They do have expensive tickets, but it's kind of like getting furious at the Browns or Bengals.

"____ grew up as a huge maple leafs fan and has always wanted to play in toronto" regarding every single major free agent is irritating. also bc and ontario have a really dumb slap fight feud so it comes up from that angle too.

My dad’s friend had a monkey growing up, apparently those old mail order catalogs had some pretty crazy stuff in them. His strongest memories of it was that the kid would try to ride his bike down the street with the monkey perched on his shoulder, while it panicked and poo poo all over his back. There’s a metaphor here, if I could just put my finger on it. . .

quote:

The Deep Post: Why Do Dom Capers' Defenses Always Seem to Come Up Short?

Green Bay Packers defensive coordinator Dom Capers is widely considered to be a defensive genius.

Since 1986, he's been coaching NFL defenses. He started as the defensive backs coach with the New Orleans Saints before becoming defensive coordinator for the Pittsburgh Steelers. He was the first head coach of the Carolina Panthers and has been a special assistant to the New England Patriots. When looking at NFL resumes, his is one of the best.

So why can't he stop a mobile quarterback?

quote:

Dom Capers is still a quality defensive coordinator. That said, his failure to adjust his game plan and the reliance on an outside blitz will see his scheme become less successful. His defense is built to attack a pocket quarterback, not a 6'5", 240-lb quarterback who can run a sub 4.6 in the 40-yard dash.

This article is from September 2013. Since then, the Packers have had several more defensive collapses in the playoffs or while contending for the playoffs.

I remember overhearing serious debates about whether Gretzky or Pavel loving Bure were the greatest hockey player of all time.

Fortunately they were able to come to agreement that clearly it was Bure. :suicide:

It's loving weird.

It's mainly other Canadian cities hating Toronto. Traditionally, the Maple Leafs are at home every Saturday night on national TV, forever, regardless of how well the team is doing.

CBC has done its best to try to end that over the last couple seasons, working Montreal into the prime Hockey Night In Canada slot, having the Leafs play road games on Saturday nights, and having a new TV deal that allows for multiple games on at once.

Also, Vancouver is the worst. Dumbest Stanley Cup riot ever in 2011.

A ton of basketball fans hate the Knicks even though they haven't been good since the 90s. A big part of it is New Yorkers thinking people should care about their awful team.

It's probably the same in Toronto.
