Am I supposed to give a shit that Toronto has won a World Series and an nba championship, because of geography or recency of their team?

Because I don’t.  And I don’t understand why they would care that their sport has been steadily growing in the United States and as a result has many newish teams in previously unlikely places, and those teams are sometimes good enough to win the cup? 
 

their teams are competing within the same financial architecture, why can’t they win some cups?

Leafs fans are some of the biggest pussies around. Much like Knicks fans, they think the sport of hockey revolves around the Leafs even though they haven’t won shit since the ‘60s. Shit players and teams are somehow magically transformed into elite teams when they throw on the maple leaf sweater. Their level of delusion rivals aggy.

They are the Cowboys but worse. 

So winning is worse?

Agree with Vertuzi, this fucking sucks. Not burn your collection bad, but damn.

At least we have the Celtics.

I remember Dallas in the 1980's when they were playing youth hockey at Prestonwood shopping mall. Hockey was a novelty to Texans in the 70's and 80's. I remember going to a Flyers/Oilers game at Reunion on September 30, 1987......the greatest team ever assembled with Gretzky, Messier, Fuhr, Kurri, Anderson, etc - and they were having to explain the rules of the game to the folks that showed up.

You fucking Stars and Avs fans better appreciate your GMs for what they do to keep your teams in the hunt. You could be stuck with a knuckle-dragging chimp like Don Sweeney who should have been ran out of Boston last year. He’s completely fucked this franchise and I’m concerned he’s going to fuck the future of this franchise because he can’t draft worth an ever-loving fuck. Guy has done nothing but piss off our best players with his stupid antics. I feel terrible for Pastrnak, McAvoy, and Swayman. Those three are probably asking “What the fuck has happened to this team?”

Yeah, Sakic has been amazing for the Avs, both as a player and now a GM/President.  I know he's not the GM anymore, but I also know nothing is happening without his blessing. And he and MacFarland are not afraid to make bold moves if they feel it is necessary.

Beninati is very good.  He describes a balanced account of the game.  He’s also a walking hockey encyclopedia.

Laughlin, the Caps lifer, is an insufferable homer who never finds anything wrong with the good guys.  Sometimes I just have to roll my eyes.  But, I truly hope he’s recovered sufficiently from recent open heart surgery to be present on the call to celebrate THE milestone with the rest of Caps diehard homers.
