Pessimistic/realistic Leafs fan. Je parle français y un poquito de español. He/him.

One week ago tonight.... The Leafs haven't lost since and the Jays did not win again.

As much as I love the Leafs, would give anything to flip their fates

The Leafs have played 8 games in these playoffs. They've won 6 and lost 2.

I watched 6 at home and 2 in other places. Guess which games were which 😂

So now the question is: does my cottage count as home? Guess we'll find out on Friday 😝

Did Berube tell them to play like it's Game 7? Because that looked like the Leafs were playing like it's Game 7

At least when the Leafs lose their series to the Sens, it won't even be the biggest choke job but the blue side in Canada this week

I wish to apologize to Max Domi for all the things I shouted about him at my TV through regulation tonight

My hopes for this Blue Jays season

Canada beats USA at the 4 Nations. Panama and Canada beat USA at the Nation's League.

Karma's a b**** 😜

We spent a decade wondering what it would be like if Crosby and McDavid played together...... Boy did they answer that quickly. And it was everything we hoped for 😂

I turned on the Swiatek-Raducanu match at the #AusOpen at 1-1 in the first set. I watched the entire remainder of the match...

Only Iga won games after I turned it on. She won all 11 games ,😂

Félix Auger-Aliassime beat 3 Americans in Adelaide, 4 of his 5 wins in 2025 are over Americans, and he has won 8 straight matches against Americans...

Maybe Trump just wants to conquer Canada so that Félix plays for the US 🤪

Obvi a joke, but also seems like something petty Donald would do 🤨

Rewatched the first "Kingsman" from 2014 and it feels weirdly prescient. If it were made today, we'd all be talking about how Valentine is based on Elon Musk

Rich egomaniac working in tech using his power to influence politics

Except, ya know, Valentine at least claims to care about the planet 🤪

Incredible start to the season for Felix Auger-Aliassime!

Served well all week but saved his best for the final in Adelaide. Great to see him able to clamp down and go full Terminator with the title on the line. Felix is back? Felt like it watching this one

Ok, we all know Jannik Sinner dominated the hard courts in 2025.... but is that dominance tenable?

Don't forget, he was 0-2 against Carlos Alcaraz on hard courts last year. Today our NBO power rankings panel has a look at the men's field at the Australian Open

In April, 🇨🇦 Gabriela Dabrowski was diagnosed with breast cancer. She took less than two months away from the tour and then:

- Won a title
- Reached the Wimbledon final
- Won an Olympic medal
- Reached a 1000 final
- Won the WTA Finals
- Reached a career-high ranking of No. 3

Wow. Just wow.

With Taylor Fritz's straight-set win over Borna Coric, Canada has officially been eliminated from the United Cup 😔

Still plenty of positives for Félix Auger-Aliassime and Leylah Annie Fernandez this week. Their respective singles wins were a great start to "2025" 🇨🇦
December 31, 2024 at 4:41 AM
Germany beats China 2-1 which means both teams advance to the United Cup QFs and Canada needs to win Group A to advance.

Only way they do that is if Croatia beats USA 2-1 and wins 5 sets and the Americans 2 and then if Canada some has the best games won %, they can win the group. Tough one 😳

I have a theory that being a good person slows down ageing and Jimmy Carter was a favourite example

His presidency was before my time, but beyond politics he seemed a well-meaning, genuinely kind man. One who was still building houses for others when he was too old to do so 💙 RIP Mr. President 💙 🫡
