17 h. ago Toronto Blue Jays got totally disrespected by American media in Yankees series predictions

The Toronto Blue Jays have home-field advantage. They also beat the New York Yankees in eight of 13 games this season, including victories in six of seven games against the Yanks at Rogers Centre.Don't tell that to American media members, who don't seem to be taking the Blue Jays seriously.Most U.S. media outlets believe the Yankees will emerge victorious over Toronto during the first-ever meeting between these two teams in the postseason.On MLB.com, about two-thirds of their writers said that the Yankees will prevail against the Blue Jays, despite being the lower seed. They highlighted Bo Bichette's absence and the emergence of New York pitcher Camerom Schlittler as factors that could be the difference in the series.That slant towards the Yankees comes off as tame compared to other outlets.A panel of five CBS Sports writers all unanimously picked the Yankees to beat the Jays, although all of their writers said the series would go to a decisive Game 5."I question th...

17 h. ago New York Yankees manager claps back at Toronto Blue Jays broadcaster Buck Martinez

It's been nearly a month since Buck Martinez criticized the New York Yankees.However, his comments haven't been forgotten.When the Blue Jays beat the Houston Astros on Sept. 9, the story wasn't about the final result (a 4-3 Toronto win). What most remember from that game were Martinez's comments in the seventh inning when he found out that the Detroit Tigers were pounding the Yankees."You know, the Yankees, they're not a good team. I don't care what their record is. They have a lot of wild pitches, they make a lot of mistakes in the field, they don't run the bases very well. If they don't hit home runs, they don't have a chance to win."Well, turns out that neither the fans nor Yankees manager Aaron Boone have forgotten his comments.“Contrary to some thoughts up here, we’re a really good team," Boone told reporters on Friday.Just in case it wasn't clear who Boone was talking about, he later clarified."I know...

29 h. ago This $3 million Toronto home from the 1960s is delightfully weird

Toronto real estate has no shortage of glassy new builds and cookie-cutter flips, but every so often, a house comes along that feels like it belongs in both an architectural magazine and a fever dream.Enter 38 Purdon Dr., a ravine-side 1960s modernist with cathedral ceilings, a sunroom bar that literally glows, and a backyard waterfall fed by rainwater.From the street, you know you're not in typical North York territory.The front entrance. The façade glows pink at night, with what can only be described as dinosaur-egg decals on its exterior. And the deeper you go, the stranger it gets.The living room. Originally designed by a local architect in the mid-'60s, the home was completely reimagined in 2002 and again in 2024, fusing mid-century bones with eclectic modern finishes.The dining room. The result? About 5,000 square feet spread across three and a half levels, with five bedrooms, five bathrooms, two kitchens, and four separate entrances.The foyer.&nb...
