I'd like to commend everyone who was here for the GDT last night. It was a pretty hard game to watch but you all managed to keep the criticisms pretty fair for the most part, which made it enjoyable. But today we're now looking at a team with 7 losses in a row, a pitiful number of goals for, and some major issues that look unlikely to be resolved anytime soon. So I know you've gotta do what you've gotta do. If you can't keep your frustration and anger in, don't. If it feels like it's too much, maybe take a time out. I'm not sure what I'll do come Saturday, but if I am not commenting on here and being annoyed on twitter, it's because my own coping mechanism is to get away from the complaining. I can't take negativity from fellow fans when the Leafs give me nothing but negativity. But don't mind me, OK? Everyone's gotta cope and when we get a win or two we'll get back to having fun together.
