Compete Level

I appreciated the world cup final if only because I couldn't sit down to watch until well into the 2nd half, but I could be confident during that whole time that when I did tune in it would still be 0-0

The other part of my experience at the pub to report is I arrived about 10 mins before kickoff when it was obviously standing room only but many of the seated people were at the perimeter of the room so it was almost impossible to find a place to stand and watch where I wasn't blocking a sitter's vi...

Yeah it's hard to escape agreement with all the cliches about not being brave enough to keep playing. Michael Caley is a yank whose soccer opinions I borrow and he was mystified by England's 2nd half well before they gave up the lead, based on Argentina not having a ball winner anywhere on the pitch...

I found myself surprised at how devastated I was. still not like mood/week ruining like hockey/baseball but it was properly heartbreaking.

if they had any clue the patrons of the neighbourhood coke boozer would have denied me entry when I showed up in a Leafs shirt

Watched it with my bro in law at a proper cokehead boozer in my hood, unforgettable experience

Sounds like the Leafs took some interesting dmen including the then-undrafted / now-overage guy who was on the last Canada WJC team

Lagerberg is a great name

Counterpoint: right handed dmen are the most valuable possible addition to any team

Winnipeg's gotta go for the prairie prince

Dorofeyev for picks, damn

Nobody wants the Carels or Reid

I sorta trust the sabres I guess?

On the hottest night in the history of the Europe I think back to the night the CL Toronto crew watched the oil draft Taylor Hall at my old place on Moutray St having turned down a chance to go to some friend with a cottage's cottage

There's an Instagram account that posts Leafs draft classes over the decades and there are decades where probably, Brad Boyes was their best first round pick.
