Dear Leafs, I'm breaking up with you

[DetroitTigersFan187]

if ur gonna give up on the leafs thats fine with me, but DONT YOU FUCKING DARE BECOME A FAN OF MY RED WINGS!!!!!!!!

Hockeytown USA has no time for bandwagoners

[piratenmedmask]

I commented on this a few years ago. I always kept this video in mind because I knew the day would come. THE LEAFS ARE A TOP TEAM AGAIN!!!!! We did lose against bruins last night though but we are among the best teams in the leauge! SUCK IT UP YOU WAGONER!!!!!!!!!

[stratola]

@piratenmedmask Yes, they're 6th in the East. Congrats! May want to un-reserve your parade route seat you planned out a few weeks ago.

[piratenmedmask]

@stratola The maple leafs are on their way to the play offs

[ottawasenatorsfan19]

leafs sucks go sens go the onley teams i hate is toronto and st-louis

[roryfitzpatric]

Fair weather fan.

[Quibify]

fuckin pussy

[jhoncena804]

this year will be just like the Aubin era.. Reimer came in for the end of the season to destroy the NHL in goal tending but next year he wont come back.. the leafs will do shit and they will have no1 to blame but the management for not making changes that will actually help them.. but hopefully it wont turn out that way and next year they go all the way.. GO LEAFS GO

[ckendall67]

It's clips like these that symbolize today's sports fans: FRONTRUNNERS. :-p Only support teams that win every year or are in 1st place, but the minute those teams begin to falter, JUMP SHIP & find a new team to cheer for & proclaim that you've been cheering for said team your whole life when you only began following them LAST WEEK! :-p

[ckendall67]

@ckendall67 Leaf fans are always the ONLY fans that are regularly blasted for our loyalty, but we are no different from anyone as far as fan loyalty goes. Only thing is, the Leafs haven't done very well for a long time, so we are supposed to just throw it all away & dump the Leafs as if they don't exist. Like I said, today's fans don't even know what loyalty for your favourite team through thick & thin is anymore. Just jump from 1st place team to the next 1st place team & all is well:-p

[darcylindzon]

check this one out:

TORONTO MAPLE LEAFS! STANLEY CUP, or...

[LadyZeppelinX]

GO RED WINGS!!!!!

[fourseam33]

I've seen shit like this on the commercials for 'The Bachelorette'....(totally see how you were trying to make this funny... but it didn't work). One word for you my friend: Coward. Ya they blow ass, and they frustrate me more than getting a new puppy every week. but there's not a damn thing in this world I would ever trade for my memories of watching Dougie, Wendel down at the gardens with my dad. We're better off without fans who post vids like this on Youtube. Go Leafs Go

[capano93]

hahahah THANK GOD cause leafs nation does not need a stiff like you!!! good riddance u fucking dave bolland look a like!!! hahhahha

[fiddlestick89]

Why does this sound alot like this year haha

[V340E419]

Guess what? Conn Smythe said after the leafs won in 66-67 that they would never win the cup again. Still true till this day.

[TheRealDerfMan]

Leafs fans don't even know that The St. Pats or The Arenas were NOT the same franchise as "The Maple Leafs". So, technically, the Leafs only have 11 cups, like The Red Wings. Imagine if the Montreal Canadiens started taking credit for the cups won by the Wanderers, AAA, or Maroons...

Proper research is important when making a point. Like when people try to say the Habs had an edge with the "french-canadian draft" thing. Go read what Liam Maguire has to say about that. Proper research, folks...

[LeamingtonLiberators]

Quitter

[leafsfan866]

what a dick...owen nolan was sick for us

[22TazmanianDevil1987]

Lol This is pretty funny but you would think you would start cheering for a better team then Ottawa or Montreal they both get there but in the end they both choke pretty well....Im a leafs fan and i actually rather them not make the playoffs then make it and get excited and see them get kicked out first or second round....The leafs will get better and the day they do make the playoffs they will go all the way and make it worth while and have a great run

[kovalev27c]

very good video! And now, the maple leafs are officially crowned (unofficially they were always) the worst team in the NHL. Thanks to the blackhawks cup win!

