Cool cat and apparently a twat. It's okay to call it soccer. CanMNT, CanWNT, TFC, York United, AFC Toronto and AS Roma (not always in that order).

One fun thing last night was sitting near Holly Ward's family and watching them watch her come into her glory in her first professional match. While players like Quinn, Stanton and Spencer were standouts, seeing local players play in front of their friends, family and former team mates was magic.

As a York fan of Italian heritage, I can easily get behind a player with the name Altobelli. Refer to 1982 World Cup.
ALTOBELLI AGAIN!
What a strike from York's new No. 9--slipping in between Enyou and Dada-Luke before perfectly guiding the ball past Irving at a tight angle.
A 22-minute brace off the bench for Altobelli, now on pace for 56 goals this season.

The biggest learning of the late-19th to mid-20th century was that trade wars are bad, and they lead to military wars. It's one reason why the UN Charter, pushed for by Americans, specifically condemns tariffs that violate trade agreements. Trump is undoing a 150 years of learning and progress.

That Canada has long had one of the best women's national teams in the world without ever having a domestic league is quite remarkable.
