    Nailed it.

    Good to see more anti-Montreal people come out in this thread because I swear, in earlier rounds (here and on reddit) 90% of TFC fans were actively rooting for Montreal

    Even the mod team doesn't all think the same about this. Let's face it, the only thing we all have in common is supporting TFC.
    MLS is a tough, physical league, that emphasizes speed, and features plastic fields, grueling travel, extreme weather, and incompetent refs. - NK Toronto

    Fair points in response to my post. I guess the constant roster changes in MLS make it easier for me to instinctively support Montreal in these situations - as in, when it's Oduro and that kid Porter fresh out of college against a bunch of random Central Americans, I'm more inclined to root for the guys I'm familiar with (save for maybe a couple Impact mainstays)

    Can we move on to more pressing CONCACAF issues now?

    I'd like to know if there's anything we as supporters of this tournament can do to change that cheesy music they play on every single highlight reel. I'd rather hear the commentary in Klingon or have Rock And Roll All Nite played over top. ANYTHING is better than that music.

    Yeah those highlights are awful. And the pipe in fake crowd noise too, don't they?

    I'm so conflicted with the MTL game now. I want success for Canada, I want the MTL market to get some buzz and my friend John Smits just got loaned to them for the game. However, as the Impact get deeper and deeper, I've realized.. I don't want them to win this before us. And, honestly, now that a Mexican team probably won't win it, I've fairly happy. Costa Rica is a team/country I don't particularly hate either as their tactics aren't Honduras or Panama-esq.

    You definitely make it hard on yourself.

    Canada plays next against Dominica in World Cup qualification Round 2. I know you know this but I'm just mentioning for the simplification I actually subscribe to.

    Canada plays in June.

    This is just Montreal. Good opportunity for your friend, though.

    CMNT is and will always be my number one team. I'm there every game and usually with 10 or so friends I forced with me. I just see the connection between healthy/successful teams and a healthy/successful Canada. With that said I'm missing all the damn Canada games because I'm still here until July. Ugh. The worst.

    So true, shocking from both sides. The attempted stomp on Piatti and Soumare tugging that guy's hair stood out for me.

    Yup, questionable call. One goal. It looks like the fix is in...

    Montreal will probably lose this game 4 or 5-1 and be out.