[fuknazi90]

THERES ALOT OF THIN AND NO THICK HHAHAH FUNNY SHIT MAN

[meeker007]

what a fairy

[technophobe88]

Start cheering for Manchester Phoenix. They're awesome but travel costs may be a bit more expensive to watch them

[2muchdutch]

I feel you man. At some point, you just can't take getting sucker punched year after year after letting yourself get emotionally invested. =/

[1616starbuck]

very funny video. "going all the way. a fan has needs, lmao."

How about those red wings? good organization. I'm a leafs fan, but i do like the red wings.

Don't be a habs fan!

B

[Grrrstin]

hahahaaa this is amazing. i just hope this isn't me and the buffalo bills in 20 years.

[eaedens]

simmons

[stevenching73]

The first thing I think of with this video is all of the weak-souled individuals who are giving up on the Pistons this year. They should think of this guy when they act like they've suffered. The only reason they don't understand is because they never even became a Lions fan, because their fathers warned them against it. Detroit at least has something to feel good about. I HATE the Maple Leafs, but I feel for their fans nonetheless.

[dvpap]

Try being a knicks and vikings fan man.... i dont watch hockey but i feel your pain!

[TheKyleBaxter]

I'd invite you to come to the Bruins... but you can't handle this crap twice. I'd recommend the Blackhawks. Good young team and they are in the other division, so if you get weak and start cheating with the Leafs again (it'll happen, I broke up with the Bruins 5 years ago and we're dating again) it'll be harder for the Hawks to find out. That league division is like going over the ocean.

Good luck, fine sir. Good luck.

[Tasermaxx]

Minnesota Vikings, we need to talk.

[Leaffaninalberta]

Gee now that this team IS getting better with schenn, dion, giguare, kessel, kadri ripping u[ the OHL, stephanivch doing the same in the Q I wonder if your seeing the error of your ways and have jumped back on the band wagon.

[vikingrich]

I thought this would be funny, but it just comes off as whiney.

[ptrain191]

Can't imagine what you're feeling, I've been a Red Wings fan my whole life. You should become a Red Wings fan. Become a fan of the greatest franchise in hockey

[Vantom91]

@ptrain191 You don't understand? Well you became a Wings fan after 1997.

[Nomer77]

@Vantom91 his profile says he was 23, so yeah he pretty much became a Red Wings fan a few years before 1997, but still it is his whole life. The same works in reverse, how many Leafs fans are well under 43 and yet claim to have suffered all those years without making the Stanley Cup Finals?

[Vantom91]

Ahhh, but isnt that still a point.  While anyone who isnt old enough to remember 1967 (Myself included) can't say they've suffered through all 43 years of it, but then again they can say they have suffered through their entire life.

[ptrain191]

Yeah Simmons

[Hambone9008]

simmons

[andrewptob]

Dumb.

Your team is your team. If they stink your whole life, suck it up and live with it.

[stratola]

@andrewptob So it's like being in the mafia? Once you choose a team you can never change?

[andrewptob]

Sort of, I guess, I just think that, typically, if you're born in a certain region or grow up rooting for a certain team, you're pretty much stuck with them. I mean, how do you choose to root for instead...?

[stratola]

@andrewptob but if you just sit there and take it, why would a team want to improve? Our money talks. Stop going to the games, stop buying jerseys

[Thoroldhawk]

@andrewptob Find your favourite player, or a team with your favourite style of play. I live in southern Ontario but I'm a flyers fan because of Gagne.

[greenday123ps]

Simmons!!!!!!!!!!! (eff you that boy)

[buzzardboots]

"I've already canceled Leafs TV... there wasn't much on it, anyway." Hysterical.

