The Philadelphia Union will travel to Toronto in May and September and host Toronto FC in July, according to Canadian Soccer News, during the 2012 MLS regular season.
The Canadian news outlet got hold of TFC's 2012 MLS schedule ahead of the league's official release of each team's schedule and it shows that the Canadian club is one of the Union's standard three game Eastern Conference opponents this upcoming season.
The Union will host Toronto on July 7 at PPL Park in Chester, PA, marking the third time that the two teams will play at the stadium since Philadelphia's 2010 inaugural MLS season. Philadelphia will play away at BMO Field in Toronto on May 26 and September 15.
With a 1-0-1 record versus TFC at BMO Field, and a 1-1-0 record at PPL Park, the Union will not complain about having to travel to Ontario twice in 2012. In their victory in Toronto, the Union set a franchise record for goals scored in a 6-2 win.

Off-Topic...
Hey Scott, would it be possible to have some kind of a link dump for MLS Super Draft coverage since its coming up? I know you mentioned before some places to go for coverage besides Ives, just thought it’d be a fun way to get informed and excited for the upcoming draft.

Once I get my computer issues under control, certainly.

if memory serves me...
… didn’t MLS say schedules would be out by the end of the year? I guess they never actually said which year…
Any rumors out there about when we can expect to see the full schedule?
Jon Tannenwald says 2pm today is the release. http://www.philly.com/philly/blogs/thegoalkeeper/136703628.html
Good. Now my wife can stop pestering me to find out which weekends are free this spring and summer.

nice
I don’t use Twitter. Haven’t quite figured out the point to it. (But I’m old, so that’s to be expected, I guess.)
I've been having computer troubles so I didn't post it here.
My apologies to the site only crowd.
