbian white eagle is over 600 years on their crest,educate yourself before you write something retarded like that.

    for those who didn't actually read the logo explanation, here it is:


    Isn't there a perch on top of the West stand that has housed a hawk since season 2?

    I do find the soccer ball expination to be interesting thing for them to point out since they don't really follow that on the first team right now.

    The fact is that is one shitty fucking bird/guardian and what really irritates its that its a generic logo thats used by white pride pricks.

    About the only thing right about this logo is the "spread wings" which signifies the building up of expectations and tossing the kids away like bath water.

    The sword represents the Billy Blanks martial arts movie shot in Toronto called, "Talons of the Eagle" and the banner represents the general culture of the FO which is "Mission Accomplished".

    This team is showing new lows and lack of new ideas.

    Are you a fan? do you actually enjoy this team? do you enjoy football? or do you only enjoy making fun of and tearing to shreds ANYTHING the team does?

    The worst part of that logo is that it says KIA on it. It's bad enough to have brands all over every jersey.. but on the actual crest? ughhhhhhh
