MLB ALLSTAR GAME
The home run tournament was entertaining i must admit but the game itself well in a all star game when the score is 8 - 0 its less interesting. The fact that the game now has some incentive with the winning team receiving home field advantage in the world series. I would have thought it would have been closer but I'm still happy because this just means as a proud Canadian we are one day closer to hockey season

Todays Maple Leafs
Wow is pretty much all a FAN can say right now after all the talk from Brian Burke. He states he is confedent in the goaltending now, which is what he said at the trade deadline.
Of course that lead us to a spot well out of the playoffs. We're told we need a 1st line centre and put our hopes on Tim Connolly who well under achived. At the trade deadline leafs nation heard from Burke only in the signing of Mikhail Grabovski. At the tail end of a contract which was un fruitfull with Mike Komisarek at 5 million a year for three years a another avarage player reaches the same deal. With the adition of Van Reimsdyk some size is brought to the front end which is much needed. Althogh this comes at the cost of size on the back end in the trade going the other way is leading checker Luke Sheen . If Brian Burke cant pull off a trade for Nash or a first line centre it seems the leafs are doomed to fall short this year with a lack of goaltending and size.
