Toronto Media Are Buffoons

Today we will start with Damien Cox...He is a respected journalist but when it comes to the Leafs he is a buffoon..
here is his article today....
http://www.thestar.com/Sports/Columnist/article/269919
He says:
All in all, there remains uncertainty, some problematic injuries and the undeniable scent of imminent disaster in the air. Nine points in 10 games just isn't enough, certainly, to suggest a playoff berth is going to be available in April.
The buffoon makes it seem like the Leafs are out of a playoff spot and a disaster will happen..

This guy actually works for the Tabloid the Toronto sun...I use to buy this paper when I was a kid but now realize its just a more expensive form of toilet paper...I wouldnt even use this rag to pack my boxes when I am moving...or to line the kitty litter with...
here is BUFFOON Number 2s column today
http://slam.canoe.ca/Slam/Hockey/NHL/Toron...601461-sun.html
Here is a perfect example of how the media loves to put the Leafs down...
Maybe the league could start handing out a point for teams who practice well. It might be the only way the Maple Leafs can find a way into the playoffs.
This team has more gaps than a hockey player's smile. And one of the biggest has been the space between some of their ears
This is just irresponsible tabloid bullshit..I would ban this Buffoon from the ACC.

Good luck with your brain tumour. I will no longer respond to anything you post about hockey, because this forum is for people that understand the game. You obviously don't. Nice hand....

if the shoe fits......
I will not accept irresponsible journalism anymore...I am in the process of writing letters to the editor of the major toronto dailys...
Someone has to step up and show people the stupidity that these writers and reporters spew

As a devoted Leafs fan who loves his team blindly regardless of their acheivements what whould like to see happen if by the trade deadline you have no chance of making the playoffs.
A.) to see the same team on the ice next year
or
B.) trade some players to improve the team for future years ( if any Leafs players still have value by then)

If, as you predict, Sudin does have an amazing season, he would be worth ALOT come the trade deadline... he's probably going to have a pull a Ray Bourque if he ever wants to win a cup.

It is important to note that by no means I am implying that gruven is a buffoon...From my dealings with him he has seemed to be very knowledgeable hockey guy that knows his stuff...He has a lot of friends and connections in the hockey community and experience as well...However when he is on television or radio he cant resist the urge to follow in the steps of his buffoon colleagues...Doesnt necessarily mean he is a buffoon, just from time to time has buffoon like qualities in his analysis of the Toronto Maple Leafs franchise.
Once again I am NOT ATTACKING gruven...My comments are against the Buffoons in the thread...so far we have two..we will add more as we go...

season where the Leafs JUST and i mean JUST missed the playoffs, there is a lot to be optimistic for this year. The Leafs led by their young GM John Ferguson JR
made some big off season moves to help this club. Acquring Vesa Toskala not only improved our goaltending situation, it will also give the franchise in a position to
have trading power with 3 solid goalies in the system in Toskala,Raycroft and hot prospect Justin Pogge.
The other major move the Leafs made is adding that elusive big scorer on the top line...It has been said for years Sundin hasnt had a true goal scorer on his wing and Jason Blake might be the guy. I personally believe that Blake is a better fit with the playmaking Kyle Wellwood and it remains to be seen how Coach Paul Maurice will have the lines set up.
The other wildcard is Mark Bel..Bell was a highly touted 1st round pick with Chicago and put up 25 goals a few years ago before the trade to San Jose...After having personal problems off the ice, if Bell gets his act together he will be a major player on this team...
Lets go Leaf Fans..Lets band together and lets do it this year...

what will they write about tomorrow...
Maybe they will jump back on the bandwagon and forget the half truths and misguided opinions that they have been spewing all year...
Is it a coincidence the Leafs play a great game on the road...hmmm..NO

Obviously they'll all be debating the best possible parade route.

I just wanted to point out this post....As I write this there are currently 20 teams in the league with less points than the Leafs...
Apparently the "experts" believe the Leafs are the worst team in the league...HMMM...interesting math..It must be the same math that was used in determining the leafs wouldnt make the playoffs..
Unfortunately the so called expert will not be responding because I am an idiot and he is a genius...Actually when all things are said and done, we will see who is the genious...Obviously we arent naming names here...
At least I back up my statements and dont turtle when things go bad....
