    “Hey, Leaf fans: Boo these guys, not Leafs”

    Hey, Leaf fans: Boo these guys, not Leafs Oct 23, 2007 04:30 AM Written by: Damien Cox Years ago, fans knew who to blame when the Leafs fell on hard times – crusty ol’ Harold Ballard. Today, club ownership is a rarely seen, seldom-quoted collection of suits. Clockwise from top left, Jim Leech of Ontario Teachers’ Pension Plan; MLSE chairman Larry Tanenbaum; MLSE director Dale Lastman; Robert MacLellan of TD Bank; Robert Bertram of the Ontario Teachers’ Pension Plan; CTVglobemedia CEO Ivan Fecan.

    In a slump ?????

    Why? Not sure. Just am. Or am I? You can’t tell on the outside, but I feel it. I think. I’m loving work. I’m loving the kids. I’m liking where we are right now. But something is lacking.

But it does deserve to be on my list. It’s something I want to see…so laugh all you want. Whatever. You can’t say anything I haven’t heard 1,000,000+ times before.
