Watching sports show yesterday the commentators were bemoaning that in the playoffs we will have to face either Montreal or Boston in the first round and probably Tampa Bay in the second round and the comment was, "The way Montreal and Boston are playing, not sure you want to face Montreal or Boston."
It was a real woe is me comment, I interpreted that comment as Toronto has no chance in the playoffs unless we face weak teams. I took it as a lack of respect towards Toronto.
The thought popped in my head, do any other fan bases / teams want to avoid Toronto in the playoffs, the same way the TV personalities say we want to avoid Montreal, Boston and TB?
I thought our skill and speed was our intimidation?
