Crumbling? Hardly, as we are still 3rd in the East.

Though TFC's lack of scoring chances and the mounting injuries are clearly cause for some concern.

Huh? I'm a Revs fan. Galaxy beat us 5-1 last night. Looks like you guys had a decent draw. Hopefully you start firing on all cylinders soon.

Edit: MY BAD. Thought I was posting in the MLS thread last night

Well you posted your comment in the TFC thread, not the MLS thread?

TFC Plays at 9pm tonight on Sportsnet 360.

Would love to beat Houston again this season, but that will be really tough on the road.

Glad we got it back to 1-1.

And as I'm typing this we are now down 2-1... crap.

Defoe sitting on the bench resting for a midweek friendly.

He should have been the one to take that penalty kick.

What a crazy half. Fans in the stadium getting their moneys worth so far.

Meh, referee was terrible in the second half.

Glad we got a point, but a Defoe penalty kick in the first half could have meant three.

Now he misses the next game. An important one against SKC.

So glad Jermain Defoe has spoken out against playing the friendly on Wednesday.

It's so stupid to have these games in the middle of the season. July is busy enough.

Which would be a better soccer experience for a soccer noob?

So what did you decide on?

I took the TFC tickets because the AC Milan/Olympiacos game was too quick of a turnaround since it's this week.

Got tickets to the Houston Dynamo game October 8th.

Great choice. Though it's going to be cold at BMO by then.

Houston has been a tough opponent for us this season with games that have racked up a lot of scoring.

Yeah was banking on tickets for next month while the weather is good. Oh well hopefully the game has some real implications for playoffs.

Houston has completed a deal for the top spot in the MLS allocation order in exchange for midfielder Warren Creavalle, the 14th allocation spot and allocation money.

Don't know much about MLS, is this a good deal for Toronto?

There was so much hype for this team and I feel like it's simmered down back to normal.

It's not amazing, but nothing to complain about.

We couldn't have afforded the player coming in through allocation so it's better to get something over nothing.

Creavalle is young, a good defender and will happily come off the bench to help secure wins if we are in position to do so.

A little bit, but we are still sitting in 3rd in the East so fans should remain positive.
