Sabres Fan in NS

Windows XP screenshot sighting.

It seems that there actually is a Canadian on the active Raptor roster, but I get what you mean. I don't think anyone is thinking about it atol.

There are approximately 37 million Raptor fans in Canada right now.

Several hundred thousand, some say a million, people gathered for the Raptors parade and rally. And 4 people shot, what a crazy place. The Warriors showed great class by taking out a full page ad in the Toronto Star. The photo was from the aftermath of game 6 when Curry hugged Lowry. Some very nice words too. Sorry, no link, but it is out there in the twittersphere. It would be a mistake on his part if Kahwi does not sign in Toronto.

I think @darksabre started a car thread way back when. If someone has time to ferret about in the cobwebs of the SabreSpace dungeon they may just find it. May the force be with you.

The powers that be probably told them not to be dinkish again and to not run it up.

Paging @TrueBlueGED, you better get my reference.

Be still, my heart ...

That's tempting, but I think you are right about Bowman.

Sorry for my part in that derailment. +++++ I asked way back on page 1, first response after the op, who is this guy. Pi thought I was joking around, but I wasn't ... I really know nothing about this guy. Coles Notes version please, thanks.

Jimmy has some moves.

Anybody watching the Raptors parade? I think today was declared a National Holiday by the leader of The Great Satan.

Fantastic!! Good thing you have 1 regular car and on Dinkie Toy car ... (insert winkie-winkie thingie here ...)

This discussion is pointless. I hate wars. @PASabreFan, maybe I'm wrong, but the last time that I recall that the vast majority of 18 and 19 year old kids were fighting a war was Vietnam. And the vast majority of them were drafted. I think it is criminal for a society to send kids, including those that are 18, or 19, to fight a war. People think of child soldiers as under 10, or something. I don't think that way.

Since this thing is still open ... Moved a bunch of stuff with a friend and a Uhaul on Tuesday. Pros moved more heavy stuff yesterday. This weekend will be crazy with finalizing a set up at the new house, so my wife can fine tune things there with organization ... we both hate moving and the worst part is when you get your stuff to the new place. but its just piled everywhere. Monday the fix up the old house projects start. We both have very mixed feelings about this whole thing, especially my wife who is really struggling with it. In the end we shall see what happens. We may end up deciding to stay in the old house once it is fine tuned. We really do like the location and neighbourhood. The new location is spectacular and has a number of advantages that we have been looking for a long time. Wish us luck.

Hospital? What have I missed? I hope that all is well.

Toronto is a small market team mostly because the NBA does not really care about them (until now), but mostly the players don't care about it. Do you think LeBron ever would have chosen to go to Toronto? Do you think that Kahwi would have signed in Toronto (I think he does sign there now ... max / max)? Do you think he would have demanded a trade to Toronto.

Correct. But, as someone pointed out up thread ... if he was not there in the regular season the Blues would not have made the playoff.

I think that he will play most, if not all, of the season in Buffalo. Unless, of course, something really changes with the roster in the mean time.

Overall the Raptors were the better team. And not only in this series. The only scary point was in round two when the stubborn 76'ers refused to go away. That Kawhi buzzer beater in game 7 was magic. The Raptors were excellent in every aspect of the game, especially in the conference final and then the final final.

Gave you a thumbs up thingie for the not trading Risto part. I tend to think we should keep #7 in a pretty deep draft. The chances are pretty good that we will get a good NHL player at #7.

Side note ... I wonder if the Raptors will be invited to the White House? If so, will they accept? Will they be invited to Parliament? I say yes and they will go. The whole country really put aside whatever differences the different areas of the country may have and adopted the Raptors. It really wasn't a Toronto only thing with 'Jurassic Park(s)' springing up everywhere. MLSE officially sponsored one here in downtown Halifax, which was jammed for every game. Thousands attended. I'm way too old for that kind of stuff.

This is the season that he will get a real chance to show his stuff in Buffalo. I say that he is on the opening night roster and playing, not scratched.

Me too.

From what I have seen of him ... highlights and talking heads talking ... I think Lowry is right on when he said that he feels Kawhi is the best 2 way player in the NBA. I wonder if he will stay in Toronto? He will be offered max contracts by many teams, including Toronto, but my understanding is that Toronto is the only team that can offer the extra (4th, I think) year, which means countless more millions. I think he will sign in Toronto and try to go back-to-back. I wonder were KD will be playing next season. He should be back in game shape for the playoffs. In his limited time in game 5 I think he set the tone for the GS win.
