  1. He is 30. Plus, they are still a few years away from contending. The price the Cubs asked from the Jays last season was Stroman and Aaron Sanchez.
  2. I don't think many people thought Cesar would remain after the World Cup, anyway.
  3. I'd sign up, but I really don't know how often I'd get to play.
  4. I still haven't decided which team to use in my franchise. Leaning towards the Braves, despite BJ Upton.
  5. Firing Torts was smart. Linden probably has already talked to several potential GMs, and I doubt any of them wanted to come in and have to go through all the shit that Torts did again. Now, whoever is the new GM has a clean slate. I think this is a positive for the Canucks. Why Randy Carlyle hasn't been fired yet, I don't know.
  6. Phew! The Raps gave up a huge lead, but were able to win in the end. Lowry and DeRozan were clutch late.
  7. I think the Bucks just sold for $550 million. The Clippers are easily worth double that.
  8. Except the NFL tried to take the Raiders from Al Davis and it was told it couldn't do it in court. I just hope the NBA's constitution DOES grant Silver and the other owners the power to do it. It would be great if Magic's group ended up as owners.
  9. I think Silver and the NBA got this right. I just hope the NBA has the legal right to force out Sterling and that this doesn't get bogged down in court.
  10. I just picked up NBA 2K14. It's great. Fantastic game. Tanked with the 76ers in year one, drafted Embiid and signed Dwayne Wade, plus got Caron Butler and Kirk Hinrich for my bench. Suddenly I have the 3rd best defence in the NBA with Carter-Williams being an All-NBA defender and Noel moving to Power Forward. Of course, game four of the season, torn MCL for MCW.
  11. I've only been a real fan since 2005/06, myself. Was only a casual fan before that. So as a fan that watches every Leafs game I've only got 1 playoff series. That's it.
  12. It's the best baseball game each year, looks amazing, and is one of the highest rated games each year.
  13. No Defoe and possibly no Bradley for tomorrow's game. In fact, it sounds like 1/2 of Toronto's starting eleven is hurt right now.
  14. Leiweke's safe. He is here for all of MLSE, not just the Leafs.
  15. I didn't even watch tonight's game. Just couldn't. I've been watching this team almost every night since 2005, and I've got one playoff round. So frustrating.
  16. Sometimes, Michael Bradley just looks like he is playing against kids or something. He is so good. He changes the look of TFC going forward and defending.
  17. I think I'm going to cheer for Columbus if they keep the 8th spot.
  18. Well, looks like the Leafs are done. Columbus would need to go 2-3, Jersey would have to lose, and the Leafs would need to win all three remaining.
  19. Just when the Leafs needed them to win, too. I'm on board with Columbus making it. Toronto needs to clean house, if they claw back into the playoffs it will save some jobs that shouldn't be saved. Truth - It's almost like you hate to be that team that barely makes it every year and is out in the first round. Look at the 76ers over in the NBA. They totally dismantled their team and are tanking in hopes of getting a superstar. Totally different sports, with different variables involved (a lot more players on a hockey team), but it's a similar idea where the fans want them to just be so bad that improvement eventually comes out of it. I don't know if that made any sense at all, I'm rambling. But without actually seeing last night's game, The Flyers have been playing really well recently, but just haven't been able to close out games. It's incredibly frustrating. Hockey is different. You can retool in one off season and go from 10th to 3rd. There is more parity in hockey then basketball, and it takes smart drafting over several years to build, so tanking is not as palatable. I want the Leafs to make it in, but I want Carlyle gone.
