MLS v. EPL teams

Currently watching the KC v. Man City game and caught some of the Toronto v Tottanham game. MLS teams seem to be holding their own fairly well. Granted, some of these teams aren't playing with their starters

 

Any thoughts on these games so far? I'm looking forward to seeing the MLS All Stars v Bayern

The only thing I didn't like about the KC game is that they subbed out their entire starting 11 at the half while Man City kept theirs in. Basically waved the white flag

Toronto actually seemed like they were trying to win their game

First half of the game, Spurs were locking down Toronto and had a 2-0 lead. Honestly, it was kind of boring to watch. The second half had Toronto subbing in 8 and all 11 for the Spurs, and the game opened up a lot more after that. Made for a good game overall, and a nice show from both sides.

 

Still glad we won, but that's not the point of it for either side. It's a chance to give the younger guys a chance to compete on a world stage and fight for spots in the starting 11 without it being a game with any repercussions. So far, I'm enjoying this off-season tour - The Seattle game was awesome.

    • T-Mac is a nickname, Tet is a shortening of Tetairoa. Like you said below... your name is Jonathan, I could see "Jonny" being considered a nickname, but Jon isn't a nickname, it's a shortening of Johnathan, see the difference? And if your mom named you Jonathan for it's biblical significance/meaning, because she was very religious, I think it would be different. T-Mac is Polynesian, so much in their culture has deeper meaning for them, particularly names.  So for his mom to feel this way, I highly doubt it's just because she likes the name Tetairoa and not Tet, it's much more likely than not to be because the name itself has a deeper meaning in their culture.   Particularly as T-Mac himself has often talked about how much his Polynesian heritage means to himself and his family. And no, I'm not saying all this because of how much he's my guy, if he was just "normal american" and his name was Jonathan and he didn't like fans calling him Jon, I'd probably just say tough poo.  It's that he's Polynesian and I know things like names have a much deeper meaning in their culture than they do in ours for the most part. For whatever it's worth, a quick google search.......
