Well, at least we get to watch Sidney Crosby…

The Leafs have been lackluster, even by the low standards we Toronto fans already have of the team.  It is quite interesting how a fan base can expect their team to win every game, yet be so expectant of failure at the same time and I’m not sure any other fan base is as good […]

Maple Leafs Set to Tangle with the Habs Tonight at the ACC

The Toronto Maple Leafs, recently on a streak of futility having lost their last three games after an excellent 3-0 win against the Ottawa Senators, are going to be hosting the Montreal Canadiens this evening at the Air Canada Centre.  Toronto has played reasonably well this year against the Habs with a 2-0-1 record against […]

Toronto Tourism Tendencies: BMO Field

Probably the newest sports venue to be constructed within the City of Toronto, BMO Field is home to the newest member of Major League Soccer; the Toronto Football Club (Toronto FC for short).
There is not a whole lot to say about this field at the moment because of the newness of the venue, but if […]
