View Full Version : Are We under some kind of curse?

For just the second time this season TFC get to be on a national TV network and coming off a gutty perhaps "season saving" comeback against the league Aces; and of course we are going up against game 7 of the Stanley Cup finals with a Canadian team involved and a Boston team.
The result will be zero viewers and for those of us who will watch zero atmosphere in the stands.

WHEN WILL WE CATCH A Friggin BREAK?


Maybe it is a silver lining:

Despite everything right now i say results are more important than anything so maybe the dead interest in Boston combined with a couple of gold Cup players out for NE maybe we can steal some points.

yep, we are cursed to be a sub-par team in a sub-par league, playing a sport that isn't exactly 'prime time' in this country.

It will change down the road, but there's no point in beating our heads against the wall over it.

less fans in their stands = bad for us? no!

Yes. I can safely say that based on my months of watching Ghost Hunters, we are most definitely under some kind of curse.

There is nothing else that can possibly explain it. Nothing. End of discussion.

i blame it on Parkdale. Didn't he visit BMO Field before construction was finished? That's a no-no.. He cursed it. He should have waited til opening day.

Seems the biggest "curse" is negativity. This is a supporters group but unfortunately a lot of people use it to shit talk the very team they're supporting.

yeah..... I don't buy that.

We shit talk the owners (totally acceptable supporter's tactics) and we get upset about bad results based on uninspired and lazy play.


we didn't start out negative, but 5 years of sub-par play (and a bumbling FO) has kinda put us in a sour mood.

As mentioned, if anything, the lack of arses in the stands tonight should work in our favour. As for the lack of television viewers because of the Stanley Cup final, thems the breaks.

true... people shouldn't forget what happened at the end of the last game of season 1, when we finished with only 25 points. a spontaneous positive celebration on the field.

not being a leafs fan, i have noticed that everything mlse has done consistently yields poor results for decades.

i therefore conclude there IS in fact a curse, and that is mlse ownership.

The fans/supporters/players/whatever are some of many victims.

but is that really a 'curse'?

If I somehow found myself as the creative director of the National Ballet of Canada, would it really be a 'curse'? Or just the bad direction of an incompetent boob?

RPB should seriously consider getting a feng shui master to come sit down with us and have him look at the geography of BMO Field and look into the ownership groups of MLSE. This will help us determine if we are doomed forever or just have to suffer a bit longer.

I tried calling Mrs. Cleo last night to ask her how we could break the curse, she suggested a seance at mid-field before each game.

oh - so a REAL curse is still a possibility?

hmmm...if certain NFL teams for example can be considered "cursed" (bills, vikings, cincinati etc) its often a combination of poor management, bad luck and failure no matter what they try.

But if you mean a REAL curse...i suppose it depends on whether one believes in that sort of thing.

Cheer for who you want. TFC is garbage and it hurts.

But if you are from Toronto and cheer for another team other than the Leafs then follow the same line of thinking you used for the NHL and change MLS sides and go follow Salt Lake. (I doubt that happens)

Um I'll cheer for Toronto. They're playing tonight and I couldn't care less about those other cities playing tonight.

Hey hey hey now...let's get serious and focus on the real issue at hand folks.

The curse that has been placed upon TFC by that voodoo doctor that had a score to settle with MLSE.

I demand a sacrifice be made to rid ourselves of this curse.
