Preseason is a time for new beginnings - the chance to start afresh with a belief that anything can happen.

That was certainly true for Toronto FC as they opened up their training camp in
Bradenton last week. The troubles and uncertainties that surrounded the club in
recent years have been replaced by a new hope and optimism after an incredible
offseason transformation that has included the signings of three new Designated
Players, Jermain Defoe, Michael Bradley and Gilberto. I was in Florida for
Torontos first training session. The energy and enthusiasm was on a completely
different level compared to other years. Perhaps the biggest difference is that
the squad has already been assembled and most of the key pieces are already in
place. A far cry from a year ago, when Nelsen was heading into his first
coaching job with a preseason squad filled with trialists. "Its a wee bit
different, Ive got to admit," Ryan Nelsen told me after training in Bradenton.
Its nice to have a proper squad together all pulling in the right direction. As
you can see by today, the work ethic is there, the character is there and
everybody is extremely excited." The difference compared to 12 months earlier is
evident in all areas, but especially in personnel. Over half of the squad
currently in Florida were not with the team for preseason in 2013. However,
Nelsen and the players are talking up the fact that the core of the team that
finished the season is still in place. "We havent changed that much, weve
probably changed the same as most teams, but weve done it in big names so it
makes it even more dramatic. But thats what we had to do with this club. Thats
why what we did last year had method in our madness. Weve got some big names and
we will have to gel them in, but its a progression and we have to keep moving
the club forward." The theme Nelsens rookie season as head coach was "short-term
pain for long-term gain," and things have now changed quickly. With
multi-million dollar signings amongst a re-shaped squad, expectations are high.
But after dealing with a tumultuous first year with the club, Nelsen laughed off
the suggestion that there is pressure on him to find a winning formula quickly.
"Theres absolutely no pressure," he said. "Whenever you put yourself in a
situation where youve brought in good players, everybody else thinks there is
expectation but for us we just try and improve every day. In everything we do,
we try to become perfect. Whatever people think from outside we dont really
care." "I knew the league last year but we didnt have the right pieces to be
successful. Now I think we are moving in the right direction, but Im still
learning as well. Ill always keep learning. When I stop learning I may as well
give up," he said. Theres a new face heavily involved in Torontos training
sessions this preseason. Englishman Adrian Lamb has joined the club as Fitness
Coach. He has previously worked with Newcastle United, Preston North End and
Aston Villa, and he was at Blackburn Rovers during Ryan Nelsens time as a player
at Ewood Park. Nelsen told me Lambs preparation and attention to detail is
immaculate, and that was easy to see during my time in Bradenton. He has very
clear ideas of what he wants from the players and was impressive in the way he
communicated to them. Lamb will bring a very professional approach to the teams
conditioning this season and will be a key addition to Nelsens staff. In 2013,
Toronto FC won just six matches and missed the playoffs by 20 points, but Nelsen
and his staff have now been handed the tools they need to turn the ship around.
The foundation for success will be laid over the next six weeks, as Nelsen and
Co. make sure their team is ready to hit the ground running when the season
opens in Seattle on March 15th live on TSN.

2009.JERSEY CITY, N.J. -- Richard Sherman, Russell Wilson and Marshawn Lynch
deservedly draw the attention for what theyve done in getting the Seattle
Seahawks to the Super Bowl. Players like Jermaine Kearse, Walter Thurmond and
Malcolm Smith are just as big a reason why Seattle is facing Denver in Sundays
championship game. Seattle may have one of the better starting lineups in the
NFL, but the depth that general manager John Schneider and coach Pete Carroll
have amassed is equally impressive. Its the reason they can rotate eight
different defensive linemen. Its why when Brandon Browner was injured and
Thurmond suspended, Byron Maxwell could step in and the play in Seattles
secondary not suffer. Its a regular refrain in the Seattle locker room to hear
teammates say the Seahawks reserves could be starters on other teams. And there
is some proof: in the past year 23 players once with Seattle have spent time on
the 53-man roster of other teams. "Its crazy because were always saying our
backups could be starters. We always say that," strong safety Kam Chancellor
said. "Those guys, people dont see this, but in practice those guys play just as
good as us. Theyre making plays, getting the ball. Those guys contribute on
special teams. Our special teams are probably one of the best. "Those guys put
in work on special teams and it just goes unseen." When Carroll and Schneider
took over, there was a revolving door of roster moves --839 in total since
before the start of the 2010 season -- that followed in an effort to make a
roster that was competitive beyond just the starters on each side of the ball.
They wanted a depth chart that was the envy of the NFL. They wanted their
reserves coveted by other teams. They wanted guys they were going to be released
grabbed off the waiver wire the second they were made available. Seattle got its
wish. Of the players released in the past year, five ended up in Jacksonville
and four landed in Kansas City. "John and I have joined together aggressively to
compete at every single turn, at every opportunity whatever it may be, to see if
theres something in there for us," Carroll said. "Hes done a great job of having
the competitive will to keep pushing and fighting and clawing and scratching to
have the opportunity that has sent us down thhe road early on with the hundreds
of guys that came through the program.

. " Kearse, Thurmond and Smith are just three examples of players
not counted on as full-time starters that have proven invaluable. Seattles seen
contributions from Michael Bowie, Clinton McDonald, Jeremy Lane and
Heath Farwell just to name a few more. Kearse was an undrafted free agent that
signed with Seattle in 2012 and became a needed option as a third and fourth
receiver this season with Percy Harvin and Sidney Rice suffering through
injuries. Kearse finished with 22 receptions and four touchdowns in the regular
season, but his biggest catch came in the NFC championship game when his 35-yard
TD grab in the fourth quarter gave Seattle a 20-17 lead. Thurmond missed four
games late in the season when he was suspended for violating the leagues
substance-abuse policy. But hes started three games at cornerback this season
and is Seattles best option as the fifth defensive back covering slot receivers
-- a big emphasis this week with the amount of times the Broncos throw. Smith
has shown the same kind of versatility at linebacker. Hes played both outside
spot this season, first when Bruce Irvin was suspended and later when injuries
to K.J. Wright and Bobby Wagner forced shuffling. "Through all the stuff we have
gone through there has always been a guy who stepped up and made plays," Wagner
said. "Last year it was Walter, this year it was Walter and Maxwell and guys
like Malcolm, everybody. We have a bunch of players that if someone went down
can step in and do a great job." One of the ways Seattle was able to create such
a dynamic roster came from the three-way quarterback competition that Carroll
had last season and which Wilson eventually won. It sent the message to the
entire roster and to any free agents -- big-name or small-time -- that Seattle
was a place they could come and have a chance. "You could tell looking at our
board of players that we had fast, confident, intelligent individuals,"
Schneider said last week. "Guys who knew they were going to come in and compete
for positions because the previous year we had a three person quarterback
competition. "You know you have a shot when you have a three person quarterback
competition as a player." Cheap
