When worlds collide. Panini stickers printed on the cans of my favourite craft beer brewer. A Brassneck x Como Taperia collab beer with football legends (including Kenny Dalglish) on the cans. 👌

200+ Caps fans have travelled down for the game vs San Diego despite astronomical T’giving weekend flight costs. Many flew to LAX and drove the rest of the way as flights were up around the cost I’m told.

So we could conceivably see Canada in with Croatia or Uruguay as second seeds. Then Norway as third seed and Italy as fourth. 😬

AFC Toronto start 8 Canadians in the NSL final. Rise start 7. Good to see that when it matters most there’s this many Canadians on the field.

Tuned in for the penalties in the Canada v Ireland U17 WC R32 game. 9-8 loss for us in 10 rounds of spot kicks but the testosterone-fuelled shit-talking between the two teams was off the charts.

We created a searchable database with all 20,000 files from Epstein’s Estate
Easily find every mention of Trump, Clinton, blackmail, and potential sex crimes in the thousands of private messages between Epstein and his close associates.

So the same day the current issue of BTP came out I went to an all-club BCCSL meeting. Discipline was on the agenda. We were told that the day before a U11 girls game had to be abandoned because parents from both teams got into a large fight. 😐 gregors-newsletter-aefa0e.beehiiv.com/p/behind-the...

That’s 3 games without a goal now for #canmnt and still very few locks for starting positions on this team. From gk to striker, still tons of uncertainty as few have grabbed the chance to make themselves invaluable ahead of the World Cup.

U17 Men’s World Cup; Surely there’s never been a round robin group that finished this tightly. Hard lines Uganda and Chile!

“Free” speaks to the integrity of this club. Many charge significant amounts to attend an “open” tryout. This stuff matters and contributes to perception and credibility. Well done Rovers.
Want to play for the mighty TSS Rovers? We have a free open tryout for men’s team players November 30. Come join our club and give us another name to sing.
