    It's back! The TFC podcasts thread. Fed up with Toronto Sports Media not giving enough attention to sports not beginning with the letter 'H'? Fear not - just follow this thread and you can create your own TFC radio station. And feel free to post any links of your own that you come across.

    Re: The TFC Podcasts Thread

    Red Nation interviews Grant Wahl (author of The Beckham Experiment) here:
    http://www.garageband.com/mp3cat/.UZCPZCSG4q_n/01_Grant_Wahl.mp3

    The whole interview is worth listening to, but the TFC angle comes at about the 39th minute when he is asked about who the next coach at TFC is likely to be (the interview was done before the Preki signing) and Wahl gives his thoughts on Mo as GM. You'll like this one, Smenge....

    On a related note, I highly recommend The Beckham Experiment for any MLS fan if for no other reason than he paints a great picture of what life is like for an MLS player on a developmental contract, or making $30k a year and having to live in places like New York or LA. It's a real eye opener.

    Re: The TFC Podcasts Thread

    With TFC news being in scarce supply, so are TFC-related podcasts. So, I have to broaden the scope a bit. Anyway in the latest Footy Show podcast, there is discussion of the latest goings on in MLS as well as the breakaway NASL. Starts in the 33rd minute:

    Re: The TFC Podcasts Thread

    Again, not TFC-related, but possibly of interest: On the Dynamo Power Hour, there is an interview with Canadian GK Pat Onstad. Most of the interview is about the CBA negotiations (as he is one of the player reps). Interview starts in the 31st minute:

    The good folks at It's Called Football have pointed out to me that I don't ever post their podcasts, which are often TFC-related. So here are their most recent ones:

    Jan 15th - Discussion includes how likely there will be a lockout in MLS, TFC's draft hopes and what went on in the locker room last season:
