    Yea I don’t see the Canadian pride thing....90% of the roster is American or other nations. I’m not sure there’s a single Canadian on there...

    Toronto pride? Sure....fucking bandwagon jumpers. And this whole We the north bullshit? The fuq does that even mean?!

    And I say this as someone who was in grade 7 and met the original team lineup when they came to our school when Raptors were first formed as a team.

    Damon Stoudamire was awesome.


    Toronto Raptors president of basketball operations Masai Ujiri for suspicion of misdemeanor battery on a police officer,

    http://www.espn.com/mlb/game?gameId=401075755

    ""Mr. Ujiri was unknown to the deputy at that time. He [the deputy] asked him for a credential," said Sgt. Ray Kelly, a spokesman for the sheriff's office. "He shoved the deputy out of the way and walked toward the court. The deputy pushed back. The president came forward more with a more significant push and ended up striking the deputy in the face."

    GTFO, his team just won, and he was probably like WTF

    No need to pity them, I have people ask me for wristbands/credentials damn near every weekend. I either show them or I go get mine.

    I have had absolutely zero interest in the NBA since Mr Jordan retired.

    Only game I’ve ever been to was a Wizards game in Dec 2001. Last game he scored 50 in a game. 51 that night. After you’ve seen that. Nothings going to compare.

    Top 10 most popular sports in America
    1. Football
    2. Baseball
    3. Basketball
    4. Hockey
    5. Soccer
    6. Boxing
    7. Auto Racing
    8. Golf
    9. Tennis
    10. Mixed Martial Arts

    (There are a few different lists but basketball is number 3 by far on all of them)

    74th M/C roadracing
    And I'm being sarcastic in case the millennials start cursing

    I don't really think of Cousins as a Warrior. He doesn't even cross my mind when I think of which ones I like or don't like.

    Judging from the amount of air time and news coverage, I'd say golf is above hockey and soccer.

    Agreed
    Event attendance is probably the difference

    I got completely shitfaced drunk during the Portland/Golden State series a few years back sitting courtside. Not really sure how the shit talking with Draymond Green got started, but the ensuing conversation nearly led to me getting an escort out of the arena and resulted in me hating him ever since.

    Jimmy Goldstein happened to be sitting next to me and he was actually a pretty good sport about me insisting that his hat must have been made from Velociraptor repeatedly after about the fifth drink.
