I would think any bar would show the Leaf game.

Best cannolis I've ever had.

When I see a word that starts with a "c" and ends with an "s", I automatically think it's cannabis.

Need some pins to shore it all up (and hold the helmet down) but pretty much ready for tomorrow. Dog not happy with this at all.

 

[Mcquaid9519]

Heading to the game next Friday vs New Jersey, coming from PEI...anything we should experience pre/post game? What restaurants/bars would be best near the rink?

First time attending a Leafs game so looking to make the experience great.

Is this supposed to be Phil Kessel? or an orange version of Grimace?

Ok. This is the Leafs forum.

 

[BM14]

So game 1 of the ALCS, a 5-4 win against the New York Yankees is your baseline to compare fanbases?

Riveting.

Did you get word of the day toilet paper?

Still about a 2 hour drive to get to Detroit, you're still firmly in Leaf-land. I'm across the river from Detroit in Windsor, and its still about a 50/50 here for Leafs/Wings, thankfully.

If HFboards was smart, they'd add subforums like OffTopic to the Leafs subforum.
The content would not show up in "What's new" so the main boards wouldn't be pissed off with trivial content. (This is a setting in Xenforo).

Yet, Pageviews would go through the roof. Google Ad money

The content could also be blocked from Google so google doesnt see non-hockey info.

For revenue increase, you could charge to be in the offtopic subforum. It could be like Rennlist ... where all the action happens in offtopic and that's why so many people pay the yearly dues. On Rennlist, the offtopic forums are not indexed by Google as the content is hidden.

It also develops a sense of community of paying members over time. People also ask more personal questions in /offtopic and the help they get is surprisingly helpful. Mind you, the Rennlist community is a little more homogenous than hfboards.

Over time a Blue Jays subforum might actually take off and bring new members. Raptors as well.

Actually a subforum called: Toronto Sports with lots of Raptors, Jays, TFC, etc content with content prefixes would work great.

Remember, the content wouldn't flood the mainboard's what's new or searches as the content would just reside in the subforum.

And then I could actually see hockey content when I come.

Thanks! And yeah, one of the reasons I have a 2017 join date is after 20 years of avoiding forums like this entirely because I want nothing to do with power-tripping moderators and snowflake posters, I finally gave in (soaked every last bit I could out of Usenet first). Let's just say, the mods here have lived up to all of my expectations. Sometimes I wonder if a discussion forum is interested in discussion. Meh, nothing to get worked up over though.

 

[Man Bear Pig]

Curious as to whether anyone has come across any deals too good to pass up?

 

[Paradoc]

There a PS4/Xbox bundle for $199, I heard its a really good value, of course, if you're into video games.

 

[Zybalto]

I think the athletic has their subs 50% off today.

That's really, really cheap. I dont think you can get a used xbox one console alone for that price.

Are you taking about that PS4 Spiderman bundle? Between that and the low Black Friday prices on certain games, I had myself a haul.

 

[CanadasTeam]

Amazon deals:
$24.99 Alexa Echo dot
$39.99 Fire 7 tablet

That's the one. The Xbox One bundle had the minecraft game I think, so PS4 was good deal for me.

Yup, which is why I think it's sold out in most Best Buy, Eb Games, Walmart stores, etc.
