percy

I'm reading this welll after Ottawa lost the finals and I must admit, I got a chuckle out of it.

My attitude exactly mirrors that of every Leaf fan. If any Canadian team were in the finals except for TO, I would cheer for them.

If the Leafs ever made it to the finals which is a good many decades off as it is, ya know what, I wouldn't waste my time watching them either.

Leaf fans are a bunch of their own, a special breed. It takes alot of balls to support a perrenial bunch of losers year in and out.

Me, I like winners not losers. I also like the new style of the game. Skill, speed, style and a bucket full of creativity and talent. Something the LEAFS will never have as long as they think the perfect model of hockey foresight is modelling themselves after the Broad Street Bullies of the 70's

They will never get it, especially when they are losing by 2 or more goals with a period and a half to play.You don't go goony gaggah and take more penalties. You play hard to try and get back in the game.

But for that you need a qualified GM, a coach that can control his players temperament, scouts that are not looking for the next Ken Linesman (aka Darcy Tucker) gosh,,..so old and 1970ish thinking and players that have a clue what a gameplan is.

But when you add it all up, the Leafs will never change,..and for non-Leaf fans that is excellent.

And for those who dabble in the odd bet,..here's a sure thing every time. When the Leafs play their second or third game on a road trip, pretty much anywhere, bet the over. You'll win everytime.

And before I forget. Leafs suck big time.
