    Bryan Gutierrez of Chicago Fire is going to go somewhere big soon. That kid has a huge future.

    USL debuted yesterday on CBS. I hope they are successful with this. MLS could certainly use the competition.

    If this was just plain light blue I would've bought it

    At least it's the nicest of the three templates

    Looks too much like the classic Argos colours:



    Time for a Bill Manning conspiracy theory?
    MLS is a tough, physical league, that emphasizes speed, and features plastic fields, grueling travel, extreme weather, and incompetent refs. - NK Toronto

    This club has an allergy to red.

    What's wrong with red/green?

    Keep the blue and white disease away.

    So looks like choices were red / brown, blue or green

    Doubt teams had choices (SKC is red/brown)


    This league is so stupid at times...these choices were probably known a year ago.

    Montreal had their home opener last night. So it would appear to me that TFC doesn’t play at home in March because the league demands it, rather we do it because we’re trying to clear out more available dates for the Argos when they start their season.

    Stade Saputo isn't winterized and doesn't have under soil heating like we do. Olympic Stadium wasn't available to them this year either (where they usually have early season home games). However, just because we can hold a game, should mean that we have to.

    That being said, I hate the schedule this year. We only have 2 home games in June and 2 in July. Add in Leagues Cup in Aug it will most likely be 2 home games then as well (1 Leagues cup vs the Mexican team and 1 vs DC when the regular season resumes).

    6 home games in the summer period is terrible, as we're only competing with baseball (and a bit of CFL).

    Gah, NFL football here we come. Much prefer the goal / no goal signals. Need to keep the flow of the game going.

    It's not NFL if you aren't sitting there 4 hours or more, lol.

    Still tied for fifth after Charlotte’s 0-3 loss today. It’s difficult not to imagine Philly ahead of us with their 1.86 wining percentage… otherwise it’s a legit 5th.

    Thanks for that...interesting to watch. I remember him setting out on that journey but then never heard anything more.

    10 game check in

    Despite only having 11 goals and being at a -2 GD, this team has that dawg in 'em, stealing 7 points away so far at 2-3-1. Along with a pretty great 3-1-0 record at home, we're in 4th somehow, 5th by PPG. How are we feeling lads?

    You cannot help but feel good based on where we’ve been these last few seasons. They are clearly over performing at the moment but the team fights hard and that makes them worth watching.

    My worries about ongoing improvement are really down to Manning’s continued presence and Hernandez’s lack of experience.

    Yep, as someone lukewarm on the announcement of Herdman, I'd support putting his statue outside BMO field at this point. Given what he inherited, and the injuries we've had, I'm over the moon with where we're at. And I still maintain a first round exit in the playoffs is a great season given that mess. We'll lose games throughout this season, but that doesn't change the job Herdman has done and is doing.

    But, still continue to see evidence that Manning is an albatross on this team, and that continued into our major winter business this year which has yet again held the team back. We have a firm ceiling while he's still here. The jury is out on Hernandez, there's not much there to tell me he'll turn into a star, but it's early.
