Beautiful opening message! I can't believe they opened with a prayer. Love it.

Go USA!

Argentina should beat Canada. I hope they do.

Every time I have to work in Canada they always have the NHL on. They are obsessed with American sports. Why haven’t they tried to make their own league?!

It was started by the Canadians.
We just had the Bruins like a decade later.

Turn in your man card and your wife.

Looks like it’s based out of NYC. They have their headquarters on 9th Ave

You really only need one if you position her right. Work smarter, not harder.

Hilarious Canada is Bellicheck. Spying on opponents

If a soccer minnow in Canada is doing it, I suspect they're far from the only ones. Their problem was getting caught.

I honestly don't know what type of advantage it would give you either way.

You'd get to see the formations the opponent is planning on playing, but that seems a pretty minor advantage (given they'll be giving that away as soon as the game starts).

On the contrary, I think it's a positive and not a negative sign for the program that they are taking the games seriously enough to try to cheat these days. Being compared to Bill Belichick is never a bad thing, especially when you have a history like Canada Soccer does.

Sources tell @TSN_Sports early during Canada's Copa América group stage, Jesse Marsch was approached with the idea of using drone footage. I've been told Marsch was "dismissive" and said spying on opponents "wasn't part of his coaching philosophy." @TSN_Sports @TSNSoccer

Such integrity from Marsch.
