At least some of us don't cheer on other Toronto teams. Pathetic.

I'd rather see the Raptors win then GS. Then again, I haven't cared much for basketball in a long time. However, some of the rule changes they've made over the years are fantastic.

If they reduced the number of time outs to one per quarter I could maybe watch. Maybe.

I mean, they took the Grizz and Sonics away. Most basketball fans that I know here are either Raptors fans or bandwagon Lakers or Warriors fans.

There probably isn’t very many soccer fans here, but the US women’s team was pretty classless also, outrageous celebrations on their thumping of Thailand. A few Canadian TSN commentators called them out, but they also had lame defensive comments. A heard some of the commentators received death threats...

It’s definitely not for everyone. I feel the same way with baseball/golf lol, pace is just too slow for me.

This is my fear too. I realise reg season voting is done but any chance the league gets to (frank) the Canucks they'll take it. Sorry Petey...

Blake Price actually had a good idea th either day. When Bettman comes to the podium at the Draft, we should give him a standing ovation.

Just mess with him haha.

I know how this feels. That’s a lonely list, especially when you see Carolina and Tampa celebrating. It was really hard a couple of years ago when Nashville won the west.

It would have been extremely difficult seeing that group celebrate a championship before St. Louis.

Canucks - just win one before Toronto gets back in it. Hang tough.....

- bcallaway


Canucks beat T.O. in the finals. That'd be epic.

Could you imaging the hatred on these threads?
Could you imagine the poor ratings in the states?

I just gave up on the NBA years ago, and having a family I don't have the time nor willingness to get back into it. I've watched most of the Raptors playoff games, but that's about it. I watch football and hockey, sometimes a special even like the Masters or olympics or WC soccer.

It’s not funny


It was, however, kinda funny watching Brad Marchand cry and Boston losing another Cup final

Ya, I saw. Personally, I think that any travel in and out of the USA should be banned with massive walls built of the borders and just let the American people eat each other.....such a deplorable population...
