Are We under some kind of curse?

[Platts]

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.

[Parkdale]

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.

[Pachuco]

I blame it on Dero

[Carts]

I blame it on Dero

I had my money on Mojo or MLSE being blamed first...

[phonzo]

i blame the lake...seriously need more lake blame

[Carts]

i blame the lake...seriously need more lake blame

Or Mark Zuckerberg...?

[Parkdale]

i blame the lake...seriously need more lake blame

the lake? You know what we'd be without the lake? Kitchener. Think about it.

[Brooker]

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

[BFin]

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.

(Sarcasm)

[rocker]

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.

[BFin]

Jesse Ventura is on the case

[reggie]

nope its not a curse...we have just been punked for the last V years

[Mark TFC]

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.

[BFin]

Anddddd here we go...

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.

[ManUtd4ever]

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.

I need an explanation. ..

[__wowza]

MY MIND IS FULL OF FUCK.
based off of the title, for a second i thought this thread was going to be about another injured defender.

[P-NUTZ]

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?

Fixed for acccuracy.

We all know you're the Ballet King.

[Parkdale]

okay, okay..... it would be pretty awesome

You said boob.

[SmokedPanda]

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.

[BFin]

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.

we're never taking the superstition out of sports - they're two peas in the same pod.
