I’m gonna try something different today. I’m pissed off and don’t care to mince words or play with funny stories. Instead I’m gonna just spit a little bit of what I call truth.

“What’s wrong with the Leafs?” I hear people saying, and see on the web-r-net. “What’s wrong with Mitch and Wily and (gasp and whisper) is Auston really hurt? How could that be true?”

FFFFFFFUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!

The Toronto Maple Leafs are a hockey team, right? Is that still the case? Holy shit, just because we all had to watch total garbage for years doesn’t mean our hockey team just gets to be good immediately. Just because our whole team had career years last season doesn’t mean that they get to just skip along to the Cup Final. It takes work, day in and day out, fucking hard as shit, ‘fuck my life’ kind of work. It’s not called the National Hockey Easy is it? Is it? I wouldn’t put it past Bettman to have changed the name of the league one morning just ’cause.

Think about this, there are twenty year-olds who are being told, right now, that if they  can’t score more goals it will cost them millions of dollars. That’s fucked up, like, in terms of society and human evolution and stuff. Twenty year-olds should be thinking about one think… SEX. Seriously, tell me what else you were thinking about at twenty.

Now, think about this, those same twenty year-olds from before can probably bang anyone in the city of Toronto that they want to. Not in a ‘sex-predator’ kind of way, in a ‘Auston can you PLEASE bang my wife and let me watch? PLEASE!?’ kind of way. But with all the vaginas of the city, if not all of Canada (and Sweden), open to them these boys… Let me say that again… BOYS!… need to watch every word and deed and thought because smartphones are watching and listening all the time.

How would you handle that sort of a life? I know I would go full Beiber on the world with bitches and bottle services and SOOOOO many bitches.

Can we maybe give a little bit of consideration to our young stars and allow them to mature at their own pace? Babcock seems to understand this, that’s why he’s not benching guys for mistakes and sitting guys and sending them down.

Last year the Leafs got better as they went along. This year has been different than last year. I’m going to make a bold prediction. Next year will be different than this year. I for one am going to enjoy the ride. I for one am going to appreciate that I can see the difference when my team is playing poorly. Time was when I couldn’t tell.

That’s all. I’m still pissed off, but not at you, and definitely not at the Leafs.
