I actually don't notice the media hype around the Leafs. TSN to me, doesn't really seem that biased about the Leafs - I hear it all the time, but when I watch it, I just don't see it. Sportsnet Pacific however? Now there's a clear bias to the Canucks and much, much worse than TSN. I understand the whole regional thing, but I really don't see Leaf bias on TSN.

That's why it seems like hating the Leafs is just the popular thing to do. I can understand if a guy like Cheese hates the Leafs, 'cause he grew up listening to non-stop Leafs talk in the 1930s, but for the younger guys, I just don't get it...
