Red with a honeycomb centre. Like TFC's 2010 defence!
The stories out of TFC training camp's first day started leaking before the ink was dry on the medical needles. At least that's my understanding of needles. Might explain my scurvy. Anyhoo... with roster spots galore and a plane warming up on the tarmac for a flight to Turkey, names have begun to pop up on the potential passenger list aboard AeroWinter - direct flight, non-stop to Antalya.

The Vancouver Whitecaps have gone 14 straight games without a win, a streak that started against the Philadelphia Union all the way at the start of the 2011 MLS season. That streak has gone on despite the play of designated player Eric Hassli and fellow striker Camilo Sanvezzo.

In the first meeting between the two sides back on March 26, the Union's defense consistently frustrated the hot headed Hassli to the point where he began to slip up with his behavior.
