Comedy Platinum out of Toronto - "Canada's Team" quest for the Cup

[Bloody Brian Burke]

Raptors have won 10 out of 12 quarters in this series and could/should be leading 3-0

These 9 pm weekday start times are killing me so, yeah, I really wish they were playing for rings tomorrow night so I'm not exhausted again on Tuesday.

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

Meanwhile, the idiot who pushed Lowry when he went crumbling into the seats in the 4th is a fucking minority owner of the team!



Combined with Lacob's wife pissing off Beyonce, not a great night for Dubs ownership.

Sarnia goggles >>> Beer goggles.

I haven't seen that in so long and I just realized that the funniest part of that might be that the beer goggles version of Selma still doesn't clear the bar.

Marleau's house in Lawrence Park is up for sale if anyone's got $12 milli lying around.

/$17 milli if your name is Corey Perry, apparently.

Somebody must have told Matt Devlin to cut out the Canadian city calls when the Raptors made three pointers last night. I'm surprised we don't see Kamloops on the above graphic.

He doesn't do it on the road.

/Also, watch the ABC feed. It's incredibly more tolerable even with Jeff Van Gundy's hating ass.

Steve Simmons is in Oakland covering the Raptors and asking asinine questions at press conferences. He's just as much of an asshat covering basketball as he is covering hockey.

Good.

It's an old graphic, no? I don't think it's from last night.

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

Thought this was good.



/They followed this up with 5 weekend subway closure tweets, 1 bus line closure and advertising Presto cards that only works in about half the system, is delayed by a decade and over budget by a billion. BART shouldn't have much trouble responding.

One win away.

Have a feeling the US media will spend the next two days marginalizing the Raps accomplishment

It has now been exactly one year since a US based team has won the Larry O'Brien trophy. When will the drought end?

Have a feeling the US media will spend the next two days marginalizing the Raps accomplishment

It's already been the narrative for some time now.

Their star player has the personality of Connor McDavid and their gritty bench player looks like this right now:



Meanwhile Leaf parents are negotiating contracts for their kids in the media and saying their son is the best player in the world and their gritty guy has been suspended in the second game of the playoffs for two consecutive years.

The Raptors are what Leaf fans wish the Leafs were right now.

I can't believe they just shrugged off that flying elbow from Livingston last night, that was all kinds of dirty. Oh well.
