After over a decade of suck, the Leafs finally have a decent team. Not a great team, nor one that will contend for a Cup this year, but a decent one. Yet Leafs fans are crowing as if they're about to win their 3rd straight Cup. Since Philly entered the league in 1967, the Leafs have not won a Cup. Hell, they haven't even reached the finals.

During the same time period, the Flyers have won 2 Cups and been to the finals 8 times.

Dear Leaf fans, get back to us when your team actually accomplishes something. You are just embarrassing yourselves.

No, but when referring to multiple people of a first or last name, using an apostrophe before the "s" is the proper way to do it.

Also, as far as I know, Ryan Leaf is divorced.

They were like this 20 years ago when they thought Sundin and Cujo would get em a Cup. It's kind of cute, in a sad and pathetic way.

It's cute that you're lambasting the Leafs for having their last cup in 1967 when the Flyers' last cup was in 1975

If we had won that round, it would have set off a series of events that would have ultimately prevented us from drafting Matthews (and winning Stanley Cups for the next three years).

Have you guys never seen Mr. Destiny?

It's one of Jim Belushi's best movies - and that's really saying something, because he is a damn fine actor.

It's like making fun of a person who hasn't gotten laid in 30 years when you haven't gotten laid in 25.

It's very very sad for both people

From MIT

Names—pluralizing

There are really just two rules to remember, whether you’re pluralizing a given (first) name or a surname (last name):

If the name ends in s, sh, ch, x or z, add es.
In every other case, add s.

Similarly, there are two fundamental no-no’s:

Never change a y to ies when pluralizing a name; and
Never, ever use apostrophes!

Examples:

Incorrect:

The Flaherty’s live here.
The Flaherties live here.

Correct:

The Flahertys live here.
Sandra’s two favorite boyfriends are Charleses.
There are seven Joneses in Stuart’s little black book—three of them Jennifers.
The Hopkinses are coming over for dinner tonight.
