Great, gutsy 6-2 #BlueJays win in World Series Game 4 in LA. Toronto has outscored the #Dodgers 23-17. The series is tied 2-2, and the Series winner will be decided in Toronto!!

You know, I was feeling real bummed about the game last night. But the fact is, the Blue Jays played half the game with our second tier roster of guys, without four of their biggest hitters, and got the same number of hits against the Dodgers' best lineup. Our pitchers absolutely shoved. I'm proud.
I don't see the hilarity that the Real Kyper & Bourne do that #Leafs head coach Craig Berube is a low-IQ, monosyllabic cretin. Not funny, boys. And certainly not funny for #LeafsNation.
Pro tip to the Kyper & Bourne gang - the #Leafs WERE embarrassed by the Buffalo #Sabres last week. Handing 3 of 4 points to those guys can't be considered a Leafs win.
Like clockwork, the US is battered every fall by tropical storms. The latest is a bit unusual in that it is heading towards large US cities that the Republican Party does not control. It has been named #TropicalStormTrooper™.
The #POTUS is summarily executing people suspected of being drug dealers, without any proof.

Funny thing, it is illegal, under US and international law, to deliberately target civilians who are not directly participating in hostilities, even if they are suspected criminals.
In the words of The Mandalorian - This is the way.
Carney: "We can't control the trade policy of the US. We recognize it has fundamentally changed from the policy in the 1980s, 1990s, 2000s, & it's a situation where US has tariffs against every trading partner... what we we can control is developing new partnerships, including w/econ giants of Asia"

Pundits and fans are hammering #Leafs forward Auston #Matthews for not being the same player he was even 20 months ago. They are right ! He's looked complacent and indifferent in the first two weeks of this season.
The #Leafs head coach, Craig #Berube, can yell his monosyllabic Luddite phrases to his heart's content, but without a rational system that emphasizes speed, open ice and short, pinpoint passing... it's useless.
The US's self-proclaimed "greatest Democracy the world has ever seen" ain't doing well in its arrogantly noted "checks and balances". Not when a known grifter, felon, and rapist can shake down corporations, institutions and the very government he leads. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
Trump claims he’d give his $230 million Justice Department grift to charity. Yeah, right.
The president, who has a history of reneging on charitable pledges, ran his own family foundation into the ground.

Just pondering - I loathe fascists so I guess I should contact the #Antifa Corporate HQ in… Texas… to sign up? Is that in the same downtown district as #Woke International?

Trump has now murdered 34 people in international waters.

No one has any idea if any were criminals, and of course it doesn't matter, because it was a war crime to kill even a single one of them.

Drug trafficking is a felony, but it's not a violent crime and isn't punishable by summary execution.

Can hardly wait for #Leafs boss Brad #Treliving to land one of Lucas #Raymond or Clayton #Keller to play on the #Matthews line. Hahahahahahha.
9% of the #Leafs NHL season is in the books... and... they really have not shown up to win. 3-3-1 in their first 7. The Buds aren't in the top 15 in the 32-team #NHL:. They just aren't. Slow. Plodding. Can't make or complete a pass. #Berube in charge. Not good, Leafs fans.
Once again, the Toronto Maple #Leafs looked about as disjointed and disconnected as a pro hockey team can be. Thank you, head coach Craig #Berube, for failing to create and instill a system that emphasizes skating and passing. New Jersey #Devils 5, Leafs 2. #NHL
It should be obvious by now that the players brought in this season by GM Brad #Treliving have NOT made the #Leafs any better. In fact, I'd say the team is far worse than last season. (see #Roy, #Joshua, #Primeau)
I'm shocked that a smooth-skating, slick-passing team like the New Jersey #Devils are beating the older, slower, dump-it-out #Leafs. Shocked, I say. Shocked!!
Another example of why discerning news consumers should never tune-in #CNN.
Lankford was in the Senate when the Intelligence Committee wrote its giant report concluding that Russiagate was not a hoax, and it's criminal negligence by CNN to let him say this on air with no pushback.
Lankford: "I think now history has proven that Russiagate was a hoax. It was actually formed by James Coney and Brennan and others that were behind the scenes to push a narrative they knew at the time was false." (This is a lie -- would've been nice for Kasie Hunt to point that out.)
New Jersey #Devils forwards skate forward and slice through the #Leafs like a hot knife through butter. How does an #NHL team allow a four-on-one? It's embarrassing, but I guess it's the #Berube 'system'. 3-2 Devils in the second period... in Toronto. The Leafs are in the midst of a soft 15 games.
The self-annointed 'O dog' who spews mostly nonsense on #TSN is completely wrong on #Leafs goaltender Anthony #Stolarz publicly calling out his soft teammates. He was just vocalizing what all we fans have seen for years.
The #Lincoln Memorial might be next.
He ruins everything he touches.
Don't look now, but former #Leafs star Mitch #Marner is tied for 5th in league scoring, notching 10 points for the Vegas #GoldenKnights. His ex-linemate Auston #Matthews? 6 points in 6 games.
Hey Jeff #Blair of #Sportsnet, when you have a title-winning guest (John Schneider), ask a short, basic question and get out of the way. It. Is. Not. About. You. Geezuz.
