Why so quiet?

Well that was something. Toronto FC loses 2-1 to the LA Galaxy, a team that has only won ONE game this season and was missing Landon Donovan who accounts for six of their thirteen goals. Embarrassing doesn't even begin to describe it. Questions abound as to what is going to happen and the change we need to right this ship. Trying to stay optimistic but I'm not really down with being one of those fans who cheers for the sake of cheering, or goes to BMO to get wasted - I'm there for the game and seeing the team perform and right now the scowl is getting deeper. Yesterday should have been a slam-dunk and we were given an opponent on a silver platter and we couldn't bury them. That is worrying. It went down like this ...

Well the weather was nice!


This is the South End on a big night.


This was it yesterday - no joke, one flag, hardly any chants. No message - get the message?


People are clearly over this. That first one was "Mo has to Go" but was up for 2 seconds. Wouldn't want to get thrown out on your ear.




Annnnd within five minutes LA is up 1-0. The perfect start!


What a first half. Well with TFC only able to score 1 goal looks like we're heading for a tie. At least I could get a date if I need one.


Oh look, a manufactured TFC fan. They might have to do this more often now to replace all the ones they've kicked out.


What the?! Dichio! Well we've scored our one goal let's hope LA doesn't find another ...


Oh shit. Buddle.


This was an amazing play *insert fecicious tone*. LA has a player down, then this other tool falls down and is sitting there, but it's his boot that is all messed up, but he's lying there like he's in agony!! THEN the LA keeper gets the ball, so he'll kick it out of bounds, right? NO! He plays the ball to his player to start an attack!!! The ball gets intercepted by us, so we should just say EF YOU and keep the play going, but nooooo we get the ball and kick it out of bounds. This was the only time this game I was yelling.



And no joke on the next play Vitti goes for a header and hardly touches this guy.


This was the cherry on top. We're in extra time (five minutes) the ball goes back to Frei who can't figure out how to handle it, he's backing up, looking up, backing up, TRIPS AND FALLS and the ball rolls out of bounds for a LA corner. And of course they take about two minutes to do it and at this point all you can do is laugh.


Why so glum chum?


At least some people care. Don't want to get into a huge commentary about MLSE but there is a sinking feeling that TFC is being run on the same template they run their other teams, which is marketing based, not results based. Pretty sad ...
