Yes… Let’s Go Blue Jays… Is it at all possible that Leaf fans are finally fed up?
Keep dreaming. We all know the chant was merely done to express our disdain at the state of the team.
And, yes… I admit it… I am a Leafs fan. Only the San Jose Sharks comes second and I have been a fan of them since their inception (yes.. Pat Falloon!!!).
Back to the dreary Leafs. Another year and here are again. No Playoffs since the lock-out. Another spring where all the fans can go wonder what next season will bring.
Unfortunately, as attendance records show, that while we still “somewhat” support our Jays we are absolutely a hockey town first. If we truly were a baseball town we’d be there through thick and thin… since the back-to-back world series and then Lock-Out… well… that pretty much killed baseball in the hearts of a lot of fans. There are die-hards… yes I like to watch them once in a while, but overall… we are a hockey town.
No matter how much the Leafs stink, we’ll be there to sell out the arena.
In any case, check out this clip from SportsNet… I love the jersey on the old guy at the end. I have a feeling he’ll have long since passed before he can take that shirt off. http://www.sportsnet.ca/hockey/2012/03/30/toronto_maple_leafs_blue_jays_lets_go/
