Also been hearing about Atiba Hutchinson coming to TFC, not sure how the finances would work but there was a few articles on that this week.

Yeah both Atiba and Aquilani are linked to TFC - and only TFC it seems - right now. No clue how it would happen.

When Giovinco hit his stunning free kick against the Philadelphia Union it got us thinking at Waking the Red. It was clear that it was one of the top goals in the history of Toronto FC but just what other strike would make that list? We put together a collection of our favourite goals (in no particular order) and want you, the reader, to let us know which goal was your favourite in club history.

Rude, but not untrue. When all of the major sports teams here are owned by the same general corporate conglomerate, and they're ALL embarrassments, they deserve to get called out publicly for it. It's unfortunate that these owners also own much of the local media so our sissy ass reporters can't call them out on it. Every goddamn Canadian channel I flip through here is basically owned by the same 2 companies. We have no business in Toronto calling out China's control of the media and their limitations on free speech when people here employed by Rogers/Bell can't say anything about their own employers. Okay, at least we don't resort to arrest/torture when someone speaks out, but it's not like people here can say anything they want without repercussions either. The sports and media scene here is a nightmare all around.
As much as I hate ESPN, we really do need more people publicly questioning these teams in this city and even deeper, the ownership here.
A short video clip from Citytv reporter Shauna Hunt has generated tons of buzz since it was posted on Twitter last night. In it, Hunt challenges an infantile group of men after they shout the bafflingly popular "f**k her right in the p**sy" into her microphone in the midst of an interview with soccer fans outside BMO Field.
At first it looks like she's going to ignore the immature act of sabotage, but the chance to hold these dudes accountable ultimately proves too seductive. "It's a disgusting thing to say...it's degrading to women," she firmly explains to them.
This response is refreshing partially because it puts the cat callers into the awkward position of having to justify their actions, which they completely fail to do (what a surprise). "Are you actually filming this?" is about the most articulate thing any of them can muster. Well done, guys.
