The MLS Cup . . . The Day After

A day after the MLS Cup and I am still cold. Even though I was fully draped in a Canada Goose jacket, toque, gloves and fully liquidated with a couple cold beverages it was a cold and windy night at BMO Field in Toronto. Most of you who follow football are familiar that the Colorado Rapids won the big trophy at the end courtesy of a 2-1 victory over FC Dallas due to an own goal from George 'Lil' John in extra time. But here are five key take-aways from the game.

MLS Cup In Toronto - Convincing Friends To Attend

COLORADO! DALLAS! SUNDAY SUNDAY SUNDAY! MLS CUP EXCITEMENT ONLY IN TORONTO! CATCH THE MADNESS, CATCH THE TASTE! SUNDAY SUNDAY SUNDAY!

My friend and I have five tickets to this Sunday's MLS Cup Final at BMO Field. The game features the Colorado Rapids, champions of the Eastern Conference, yeah it makes no sense to me either, against FC Dallas, champions of the Western Conference. Both teams have never won the MLS Cup so a first time winner will emerge from BMO Field on Sunday night. The game should be a showcase event for the MLS, but I have to be honest, no one cares in Toronto and that's a shame.
