It’s been difficult coming up with a new way to describe the 2019 season for the Vancouver Whitecaps (4-10-8), but of all things this week’s release of the Cats theatrical trailer has offered up a perfect analogy: the crafting of something done in genuine earnest resulting in the unintentionally horrifying.
With or without the comparison to anthropomorphic felines, it certainly doesn’t get any easier for the Whitecaps this weekend as the Blue and White return home after a mid-week jaunt across the continent to hose a San Jose Earthquakes (9-7-4) side that finally appears to have recovered from its own years at the rock bottom.
