Poetry Corner Kicks: Union 1 - Toronto FC 3

It’s the end of the road folks. A regular season that slowly faded into nothingness ended in much the same way. One could be tempted to despair, but when taking the long view, despair doesn’t seem appropriate. If I was told at the beginning of the year that by the end of the season we would have three rookies contributing meaningful minutes- one of whom would be competing for rookie of the year, Alejandro Bedoya would be on the team, Chris Pontius would have 12 goals, and we would make it to the playoffs but lose in the first round, I would have taken it in a heartbeat.
