“And now I’m coming home, I’m coming home to you again.” This New Found Glory song has been stuck in my head all week as we head into this weekend’s match against the Vancouver Whitecaps. Just me? That makes sense. At 32, I still have an unhealthy obsession with pop punk. I don’t think it’s a secret that losing Scott Sutter this season is a wound that has yet to heal. Sutter and PC made their way to Vancouver’s roster, but will they be coming home for the weekend to the Purple Palace?
Last season, Sutter seemed to save us in stoppage time again and again — not necessarily to save us with a win, but a to tie up the game (hello, New England Revolution and Philadelphia Union) to ensure the OCSC didn’t leave all three points behind.
