Wherein Our Heroes perform a pulse check and revisit our Top 10 “Wants” for the Canadian Premier League’s inaugural season. We also dish out some true Canadian musical gems in the hopes of finding the ideal pump up/montage song, and appeal to you, the listener, to share your own. Lastly, we discuss the nature of fandom in the wake of Felipe’s recent comments after the Whitecaps’ loss to the LA Galaxy.
