Hope she gets better. Hospitals suck to be in, even the Canadian ones I assume.

Hey Gals,

Hopefully Marner doesn't read Ek's latest blog and finds out that the Leafs think he's a real Don Juan and they Don Juan nothing to do with him.

OUCH

New blog by the way

Hope she gets better. Hospitals suck to be in, even the Canadian ones I assume.

On a completely unrelated and non-political note :

Fossil hunting season is officially underway in south Florida.

I have two single kayaks and two tandem kayaks and enough gear to outfit at least 3-4 people to hunt. If any of you are down here over the next 2-3 months, shoot me a DM for an authentic Florida Man excursion into the swamps to find million year old bones.

That sounds f@cking incredible!

Seen on Xitter: "Papi playing the worst hockey of his career while also leading the NHL in assists over the past month."

Edit: I don't think this is accurate, but still funny AF. They had a pic of him playing with the goalie stick he picked up too.

That sounds f@cking incredible!

Must be willing to wrestle a gator for a megalodon tooth and follow a stoned Florida Man into a sketchy wilderness with spotty cell service. Inquire within.

Being murdered/drowned, potentially r@ped, (before or after death), and having my face removed so Stonie has a cool mask still sounds better than enduring a Leaf playoff run

Pay a living wage with decent benefits and the apparent shortage of good workers will vanish. Pushing austerity and grind culture isn't going to help. American corporations killed the US manufacturing base out of short term greed and wanting to slash payroll. The US is reaping what it sowed in the 80s and 90s.

Wake me up when Reagan's trickle down finally arrives with Trump's cheap eggs.

American workers all expect to be unionized and make big bucks and get full benefits all for being high school dropouts. Unions drove prices up. And that is why jobs left.

It’s never going back no matter how much Trump huffs and puffs.

In today's news, a group of Toronto Maple Leafs fans from an online forum have formed a Libertarian enclave deep in the Florida swamps. Their spokesperson, a one "Mr. Zezel" claims they are united in an effort to live off the land until the Leafs win another cup, which in his words , "...is happening this season."

Florida authorities are baffled at how to handle the group who apparently have a Florida Man guide helping them evade the police and military.

Now, for an opposing view, we have "Mr. Rare Jewel" to tell us how the whole thing is doomed to fail.

US car companies don't make cars suited for the vast majority of Europe.

Why would anyone living in Europe buy a giant pickup?
- Atomic Wedgie

People won’t drive smaller cheaper cars. No status. Everyone is so entitled these days and needs the bling. It’s American (and Canadian) pop culture. Style over substance. Drive a Beamer while having no savings, no budget, rack up the credit cards and ask to be bailed out because it’s not fair that you can’t afford these things!!!

Why does it feel like hockey posts in here are suddenly the odd exception?

Ode to Mitch Marner

Ode to thee, young Marner, swift and bright,
Upon the ice, a dazzling sight,
With every stride, you weave and glide,
The heart of Toronto, our spirits you guide.

With sticks in hand, you dance and play,
A symphony of skill in swift ballet,
The puck obeys your gentle call,
In the rink, you summon magic for all.

Oh, how you dart, like shadows in flight,
A flash of brilliance, a spark of light,
Your eyes behold the distant goal,
A hunger ignited, a burning soul.

Through crisp November and frosty nights,
You blaze through defenders, igniting delights,
With every pass, your vision unfolds,
A tapestry woven with threads of gold.

In Maple Leaf blue, you stand so tall,
In the hearts of fans, you've captured all,
You chase the dreams of glory and fame,
With courage and heart, you’re building your name.

In winter's chill, when the crowds roar loud,
You carry the hope of a faithful crowd,
With every shot that sails through the air,
A testament to the passion we share.

O Marner, our hero, our beacon of grace,
In the dance of the game, you’ve found your place,
From the dawn of your youth to the heights you ascend,
You inspire the future, you play till the end.

So raise up your stick, let the anthem ring,
For every defeat, you make us believe,
In moments of triumph, we've shared the joy,
Ode to Mitch Marner, our pride, our boy.

In every arena, your name we will cheer,
With dreams in our hearts, you banish the fear,
For in you we find the spirit of play,
In the game that we love, forever you'll stay.

Continue your journey, swift player, so bold,
In the echoes of glory, your story unfolds,
For in every heartbeat, in every long year,
Mitch Marner, our champion, forever held dear.

Especially the Canadian ones.

Thanks to con provincial governments

And what was the price of eggs from the 1st Trump Presidency vs. what it shot up to under Biden? Such a tired argument.

Bird flu, probably designed in a lab funded by Fauci that he was pre-pardoned for, is why your eggs are expensive.

My boss is pretty cool about me using HB during work hours. Of course, my boss is me, so that helps.

The pay and other benefits suck though.

Being self employed is cool. Not for me though because I’m way too lazy.

Guys, the AI is on the side of the Leafs. Look at this masterpiece it made.

Sing, Muse, of the Leafs, a team long forlorn,
Whose hopes like frail ice, had often been torn.
A hundred years passed, a century's wait,
For glory's sweet touch, to seal their fate.
Through seasons of sorrow, defeats bitter and deep,
The faithful fans clung, their vigil to keep.

From the shores of Lake Ontario, their voices arose,
A chorus of longing, a yearning that shows,
In blue and in white, their colours so bright,
A beacon of hope, in the darkest of night.

The players assembled, a brotherhood strong,
With Matthews, their leader, where he belonged.
Marner's quick passes, a wizardly grace,
Tavares's strong presence, a leader's embrace.
Rielly, the stalwart, a pillar of might,
And Stolarz in net, a guardian of light.

Through battles they fought, on the ice hard and cold,
Their rivals defeated, stories untold.
The Bruins were vanquished, their power subdued,
The Habs met their downfall, their pride intruded,
The Lightning were stunned, their reign overthrown,
The Leafs, they were rising, their strength widely known.

The playoffs commenced, a tempestuous fray,
Each game a hard battle, fought day after day.
Overtime tension, hearts pounding with fear,
The roar of the crowd, a sound crystal clear.
Through series they triumphed, their spirits ablaze,
Their destiny beckoned, through victory's maze.

The final round came, a clash of the titans,
Against a fierce foe, whose spirit still brightens.
A battle of wills, a test of their mettle,
Each shift a hard struggle, each moment a kettle,
Of hopes and of dreams, a cauldron of fire,
Fueling the Leafs, raising them higher.

Game seven arrived, the tension was high,
The weight of a city, reflected in eye.
The puck dropped at last, the battle begun,
A clash of the sticks, beneath the bright sun.
A flurry of action, a whirlwind of play,
The Leafs fought with passion, come what may.

Then Matthews, the captain, with skill and with grace,
Sent the puck soaring, finding its place.
Into the back of the net, a goal so sublime,
A moment of glory, conquering time.
The crowd erupted, a sea of pure joy,
Their decades-long waiting, finding employ.

The final buzzer sounded, the victory won,
The Leafs raised the Stanley Cup, the battle was done.
A city rejoiced, in a jubilant spree,
A dream realized, for all eyes to see.
From the streets to the rooftops, the cheers filled the air,
The Leafs, they were champions, beyond all compare.

The legend was forged, in ice and in fire,
The Leafs' epic triumph, rising higher and higher.
Their story is told, a tale to inspire,
The Toronto Maple Leafs, forever acquire,
Their place in the annals, of hockey's great lore,
Their century's wait finished, forevermore.
