Unless you're being sarcastic, you clearly haven't been keeping up with the Leafs the past, oh, DECADE or so

Last time they won the Stanley Cup was in black & white. (Used to be a Blackhawks joke)

Maybe we need an annual hockey thread. Then I could tell you about the time I got to shake hands with Bobby Hull.

Time For Mariano Rivera To Join A Slow Pitch Softball Team ???

If the Yankees can lose another 161 games, then my Red Sox will have a chance to make the playoffs. Of course, with the added wild cards, everyone will have a chance to make the playoffs. Well, almost everybody. Maybe not the Royals, or the Mets.

One night last week, David Letterman's Top 10 was the "Top 10 Charities Under Investigation". One of them was the Mets.

Rays are 1-0 after Rivera blew a save opportunity. Carlos Pena hit a grand slam and got the GW hit in the ninth in his return to the Rays.

The Nats win another one-run game and have won all four of their series so far this season. An unthinkable 10-3.

Can we end the season now? Please?

Actually, he was wearing a suit and tie, so it pretty much was in black & white.

And, since this is really a baseball thread, I could also tell about how I "worked" with Billy Williams of the Cubs way back then, too.

Ah. The Cubs. Not only was their last win in black & white, but it was not even a talkie.
