Disney!! yah and signed midfielder Jacob Peterson



I'm pumped looks like TFC are going to Disney this year. I was just reading on the MLS website. I'm saving my pennies! hopefully they do it again next season. I drove past this complex about 4 years ago and it looked pretty desolate. its nice to see they are finally putting it to use! woo hoo soccer.

The Houston Dynamo, FC Dallas, New York Red Bulls and Toronto FC will get an early taste of MLS competition when the four clubs compete in the inaugural Walt Disney World Pro Soccer Classic at the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex in Lake Buena Vista, Fla.

The tournament, which kicks off the re-launch of the complex and is part of the 2010 ESPN The Weekend, begins on Thursday, Feb. 25, with the Dynamo taking on the Red Bulls at 6 p.m. ET, followed by a clash between Dallas and Toronto at 8:30 p.m. ET. The winners will meet in the championship game on Saturday, Feb. 27, with the losers of the opening matches meeting in a third-place game earlier in the day.


ALSO today TFC have announced the signing of a midfielder. Not sure they need another midfielder... UNLESS Mo is planning a trade. Who is he thinking of getting rid of? Anyways pur new midfielder is Jacob Peterson he was drafted a few seasons ago and has started to make an impact in the MLS last season before being struck down by the injury bug. I read most of this on the CBC website.

Toronto FC signed midfielder Jacob Peterson from the Colorado Rapids on Thursday, the team announced in a release.

Peterson, 23, was Colorado's first-round draft pick in 2006. He broke through in 2009 when he appeared in 23 games for the club, making 12 starts and tallying two goals and two assists. He missed the last month of the '09 campaign because of injury.
