Toronto and Philly must be sister cities or something. Desperate citizens that will take pleasure in everyone's misery so they can pretend to not be miserable for just a glorious moment in time.
From living in Eastern PA for ten years and Toronto for like 20, they are remarkably similar. Toronto and Philly fans are cut from the similar cloth. A Leaf cup win would rival that Eagles SB.
And I wish knew why people would destroy their own cities like that. I hate that destructive shit. Cheer in the streets, set off fireworks, chant all night. But leave property alone.
Maybe save that energy for a real ass protest about health care or education cuts
It's the human condition. Philly fans are just extra angry for some reason lol
I was born at the wrong time to be a Toronto sports fan lol. June 23rd, 1988.
Jays win the World Series in '92 and '93 and I have 0 memory of it, how the city was, the hype, etc. I lived in a suburb at the time (oakville).
Then they don't make the playoffs until 2015 and go to back to back ALCS's. Now they're hot garbage again, rebuilding poorly.
The Leafs, my biggest sports team love, haven't won since 1967. My mom was 6 years old. She's 57 now lol. 58 in July. It was the last year of the Original Six when the NHL was only 6 teams so to me, any championship before 1967 doesn't count. They haven't even been to the finals in that time lol.
The only championship feelings I've had are when Portugal won Euro 2016.
Raptors enter the league in 1995, are trash like most expansion teams should be, go to the playoffs with Carter from 2000-2002, then he leaves and the team is trash again except for two Bosh years in 2007 and 2008. Now we're in the golden era of basketball in the city and it'll likely peak in the coming week. Either we chip or don't. Either way I don't see us coming back here since this is a team of vets and Kawhi isn't enough (if he even stays).
If Raps don't win this year it'll just be the continuation of a long standing tradition of Toronto sports futility.

Kawhi and Anthony Davis both on Utah next season.

Cry me a river. Try being a Boston/ NE fan. It's been months since their last title and I have to wait like 5 hours to see if the Bruins win the Stanley Cup tonight.
I mean, that's life. Terrible people always the ones getting ahead.
"It's devastating, mostly for Kevin."
Oof. I'm going to just assume that came out wrong.
Not sure about that one, Steve. Your calf muscle is closer to your knee then your ankle. Calf muscles don't roll up like an elastic losing tension.
Trust me I have a PhD in Armchair Medicine.
Ugh. He had a chance to score the most points in the NBA history. I feel so bad for him! I hope and wish him the best in his recovery.
Yeah it's already a win with getting the first pick. This is just the bonus, in my eyes.
AD to the Lakers then lebron in a Celtics uniform would be weird.
Inspirational to hear this kind of positivity out of the man
I'm optimistic that he'll be back and balling on fools just like he was before
Give your power to Kevin brehs
Amen.Inspirational to hear this kind of positivity out of the man
I'm optimistic that he'll be back and balling on fools just like he was before
Give your power to Kevin brehs
to keep kyrie? damn simmons already had his bags packed and his cab to the airport paid for!
Yup, they saw it work for Toronto. Ainge going to do everything to try and keep Kyrie and get AD even if it's only for a year. And LA keeps on being the most irrelevant team in the league.
