Every fan base overvalues their prospects but the problem with Leaf Nation is that there are so many of us. A small but vocal minority is still a ton of people. For example there were threads in the past predicting Wellwood would be a 100 point guy etc. Anywhere else a stupid thread like that would die a quick death but around here with so many people any thread even the dumbest can go on for pages and last days.
Also there are a huge number of homers in Leaf Nation. They are very vocal because well, they are homers, that's what they do. Online it can be obnoxious.
The other side of the coin is that there are a huge number of people who hate the Leafs for stupid reasons. We have sucked for decades but the hate continues so that just motivate the homers to be a bit more obnoxious and the cycle continues.
