have been very lax in linking things here, one of many things that feels like it's getting away from me, but anyway, here's a wee rant about tfc's new marketing approach and all the special events they've got lined up this summer.

LMFAOOOOOOOO
Yes Paul!
Hilarious, I loved that last one
“Years have gone by and I’ve finally learned to accept myself for who I am: a beggar for good football.
I go about the world, hand outstretched, and in the stadiums I plead: ‘A pretty move, for the love of God.’
And when good football happens, I give thanks for the miracle and I don’t give a damn which team or country performs it.”
-Eduardo Galeano
Thanks man, I appreciate that, (and the reading every day bit as well obviously). can be a tough and ridiculously time consuming slog at times, but overall i'm still having fun with it. keep reading, we'll keep writing.
edit: that's in response to lucky strike's comment. haven't learnt how to use the new boards apparently, I really need to get back here more.

It was fucking pissing me off on Wednesday. They had that stupid dj behind the north stand playing music louder than the PA system during the trophy presentation. I couldn't hear a thing that was being said. You would think someone would have enough brains not to be playing loud while a cup was being handed out.
I know, I'm in 227 so could hear him as well. hate it with such a passion that he's there. I'll never go early and get a poutine and hang out in the beer garden any more because of him. I guess generally it's a matter of personal taste, and it's me being a grumpy old man, but yes, I agree that during any trophy presentation he should absolutely be shut up, don't care how many people actually like him.
Crazy talk. New strip now up at RedNation Online!
I put a new post on my fledgling blog on how fate intervened to give TFC its first win of the season. Word of warning, it's not for the faint of heart. http://typicaltfc.ca/
IF MLSE wants to reward Academy grads "handsomely" and make a statement about them as an organization, why are they paid almost half as much as NCAA grad Luis Silva?

Thanks Oldtimer. was just coming here to post that. choice quotes from Anselmi very neatly demonstrate why he's been the problem all along.