Funny vid - I'd love to seen an update now that they've "improved" the team with Kessel and Phaneuf!

[AlmondCountryVideos]

simmons!!! ftw

[dylanhighway61]

As a Vikings fan its hard for me to feel sorry for a Leafs fan. Plus, my North Stars left, then won the cup with the team that was assembled in Minny in Dallas a few laters. This video is funny though.

[ldc62]

this guy got free stuff?????? wow

[matthew16901]

i resent the simmons dicksucker comments. ok i'll write "Simmons" in the comments of every youtube video he mentions in the hope that he'll think i am cool and look me up and we'll become friends but i wouldn't suck his dick. that's disgusting

[Deebe83]

Simmons

[thatboyhov]

look at all the simmons dick suckers

[birch5757]

Hey, I may be a simmons dicksucker, but this is a funny fucking video. Btw, to the guy who made the simmons dick sucking comment....wouldn't you have to know that simmons mentioned this in his article, or at least had him in mind when you came to this video to make the comment? I believe that would make you a simmons dicksucker as well. Just a thought.

[generalnsj]

Simmons!!!!

[zifnab96967]

I am a vikings fan, and I have been for my entire life...

I feel your pain, and I just want you to know that somehow, someday, you will find a team that loves you. One that treats you right and respects you. Some day...We have to hold on to this hope...

[beegir2002]

The cubs fans are waiting for a championship after nearly 100 years... the cleveland browns fans are still waiting... yet this guy, who wasn't even born when the leafs last won cup is leaving his team for another.... you can hae him.... the leafs don't need thrash like him...

[stratola]

@beegir2002 no no, the Leafs "are" trash, so having fans of the same would make sense, no?

[SomeSortofGenius]

What are Browns fans still waiting for? Their NINTH championship? You know, to go with the ones they won in '46, '47, '48, '49, '50, '54, '55, and '64, right?

[BiffScooter1]

And the Centre of the Universe wonders why we haaaaaate Make Beliefs and their fans sooooo much. This guy reeks of Taranna. If I need to explain what that means to you out there, then heaven help you.

[stratola]

@BiffScooter1 english man...

[BiffScooter1]

Dear Al "Barcode" Strachan-tola,

What the what does your comment mean? I'm not English and, in fact, next to Laffs fans hate the Land of Eng with a passion esp. their annoying soccer fans (oops, football supporters).

[TheGrimTruth]

I love how all my fellow Leafs fans trashed this guy saying we'd be good and he'd be sorry... Look at us now... 17-27-10, last in the division, 3rd last in the NHL... No 1st round pick... But hey, at least we have Kessel and his 15 goals and 31 points in 41 games... He might almost be able to top his career high 60 points. Oh wait... This team has been terrible for the majority of all of our lives and we're all stupid enough to pretend the sun will soon rise on this franchise. Idiots we may be.

[YungZ905]

@TheGrimTruth and look at us now. its not like their making progress right???

[TheGrimTruth]

@YungZ905 And what did that progress get us? A 6th straight season out of the playoffs. At the time of my post our GM had said he wouldn't rebuild through the draft. It wasn't until over a season later that he changed his mind and started bringing in picks and prospects. But, just because there is progress doesn't mean they are a playoff team anytime soon. Reimer could be the next Carey or Leclaire, Kessel is a 60 point player. There's call for optimism, sure, but there's still a lot of work.

[livinejs]

For those of you who came here thanks to Simmons and don't know who Scott is, he is "Kind of a big deal on Twitter" and an all around great guy. @Unmarketing

Bill Simmons, the entire 2008 Cubs Dodgers series was a stomach punch game. The home run off Carlos Marmol in 2007 was a stomach punch moment. Leafs fan, I'm sorry.

[brutallyunbiased]

hockeyfan9911,

And when that day comes we will once again witness the Leafs destroying your boring sens in the playoffs.
