Bastian Schweinstieger was in Toronto tonight playing for Chicago against Toronto FC. He didn't leave happy. TFC won 3-1 and at the end of the match was involved in a very long, intense discussion with the referee. My feeling was that he was giving the ref a quick explanation of some of the rules of football. I try to defend the MLS but there are some refereeing decisions which are absolutely ludicrous. It was telling that Toronto's manager, Greg Vanney, was having an equally involved discussion with the assistant referees. It's unusual for a winning manager to be so angry.
I was back and forth between the football and the Maple Leafs, playing game number 5 of playoff series against Washington. It went to overtime, again, and my superstition was proved right, unfortunately. This time, I watched it and the Leafs lost. It's a good thing, maybe. I'll say again; that game is so frantic.
