4 d. ago Buffalo Bills supporters want to break up with cursed Toronto sports fans

Some Buffalo Bills fans located south of the border are pleading with those in Toronto to stop rooting on their team.It's no secret that Toronto seems to be cursed when it comes to their pro sports teams. The Maple Leafs haven't won a Stanley Cup since 1967 and find new ways to disappoint their fan base every year.And we're still not over the Blue Jays' loss in Game 7 of the World Series.That loss, paired with a Bills loss to the lowly Miami Dolphins this past week, resulted in a fan typing out a hilarious message and posting it in the streets of Toronto. "Please, please stop rooting for us," the message begins. "Toronto sports fans... This isn't funny anymore. The Dolphins? The Dolphins?"We get it -- you need something. The Leafs are hurting. The Raps are hopeless. And we can't imagine that Game 7, eleventh-inning, runner-on-third-with-one-out loss must have felt like. But are you noticing a common thread?"The individual al...

2 w. ago Almost half of Canada tuned into Toronto Blue Jays in Game 7 of the World Series

It's hard to fathom just how much support the Toronto Blue Jays had throughout Canada on their epic World Series run.Streets across the country were filled with fans donning Blue Jays apparel. It was the topic of conversation at restaurants and bars from coast to coast.The anticipation was valid, as this marked the first time the Jays advanced to the World Series since 1993. They came as close as possible to picking up their third championship, before falling to the LA Dodgers in an epic series that went the distance.Given the Blue Jays overcame the odds so often this season, many believed they were a team of destiny. When they flew back to Toronto with a 3-2 series lead, many expected the Commissioner's Trophy would be theirs.The Blue Jays wound up dropping Game 6, making way for an even more highly anticipated Game 7. It was so anticipated, in fact, that it wound up breaking TV records in Canada.An average audience of 10.9 million viewers tuned into Game 7 of the World Ser...

2 w. ago Former Toronto Blue Jays players defend fateful World Series baserunning choice

There were several what-if moments for the Blue Jays in Game 7 of the World Series, but none probably came closer than Isiah Kiner-Falefa being thrown out at home plate in the bottom of the ninth inning.Infielder Miguel Rojas, who also hit a game-tying home run in the top of the ninth, threw Kiner-Falefa out on a force play at the plate by a matter of inches after a Daulton Varsho ground ball.If Kiner-Falefa scored on the play, the game would've been over, and the Blue Jays would've won the World Series.IKF's small lead and a lack of a secondary was the difference for Toronto not winning a title. pic.twitter.com/LobrbNSCJa— Chris Kirschner (@ChrisKirschner) November 2, 2025Once the game had come to an end in eleven innings, many were quick to go back to that moment and point out how short of a lead Kiner-Falefa took off third base, and how a longer lead off either initially or once the pitch was thrown likely could've won the Blue Jays the World Series.This is ...

2 w. ago People still think Toronto Blue Jays deserve parade after World Series loss

The Toronto Blue Jays' heartbreaking World Series loss in Game 7 has left much of Canada in a disappointed funk, but a vocal contingent of the team's base is still calling for a parade to celebrate the team's historic playoff run — even if it didn't end the way the country had hoped.Toronto was just two outs away from winning a title, and even after losing a lead in the 9th inning, the Jays were again just inches from a World Series before ultimately falling to the Dodgers 5-4 in the 11th inning.It was about as close as you can get to a championship without actually getting the trophy — an achievement that fans still want recognized.Journalist Steve Paikin is one of the many prominent voices who have suggested a parade be held regardless of the loss. It's an idea that even some Dodger fans are getting behind.Dodger fan, here. I agree.— Dowe Kaufman (@kaufman64982) November 2, 2025One user called on Mayor Chow to organize a parade for the te...

2 w. ago Toronto Blue Jays reporter goes viral after World Series: 'The better team did not win'

The Toronto Blue Jays came up short in the World Series, but nobody can say they didn't give it their all up to the end.This was an underdog Blue Jays squad that went up against the most expensive MLB roster ever created in the LA Dodgers, and still found a way to push them to the very edge. Toronto was two outs away from winning it all, and forced the Dodgers to make a miracle comeback in the ninth inning to get past them.For many, the Blue Jays were the better team during this series just because of how much they dominated the Dodgers at times. They didn't come up with the championship in the end, that's true, but they exemplified everything you could want from a baseball team.That is an opinion surely held by Sportsnet reporter, and former MLB player, Caleb Joseph, who gave a brutally honest take while on the Rogers Centre field after the game. In a rare moment, we even saw the reporter swear on a live broadcast."It's gonna sound like sour grapes, and I don&#...
