Chrissy and I went to the TFC game on Sunday afternoon.

It was HOT. New York kind of hot. The bottom of my flops were melting on the bleachers. In spite of that and the fact we lost 3-nil to the Chicago Fire (Blan-coooooh), it was still great to be there! TFC play was pretty flat throughout but there's a long list of injured players at the moment. (the TFC have signed keeper Kyriakos "Kenny" Stamatopoulos - a kid from Markham who's played for Greece and Norway).
The most entertaining point of the game was when fans buried Blanco
with streamers during a corner kick.
Things in section 105 were a little flat too because the kid who sits two seats over (and is a true TFC superfan) was not there. His mom and little brother had the seats instead. He clearly did not get his cheerleading abilities from her. Actually, the last time we were there, he brought a girl and was considerably less entertaining than usual.

Anyway, after the game we booted it back to Oakville for a barbecue at Dray and Alyson's new house. Great house! And it was full of children. Two newborns - Hilary and Charlie - as well as Grayson, Meredith and Dylan. Okay, it may not sound like a lot of kids but it sure seemed like a houseful.
