Before tonight, our worst loss in league play came in our ever second match at New England
Revolution. We lost 4-0 that night, and at the time, we were easily the worst team in MLS. Tonight,
in the most important regular season game we've ever played in, we lost 5-0, to the current worst
team in MLS.
Our home season ends today with a match against Real Salt Lake, who are notorious underachievers on
the road (sounds familiar, right?). If all goes as planned, the referee will blow the full time
whistle in the 75th minute...or not. Either way, if we don't win, we're done. It's as simple as
that.
See you at the match.
For the second straight year, we will play host to an expansion side in our home opener. Our 2010
home opener will be on April 17 against Philadelphia Union, on a nice and new grass surface. I find
the timing of the announcement a little odd, given the fact that we are nearing the end of a very,
very tight playoff race.
Sorry for the lengthy absence - I am back. And seething with anger. This isn't exactly going to be
a warm-fuzzy post about how I love TFC. It's a little negative, so brace yourself for it.
If football matches were only 75 minutes long, we'd be 3 points off of first in the league, and
we'd have a playoff spot locked up.
