Horst has been suspended for the match.
No David Horst for Houston, he was just suspended for this match by the DisCo after an elbow to the head of Bernier last week.
A 0-0 tie looks like the most likely outcome.
MLS is a tough, physical league, that emphasizes speed, and features plastic fields, grueling travel, extreme weather, and incompetent refs. - NK Toronto
I don't know about that - we haven't had a 0-0 draw in the league since May vs Columbus, I feel like this team just isn't made for them this year. We've only had one other all year (vs Montreal in the 2nd leg of the Canadian Championship).
I'm going 2-1 Toronto, with Altidore scoring the winner.

Let's break this club record, get that 5th win in a row and hopefully some media will notice.
It could be 19 games in a row. The main stream media will never report positively on TFC. Think of all the awful Leaf, Blue Jay, Raptors, Argos teams of the past and how much the media was acting as cheerleaders, but with TFC now winning no coverage. When TFC is bad they attack. For some odd reason they are afraid of TFC.
Looks like bloom is out for tonight, could be interesting if beit can't go.
Go TFC
Go Columbus
Mark Bloom is with TFC in Houston, heading back to wife & kids after the game. No idea how focussed he'll be though, if he is playing:

Good times are coming for Leafs, sooner than you think: Feschuk
Toronto's coming auditions will make the Leafs one of the teams to watch down the stretch.

I wonder why Ricketts is on the bench, wouldn't he be more useful than Delgado in the midfield? Shouldn't we go in with our best players for the initial goal or two?
NYRB leading Montreal 3-1 after the half, a good result for us, one less team to look over our shoulder on the way to the Supporters Shield *fingers crossed*.
Ugh lightning/rain delay looming why does this always happen when we're in Texas???
Im also keepig an eye on the NYC game and its delayed due to lightnng.
Houston looks bad too

Is this another texas marathon like last year when they stopped the game for 3 hours and then seba scored a couple after the break to make it look close?
Think I passed out during that one, woke up and the game was still on.
Big difference, to name a few, is TFC was on a 3 game losing streak going in and had some serious keeper issues.
Onward and upward!
Flooding advisory for the Houston area, and it's supposed to be raining like a mofo for the next few hours.
I'd be surprised if this match starts on time, if at all.
