![]() I swear, Feschuk does one column a week just devoted to Toronto being the "city of losers". It's getting old.

![]() Okay, so we haven't won a championship since 93, but you can't keep repeating the same stuff week in, week out. It's stale.

The fact that they constantly cover losing teams and essentially sweep aside the Raptors, who are a playoff team is strange at best. But such is the life of a sports fan in this city/country, well ones who aren't infatuated with Hockey. |

![]() How much Raptors coverage do you need jeff or is just the principle?
You spend all day on a message board dedicated to scouring the internet to find even the samellest tidbit discussing them with a bunch of diehards. They have a whole television station primarily dedicated to them, all of their games are now televised (I suspect you weren't a fan back in the day when there were quite a few west coast/road games that didn't air) and you can watch online the scrum after every practice and shoot around and all the post game stuff. What more do you want? |

Fair and balanced coverage? Who cares and why does it matter to you so much? If the majority of poeple did care, they would get that coverage. I don't even watch sports news looking for Raptors related stuff as everything is online. This is the best it's ever been being a Raptors fan. We have access to stuff that we couldn't even imagined ten to fifteen years ago. |

![]() When it comes playoff time, particularly if they make a run at a decent seeding, the coverage is going to be all over the place. People that hate basketball will be on board if they win a series.

![]() I think Doug Smith was talking to Fesschuck in the below quote from his blog this morning.

![]() Jeff's comments are extremely important here.
More general media coverage = more mediocre fans turning into raps = more raps buzz = more ticket/merchandise sale = MLSE makes more and may be willing to spend more ========= ANOTHER ALL-STAR in TO beside Bosh!!! ![]() |
