Last night, D.C. United picked Toronto FC up, crumpled them into a little ball, and slammed them down into a trash can. The 7-1 scoreline was a club record high score, as well as the first time in MLS history that a team had seven different players score in a game. It also reflected, on some level, the buy-in of the respective sides. United? Bought in with every fiber of their collective beings. TFC? Well, they’re saying they are, but you probably saw the game.
So now that we’re done the laughing and carrying on, me (it’s Jason, and I can report I’m not sunburnt or blind after this 5:30pm kickoff) and Ryan Keefer had some things to say.
