I take the kick in the pants, as nothing more than a motivation that weve got to do better.Despite an outlay of millions on designated players Michael Bradley, Jermain Defoe and Gilberto and firing manager Ryan Nelsen and five assistant coaches 24 games into the season, Toronto (11-15-8) finishhed seventh in the Eastern Conference — eight points out of the playoffs.
