FTB - Who Else Has Sore Thumbs From NHL 09?
My thumbs are dying, but Be A Pro mode is actually pretty awesome. I've got 3G 1A in 3GP with the Marlies, playing alongside Mitchell and Earl. The game is surprisingly realistic, for example two weeks into the season the Leafs signed Dan Cloutier to a four year
FTB - I Stole This Post From Eklund And All I Got Was This Lousy T-Shirt
* Steve thinks that the Leafs front office moves should improve the franchise long term.
* Stolen from Puck Daddy (Wyshynski you stink!), here's another KHL brawl to get you through Wednesday morning.
* Tampa Bay? Seriously?
* Van Ryn is ready to go. More local players is definitely a good thing.

FTB - A Flip Flop Flip Flop Flip
Dearest readers,
You may have noticed that a caption contest began last night. You have all week to submit as many funny captions as you would like, and on Sunday I'll pick my favorite without PPP's help because I'm a big boy and wear
FTB - We Have Always Been At War With Bryan McCabe
Joking aside I wish McCabe the best in Florida. He's been recently demonized by a lot of fans and the media in Toronto, and been used as a scapegoat for the Leafs problems that have been a long time coming.
The good news is, it looks like Fletcher

FTB - It's Friday!
I had a dream last night that Vesku, Cujo, Pogge and I (all of us wearing goalie gear) were driving around Toronto just chilling out. We got milkshakes and were involved in some sort of high speed chase.

FTB - The Yankees Suck
Excuse your newest writer for being tired, but it's impossible to settle down and go to sleep after watching Dustin Pedroia hit a grand slam to stab the Yankees' playoff chances in the heart.

A Cautionary Tale!
Ladies and Gentlemen,
I'm here to warn you all about the dangers of your children becoming fans of the Ottawa Senators. It may seem harmless enough, it starts with your son or daughter watching Ottawa play on HNIC, but as you'll see following the jump, it

I'm interested in economics. The old adage "everybody has a price" in my mind is really more of a fundamental law of the universe. This is the first post in a series about ticket prices, tickets in general, and the economics of the Maple Leafs having

To Those That Don't Know Me
This post feels like a formality since I think all of you know who I am from my relentless commenting here as well as the three weeks Greener, MF37 and I inflated PPP's traffic numbers and publicly slandered Moose.

Another Sunday Post
This is probably the last time I'll ever update a blog with any readers, so I'd like to make it something special. Over the past few weeks Greener, Moose, mf37 and I went through the ups, and the downs. We had days with too much news
