What question was he asked? If you look at his follow up comment, it takes the edge off a bit. But I think the question is important, because it gives context.

That makes much more sense. Phewf.

No excuse? Seriously? You know that Iceland is good right? And is it worth noting that we conceded in consecutive games to Barbados!? I think we have the capability to beat Iceland on our day, but it is far from expected, so, you know, calm down. 😉

Give us a break! The criteria is above, they just need to have played one game. Base it on the whole year or just international play, we don’t care. And fair enough on the timeline, but them’s the breaks when you have a bunch of middle-aged folks with no spare time just chipping in when they can. (Or is that just me?) And one last thing, this is probably the most transparent of votes for anything anywhere! Even if you are a little uppity on the process.

Is this a spoiled ballot?

I’d like to see MLS teams based in Canadian cities qualify for the CCL through their domestic league. I’d like Canada’s berth to be given to a team that plays in Canada.

Whoa... that's some statement. Do you think we have Lenarduzzi coaching or something?

I'd love to see Haiti beat Costa Rica 1-0 to put a giant logjam together in group D. I think it would then come down to tiebreaker 7 (maybe), or tiebreaker 8!

This has to be the worst WCQ format ever. Honestly, has there ever been one that was so lopsided? We havent done enough to make the hex, that’s just the way it is. We’re flirting with this idea that we are a upper team in CONCACAF but the fact is that our results say otherwise. I like our chances vs the bottom teams in the region, but our beat case scenario was always going to be the intercontinental playoff.

This is just further evidence that the TFC, Whitecaps, and Montreal should qualify for the CCL through the league in which they play. I eat that the TFC won the Voyageurs Cup, but if the American League goes on strike and they go with it, there’s not much more argument those three are representing MLS. Also, wouldn’t Forge be the CPL representative as the best team because they won that one game at the end?

What kind of salary was he on with the Whitecaps? Maybe it’s just as simple as a 26 year old going where the money is? I know that I sure would if I was him.

John Herdman has always been his own biggest fan. He pats himself on the back any chance he gets.

Seattle won two out of those three, so regardless of "how" the TFC played, Seattle proved themselves to be better - more "clutch," more "chutzpah," more "desire," and all the other ridiculous descriptors. Let it not be lost that the TFC finished ninth(they had a GD that was ONE better than DC), and had an average season. And then they won two games away and are in the running for best team of 2019. Herein lies that problem with playoffs, that they not only devalue the regular season, but they mislead fans into thinking who the best team is. And while I'm here, Seattle was only six points better. It's a disaster in my opinion that LAFC is going to be considered a failure this season simply because they didn't win in the playoffs. They set the record for points in a season, but will be an afterthought.
