dude he's clearly trolling you, everyone who's lived in Toronto and speaks english knows who the Jays, Leafs, and Raptors are

[MrRobDex]

@Love4SK why don't you look them up.....they suck as much as the leafs and then you can piss off back to barrie where you belong

[MrRobDex]

@Love4SK guess you like loser teams that are easy like the fn leafs.....or the raptors.....the worst thing about people that move to Toronto are people who move to Toronto....why don't you fuck off back to vaughne or ajax or whatever part of the country that doesn't mean anything you're from.
