After another crushing defeat, the Filibuster podcast is here to help you with your sorrows. Jason, Adam, and Ben talk about D.C. United versus Minnesota United and the disaster that was defensive midfield. We talk about the turnover, the throw-ins, and how there is no answer currently on this team. In the second segment we get into Adam's Funtime News Roundup Time™️. We talk about Nigel DeJong (and name a cocktail after him based on the request of one of our Patreon subscribers), and talk about Kristian Nemeth and Marcus Olsson, one of whom we're excited about and one of whom we disagree upon. We also talk about the rumors about D.C. United's ownership and how their investment in the stadium is escalating. Finally, we bring on Kristin Knowles from The Vocal Minority to talk about D.C. United's next game against Toronto FC. We discuss Sebastian Giovinco and ask her what having depth on your team feels like. We also get into Victor Vasquez's role, Raheem Edwards, Alex Bono taking away the starting ‘keeper job from Clint Irwin, and how TFC fans feel about Jozy Altidore and Michael Bradley. We of course ask her how to gameplan Toronto FC, and get into all aspects of their back line. Give it a listen!

Ok, well WE would have gotten the slice of pizza as the Reds drew 1-1 with the woeful Colorado Rapids. It was a cagey affair with the opposition happy to foul and happy to cramp up at every opportunity in order to drag the result into a draw. At the end of the day the ploy worked as Toronto could not get any real momentum after Benoit Cheyrou left injured in the first half. It was a game of real highlights and lowlights, as Giovinco, Clint Irwin and Jay Chapman all looked good, but the Rapids did their best to make it an ugly match with plenty of stoppages. The referee did not help the cause as he was unable to control the antics and the match ended earlier than it should have, but quite simply it was a game to move on from and forget.

Despite the summer heat, it was raining goals courtesy of Giovinco, who broke his goalless streak and helped TFC secure a much needed 4-1 over DC United. The win keeps the Reds on pace with the rest in the conference, but also gives the Italian DP a much needed boost of confidence. It wasn't just Giovinco, as the supporting cast was up to task of providing key passes and scoring chances, with important appearances from Tosaint Ricketts and Jozy Altidore. There is much to look forward to once the likes of Clint Irwin, Will Johnson and Michael Bradley return.
With nearly ten added minutes to the end of the match, referee Ismail Elfath chose to decide the result right at the end on a dubious foul by Drew Moor on Julio Baptista. Earlier in the half, Jordan Hamilton had similar contact by Joe Bendik for a non-call and TFC supporters are right to feel aggrieved. It is another poor and inconsistent display by PRO referees to decide all three points. Aside from the controversy, there were several storylines, such as: Clint Irwin v. Joe Bendik, Cyle Larin v. Jordan Hamilton, as well as a solid performance from Jonathan Osorio.
Toronto FC earn a rare three points against a perennial contender, as they drop the LA Galaxy 1-0 in a gritty affair that kept Giovinco off the scoresheet but others pulled through for the win. It was some other key players, such as Benoit Cheyrou, Clint Irwin and Drew Moor, who all contributed to keeping TFC in the match and in a good position to net the winning goal. It was a packed house and the 12th man was in full effect to also give the Reds a level of support that has not been seen in years. Overall, it was a great night and solid result to look forward to Vancouver midweek and Orlando come the weekend.
The Reds drop points again at home, only able to get a point through a scoreless 0-0 draw with rivals, the Columbus Crew. TFC had their chances, especially by way of dynamo DP Giovinco, but he was not clinical in finishing. Clint Irwin was up to the task at the other end of the pitch, keeping the likes of Federico Higuain and Justin Meram in check to preserve the point. With the Copas looming the loss of Michael Bradley will be huge, but also presents an opportunity for other players to step up and claim their position with the club.
Even though TFC have an obscene amount of chances on goal, enough to say they could have won 5 or 6-0, the 1-0 victory over FC Dallas was a solid victory to keep them well on pace atop of the Eastern Conference. It was a comprehensive display throughout the pitch as Clint Irwin was up the challenge with key saves, the midfield was dominant against a tricky Dallas side, and Giovinco again was pulling all the strings creating chances for himself and his teammates. It was a good result, with some red flags on finishing, but if it begins to come together, TFC could be making the statement they are a legitimate top side in MLS.
episode 6 and our challenge to get a player interview has been achieved, Clint Irwin joined us as our special guest. Its been a fantastic few weeks for TFC, and we look back and forward to the season
Toronto FC did the job they needed to do, which was get three points and hit Bill Manning's magic number for the first eight games of 2016. A 1-0 over DC United, while most of it was in TFC's end, showed strong defensive character as Clint Irwin had another strong outing and the defenders in front of him each played an aggressive, gritty match. The early Giovinco goal also showed some cohesion starting to form in the midfield as four players were involved in the sequence and this bodes well for two more tough away games before finally getting the home opener on May 7.
The Reds did well however to come back from an early deficit to draw with the Revolution 1-1. There were many positives to look at from this match, beginning with what could and should be close to the ideal starting eleven. Clint Irwin is emerging as a noticeable upgrade between the sticks, and there was a glimpse of what the attack could look like if Jozy Altidore and Giovinco reestablish cohesion and work off one another. It was a bigger picture result where if the team stays healthy and gets in sync, it could be the start of a good run of form.
