Is Cummins or Goings

It feels like we have offensive power but there is no way to harness the power. What is the Deal with Coach Cummins? I think it is way to late in the season to make a coaching change unless we get eliminated mathematically from the playoffs. On the Red Patch Boys website a lot of the talk in the forums is to chase after any MLS assistant coach Paul Mariner being the funniest looking one. I do not buy into this strategy. If Toronto have to start looking for a new coach I think they should try something like stealing a successful coach from another team OR try using a coach from another league with experience on a winning team.


I guess I should mention a little about the shitty game played over the weekend. First they LOST! 2-0 to Chivas and NO Jesús was not the deciding factor in the defeat. In fact it was the bum Sacha Kljestan. Ya that’s right Sacha! If you travel to Chivas website you will see that Sacha only has 2 goals this season, and yes they were against us on Saturday. What a bummer. For the life I me I could not understand why Coach Cummins screws with our line-up so much. Danny Dichio apparently did not make the trip because he has a mysterious injury that does not allow him to fly to the west coast. Sanyang came on late in the game at the 79 minute mark. Gerba came on to replace Amado at the 53 minute mark not sure why. Amado is very good at controlling the ball so without him on the field how on earth would Gerba ever expect to get the ball fed to him? Putting Barrett out to start the second half and taking O’Brian White out well that is understandable. Apparently O’Brian white had some work permit problems at the border the day before and spent a lot more time travelling to L.A. then the rest of the team. I would love to know what happened to Lesley Felinga I figured we would get to see him a little. In a game that spiralled out of control pretty quick why not play him? Argh… I guess this just brings me around to my original thoughts. Lets FIRE the COACH!!!

Can DeRo be Stopped?

Will DeRo break his career high with his hometown reds? I sure hope so. Since the move was made to sign THE HeRo DeRo I have contemplated many times whether or not it was a good move or just another move from MLSE to sell more tickets. Dwayne had his best output in 2006 while playing with Houston 11 goals in 30 games. This season he has 9 goals in 19 games with 9 games to go in the season. I think it’s fair to say that in the last nine games Dwayne has a very good chance at making this season one of his best to date. Hopefully his knees don’t give out while he tries to carry the rest of the guys into the play-offs. At this point of the season looks like giving up Julius was a good plan.

Our guys (TFC) are headed to L.A. to face Chivas tomorrow night. We will be facing our next 3 opponents on the road. ARG!$@# To top it all off it looks like Jesús might be in the line-up for Chivas on Saturday! Ya that’s right Jesús Padilla on loan from sister club Chivas de Guadalajara, and will be eligible to play against Toronto FC on Saturday. I heard they are giving out free T-shirts and kids can go see the game for free. Why don’t we ever get deals like that? I think I could pass as a 12yr old. I can at least think like one.

Not sure how I feel about this little bit of news out of Columbus. The Crew defeated the Puerto Rico Islanders 2-0 in CONCACAF Champions league on Tuesday. Really? I hate both teams. Columbus sucks cause they are in Columbus and I am still a little sore about getting bumped out by the Islanders a USL club!

Let’s not forget to thank Travis for his Uxbridge under 10 update the other day! Good job Travis make sure you keep the big white van in the garage.
