    CrossFit: Day 9 of Bootcamp 

    3 rounds for time:
    - 75 feet of walking lunges
    - 40 overhead squats
    - 20 back extensions

    I completed it in 8:48.

    177 lbs on the home scale.

    Oh, and Toronto FC beat Houston Dynamo 1-0 by a goal from Andy Welsh.

    Games: Some were won, some were lost. 

    Toronto FC broke the ice with their first goal today. They beat Chicago Fire 3-1 in a very eventful game. I’m glad they finally scored, the atmosphere in the stadium was nuts. It was great to be there.

    Mars Meets Venus, the mixed touring team I play for had our first 3 games in the TUF tournament. Things didn’t go according to plan, as we ended the day 0-3.

    Game 1 was against Ottawa A, who were seeded #2 overall. They spanked us, 13-1. Ug-go-ly.

    Game 2 was against London, it was marred by some jackass on their team calling fouls on most plays. I think it was 13 – 8, but it may have been worse.

    Game 3 was against Quicksand from Waterloo. They were great people and we lost in the end 12 – 7.

    It was fun.

    TorontoFC vs. New England Revolution. 

    I’d like to see TorontoFC play a 4-4-2 instead of a 3-5-2. We seem to be getting pulled apart as our wide midfielders aren’t getting back far enough to help out.
    I’d prefer to see another dedicated defender.

    Greg Sutton, again, played superbly.

    Additionally, someone fire the TV announcers for the New England Revolution. No cares about your daughters learning to play soccer. No one. Shut the hell up. And shouldn’t you be impartial? Instead of rooting for the Revolution? Jackasses.

    I sent this to feedback@mlsnet.com:

    I was disappointed that the TV commentators for the TorontoFC at New England Revolution were clearly biased towards the Revolution.

    I would expect that impartiality would be a requirement for announcers.

    Thanks,
    Tyler

      Announcers are like politicians. They can pretty much say what they like. I mean, like, how boring would it be if they just stuck to monotones and stats the whole game, eh? It is the d*** referees that need to be impartial!! :-)

      Jim, I’m with you on the refs, but I still think the announcers should be less of the homers they are.

    MLS Game First 

    The MLS “Game First” initiatives look like a great idea.

    One of the issues I have with watching MLS games is the lack of crowd noise. Hopefully, we can change that this year.

    PS. I’m vibrating with excitement. It begins this Saturday.

      Looking for xmas presents for my three grandchildren.The TC Scarves look fine but I’m not as keen on the model. He’s probably too expensive. Where can I buy the scarves “a la carte” at this time of year? Any hints? jordan

    • Tyler Weir 3:32 pm on November 11, 2007 Permalink

      Jordan, I would give Toronto FC a call at 416-360-GOAL (4625). The scarf I’m wearing is the U-Sector fan scarf, the official TFC scarves are a bit different.

    Hotness.

    Go U-Sector.
