Don't blame me, blame the MLSE board


Hey, last night was not my fault. I said I was reluctantly jumping on the Leaf bandwagon. Afterall, they hadn't won more than 3 games in a row all season and after last night they still haven't.

Only Hollywood has Cinderella teams win 9 games in a row to clinch a playoff spot on the last day of the regular season. The script usually has the team go on to win the Championship. But in the movies the team is never controlled by a pension plan, run by an interim manager and stocked with complacent players with no trade contracts.
