Answer: Ronnie O'Brien

After no TFC players were selected by the voting process (33% fans, 33% sports media, 33% league), MLS All-Star team manager Steve Nicol hand-picked O'Brien as one of his coach's selections. Strikers Danny Dichio and Jeff Cunningham as well as Jim Brennan were later added as reserves.

Answer: They are all TFC supporters clubs

U-Sector was founded in 2000 to support Toronto and Canadian soccer teams, taking their name from Section U of Toronto's old Varsity Stadium. The Red Patch Boys were founded by local soccer fans with the creation of Toronto FC as a group dedicated to supporting the team inside the stadium, around the Toronto area and on the road.

The name is derived from a Canadian military unit that became known to axis forces in WWII as "Red Patch Devils". Tribal Rhythm Nation is a club representing the multicultural side of Toronto featuring a drum section at TFC home games.
