MEGA-OOF As of late Saturday afternoon there is a new bottom to the barrel that is MLS. Toronto FC has started the season with 8 losses in 8 games breaking the old record of 7 from 7. Its a horrible way to start, especially in year 6 of the team's existence that has been pretty brutal on the field from day 1. The fans of TFC has been amazing, one of the real bright spots in league history, and were a big part of ushering in a new era of fandom that has since spread of most of the other 18 teams. These people deserve better. A lot better. And sadly for them, with the ownership that is in place I don't see it changing a whole lot. Toronto FC is owned and operated by a group of people that control an NBA and NHL team that has just as loyal a fan base but also have no clue how to build a winning team. A nightmare is the best way to describe the whole scenario. Here is how press has reacted to this new low: -Daniel Girard of the Toronto Star: Toronto FC suffers record eighth straight loss to start MLS season -Gir
