All Things John!

image via hoops habit This season so far for the Raptors has been a roller coaster of cold and hot play. The season started terribly, then the entire team went on a major hot streak and now the team is back in the crapper. I was at the game last Friday against the Hornets and it was embarrassing to stay for the entire game. For the first time that I have been present at a game, fans were leaving the premises. Raptors fans are always passionate, but that is how bad the team wa

image via Toronto Sun The Toronto Raptors started the season 1-4 and all signs leaned toward another long season and missing the playoffs once again. Since then the team has gone 11-1, playing a very inspired brand of basketball led by their stars and their bench. The Core Four on the Maple Leafs may have been disbanded, but the Raptors top four guys have been leading this team in every area. Ingram has been the shot maker the team has been missing. Scottie has been amazing i

image via the leafsnation dot com I will make this short and sweet. The Toronto Maple Leafs have been a major disappointment almost one quarter into the current season. Their skilled players are performing at a decent level and putting up points, but defensively they have been atrocious and it shows up on a game per game basis. Not having Tanev for much of the season hurts, but the entire team needs to be better and better soon or the playoffs will be a pipe dream. The only s

image via yahoo dot com It has been a couple of weeks since the Toronto Blue Jays lost a crushing Game 7 to the Los Angeles Dodgers and I am still in disbelief. I was lucky enough to be at Game 6 and everything that happened in the bottom of the 9th is still fresh in my head. Myles Straw was on first and Barger hit what I thought was an inside the park home run and then everything after that was a blur. Barger's hit wound up being an ground rule double and there were runners

image via mlb dot com The World Series started off with a BANG last Friday and I was lucky enough to be there and witness it all. The game was close until the 6th inning when the Jays scored eight runs high lighted by Barger's grand slam which was the first pinch hit grand slam in World Series history. Wow just wow! The atmosphere around the park and during the game was absolutely electric and I have never high fived so many people in my life! I knew the Jays had a chance whe

image via latimes WE'RE GOING TO THE SHOW!!!! There is something different about this team. The back to back World Series teams of '92 and '93 were special and had a dominant line up and pitching staff, but this group of men is special. Every player, every post game interview mentions how much each member of this franchise cares about each other and has a next man up mentality and that makes the success that it is having all that more meaningful. When Vladdy almost teared up

image via mlb dot com Game one of the A.L.C.S should have been a lot better. The Mariners were coming off a 15 inning win a couple of days later in which they used their #1 and #2 starters and were forced to use their #5 starter Bryce Miller who was terrible during the regular season with a 4-6 record and a near six E.R.A. What happened? The Jays were nearly no hit and other than the first inning did absolutely nothing offensively and now all the pressure is on a rookie pitch
