Myself and several writers from TheGoodPoint.com packed ourselves into a small room - with no heat or electricity - and came up with...
The Good Point's 2010 Athletes of the Year!
Our selections are a collective winner. It's true.

Blue Jays vs. TFC
Mark down this date: July 27, 2010
The Blue Jays defeated the Baltimore Orioles 8-2. About 16,000 people were at the Skydome.
Toronto FC beat CD Motagua 1-0. About 18,000 people were at BMO Field.
To quote Bob Dylan, "The times, they are a changin'."

Ugly Sunday
It was an ugly Sunday for Toronto's sports teams.
The Argos lost the East Division final. Next week's Grey Cup - which will take place at the Rogers Centre - will feature Winnipeg battling Saskatchewan. The Blue Bombers aren't even a true East Division team. They're only in the East because Ottawa folded. When there is a team in the Nation's Capital, Winnipeg moves back to the West.
I don't know what was worse: seeing the offense sputter, or watching Damon Allen on the sidelines, eating his guts out.
Regardless, no Argos = no Gery Cup sellout. Toronto is not a football town. It's sad, but true. And to think, some people want an NFL franchise. The NFL in Toronto would be a complete disaster. Not just for the NFL, but also for the CFL.
On top of that, the Raptors lost to Golden State. I'm having a tough time trying to figure them out. They're a "Jekyll and Hyde" team. You never know what team will show up on the court. No consistency = no success. Let's hope this is only temporary.
The Marlies were defeated by Rockford. Unfortunately, no one in Toronto cares about the Marlies. Do I even need to bring up the disastrous 2007 AHL All-Star game?
At least Toronto's Dwayne De Rosario had a nice Sunday.

All For One!
Having witnessed my first ever Toronto FC match from the stands of BMO Field yesterday (TFC defeated New York 2-1), I have come to the following conclusions:
1. Soccer fans are not like the fans who watch sports at the Rogers Centre and the Air Canada Centre. Soccer fans are a different breed.
2. Danny Dichio's tears cure cancer.
