Unfortunately they announced the 50/50 number with a minute left in the game so I was forced to stay, and I didn't win that either. A horrible night all around.

0/5 in Toronto when I attend.
I just listened to the post game comments by both those guys...and I don't know if they're out to lunch, on drugs, or trying to be positive, but they don't seem nearly as disappointed as they should be in how the game went.

I don't like the overall attitude of the team at all this year. I've seen Gulutzan's coaching style by now (I don't like it), but I am actually quite alarmed by Gio's response, I thought he had more fire than this. Seems like they are far too comfortable with these outcomes.
