Not that this is the MOST important issue, but that Kone penalty just earned Canada Soccer a minimum $8 Million in prize money. Even after bonuses and the extra travel, that’s massive considering the dire financial state our federation is in. 🇨🇦 Semi Finals!!

Not going to lie...I’m a bit numb a the moment. Broadcasting soccer was a childhood dream, and it never really felt like a job. I’m grateful for all the memories and the support of listeners/viewers from the USL days to the very disrupted @MLS 2020 season. Time to regroup.

I’ve heard rumblings from a few avenues that the CPL may be on the verge of a rather significant broadcast/media rights deal. If true, what a fantastic achievement for the League & CSB leadership. The chain reaction from that kind of deal would be immense. #CanPL 🤞🏻

What can you say? The “Second Class Citizens” from Canada pushed Uruguay to the very limit with a rotated squad. Obviously being more ruthless in front of goal is a key area to address. But Jesse Marsch has revitalized the program while wearing acid wash jeans! #CanMNT

Canadian soccer, as a whole…from the top of the pyramid, right down to your local park…can be beautifully encapsulated by one single moment from today; Milan Borjan doing keep-me-ups at 3-1 up in the tie as fans cheered deliriously. As a nation, we’re all bark, no bite.

Nobody wants to say it, because our country gets easily romanced by flicks and tricks and individual moments, and Davies is our most talented player. But the next manager needs to find the right role for him, where he’s not plan A B C D and E. Cost us in Qatar as well.

The value of the #CanPL rights agreement won’t be announced publicly, but it’s understood to be “jaw-dropping” for a startup. The survival threshold of a new league is around 10 years, so this deal almost ensures long term survival & growth. Congrats to @ticatmitchell & co!

Borjan has shaken off the odd “1 big error” now making 1 big timely save per game. Larin has pounced at critical moments. But the biggest #CANMNT surprise for me is Sam, who has shown relentless work-rate, game IQ, and above all, BRAVERY over these last few games.

I remember 39 years ago today. I came downstairs and saw the Province newspaper on the kitchen table. The cover had a photo of Terry Fox & “1958-1981”. I could tell my mother had been crying. I went back up and did do myself. Incredible the impact one human being could have.

More imminent signings with Hwang (MF 22) and Khemiri (CB 21) the right age, on the up, decent value and good sell on potential. Striker will be the next priority. Hoping there’s smoke to the Azmoun (24) fire. Excitement ramping up.

The panel unanimously said “not a red card” ie no violent conduct or attempted strike. So, why is L G-P holding his face on the floor? Shouldn’t he be fined/suspended the way Masato Kudo was retroactively 2 years ago for “drawing” a penalty?
