I'd like to see them sue an individual for a single tweet. Tweeting is like shouting into a crowd. If it was continued harassment that is different but a single mean tweet. Give me a break. Rich people with too much money to pay lawyers. TSN being a broadcaster falls under different rules than an individual and will learn to not let the 20yr old intern vet the tweets for air.

So what exactly are the damages here? Most people in Toronto think Phaneuf is an overpaid 2-3 paired D man anyway so I really don't see the damage to reputation here. Has anyone seen an official denial? hmm Lupul has been off the ice a lot this season while Phaneuf is playing. hmmm (waiting for my letter for a mean post on a forum)

Even more ridiculous is Lupul challenging random dudes to fight on social media. What a moron.

I don't give rat's *** about any tweets, I always laugh watching a program in TV and somehow the TV station thinks that I care what some faceless tweeter is blabbing on-line about the show I am watching .... Same as newspaper who need to re-print regularly tweets. I literally hope one day waking up and twitter and tweets be gone .... Just evaporating ... LOL

Now, as far as our lovely Leafs? ..... What can one say? Is this the rock bottom? Somehow I don't think so ... Still can get better that this.

I just wish they increased ticket prices .... That would be lovely to watch .... Seems like they don't have the balls they used to .... LOL

Get off my dang lawn ya wipper snappers. lol

They are trying desperately to attract the next generation where social viewing is important to the viewing experience. Its all about a group conversation. Not unlike a motorcycle forum where the majority of conversation has nothing to do with motorcycles. :)
 
TSN no longer to broadcast live tweets.

safer in the long run especially as broadcasters either devoted simple software filters or interns to monitor them not realizing how they could be bitten if the wrong stuff went to air. Hey CTV atlantic ran 45 sec of porn before the news the other day. Accidents do happen especially with digital stuff.

Gay porn, to boot.
I still have problems sleeping.
I should sue?

Ah, Gary...I was setting you up there! Lol.

Only paid for 1 Leaf game in my life. Not a sports fan really..took my son last year when I won some tix to say we went. Meh. Like already stated, this is the same lunchroom /locker room/ bar/ etc. conversation that Torontonians have been having for years. We're not a hockey town, we're a Leafs town. People will pay them to lose forever. They have no reason to attempt a winning team bc if they did get one, and then they started losing, people may then stop buying tickets. IMHO

I know. That's why I put the link up. ;-)
I'd been to a few games at MLG. Tickets were free.
Then we went to a playoff game. (yes - that long ago).
Playoff hockey, even with the leafs involved was great to watch.
I'd never go to a reg season game again.
 
A fanatic Leafs fan was at the end of his life. He made a request to have 6 players act as his pallbearers. Why? He wanted the Leafs to let him down one last time.

we should merge this leafs thread with the joke thread.
 
I'm surprised that so many players would want to play for them.

Is it easier work than for winning teams?

Actually, I just saw the other day that the Leafs are ranked in the bottom 5 of teams players most want to play for. I think the days of dreaming of growing up and playing for the Leafs are few and far between now.
