The good folks over at Vocal Minority, who have decided to supplement their audio words with some written ones, have a snazzy new website – the header art alone is worth the visit – and seeing as it was nearly two days old already, it was about time it featured a piece by yours truly.
As such, a bit of a shade-throwing post went up yesterday. Pure speculation, but an interesting confluence of circumstances surrounding New York City FC's decision to select Daniel Lovitz in the MLS Expansion Draft and then trade him back to Toronto; reminiscent of similar shenangians back in 2006 – and could perhaps lead to the birth of a new rivalry – check it out.
Welcome
Welcome to Partially Obstructed View. We are each restrained by the limits of our own perspective, but when we meet to share information a clearer picture of the truth can be revealed. Comments & criticisms are welcome.

Beyond POV-FS – TFC Top 30 Countdown: #16 Jackson at Waking the Red
Another contribution to Waking the Red's massive end of season review, counting down through every player to take to the pitch for the club in 2014.
Ending the first half of the list, at number sixteen, is the elusive Jackson, a player that many never quite took to heart – as foretold by his place in the countdown – despite being one of the better contributors to the side this season – with four goals he had the fourth most for the club in 2014.
Check it out - as well as the rest of the countdown

Beyond POV-FS – MLS Week in Review: 2014 MLS Cup Final at Canadian Soccer News
A full review of the MLS Cup Final between the Los Angeles Galaxy and the New England Revolution is up over at Canadian Soccer News.
Like most finals, it was a close-fought affair, rather than the run-and-gun encounter fans always hope for – at least the winner proved to be a moment of pure class – check it out.
Also, never got around to posting the link for the review of the second legs of the conference finals, which can be viewed here, if one is so inclined.
This endeavour, recapping every match played throughout the MLS season is a massive undertaking – the end of the season comes with a certain amount of relief. That said, thanks so much for following along, it has been a fun season and with two new clubs joining the league in 2015 it looks to be getting even better.

Beyond POV-FS – TFC Top 30 Countdown: #24 Ashtone Morgan at Waking the Red
A first contribution to the annual end of season countdown of the players who represented Toronto FC this season is up over at Waking the Red, looking over the year that was for one Ashtone Morgan.
A massive endeavour each year, the countdown cycles through the full gambit of the TFC squad, starting with those on the periphery, riding the pine or having just made their way onto the fringes of the first team and continues all the way to the best player on the team – just who will take the number one spot this year?
Check out the post on Morgan, who fell from tenth down to 24th with a severe lack of playing time, and see who else has been discussed at the full countdown. Posts come out daily (or so), so be sure to follow along as the off-season dissection is fully underway.

The usual weekly MLS review went up at Canadian Soccer News yesterday, covering the Knockout Round and the First Legs of the Conference Semifinals of the 2014 MLS Cup Playoffs.
No separate Canadian Content post for the playoffs, as Tesho Akindele was the lone Canadian to see the pitch – he did score a goal though, which was something, helping Dallas to knock out Vancouver last Wednesday.

Beyond POV-FS – TFC Season-Ending Press Conferences: Tim Bezbatchenko and Greg Vanney
A pair of summary pieces went up over at Waking the Red earlier this week, recounting the second day of season-ending press conferences, featuring Toronto FC's General Manager, Tim Bezbatchenko and Head Coach, Greg Vanney.
It was a pretty interesting day, both for things said and those left unsaid; a fitting end for an interesting season, full of twists and turns, positivity and disappointment.
Plenty of reasons to be optimistic; it will be a very busy off-season for TFC.

Was surprised how much we had to say about the club that keeps on disappointing….

Got it; got it; need it; got it; need it…The Economics of Panini Stickers
The Economist dug into the secrets behind the much-beloved World Cup albums in their series, The Economist Explains.
In an effort to rekindle the joy of youth, I myself have been indulging a little bit of packet opening – it is quite fun, after all.
Fans lucky enough to attend Toronto FC’s last match prior to the World Cup break would have been able to get their hands on a free edition of the album – the packs however, will cost you.
It is available in podcast, or written form, here.
Expensive stuff – needless to say, most albums will be left sadly unfinished; happy hunting!

POV-FS Out Loud! – The Vocal Minority Podcast, Episode 35 #Foreshadowing
The Crew over at VMP, comprised of friends from Waking the Red and The Yorkies, were kind enough to have me on this week’s episode in the role of New Tony, as Old Tony has gone missing over in Blighty.
A review of the opening two months of TFC's season, a chat about the Ottawa Fury Voyageurs Cup debut experience - and my $2-bus ride, and plenty of other pearls of wisdom neatly daubed across the hour.
Do check it out – follow on twitter – subscribe on iTunes – and all that jazz.
It’s great fun; let them know what you think about the show as well, catch up on old episodes, contribute to the bitchyblanks to win great prizes (prizes consist of admiration and appreciative nods and hmms – not and hmms may not be as enthusiastic as one desires).
