What do you think of TFC's schedule? Seems like it’s actually been pretty difficult and will continue to be. As much as I want to finally be in attendance for a home win this season, I wonder if some of their lack of results can be excused considering the competition?

To be sure, Toronto FC has had a pretty tough schedule thus far.

TFC began the season with three consecutive road games, and four of their opening five matches were away from home.
