This streak hasn’t influenced my opinion of the team in the slightest. I’m not undermining our efforts against Orlando and Chicago, just stating that a 5-game winning streak does not earn anyone a reprieve for the disastrous season we’ve had. The biggest mistake a team can make is look at false positives late on in…
Speak up: 1) If you had to sum up the Raptors performance the last few games in one word, it would be…. 2) If you could put together an allstar team of Raptors television announcers, who would you have as in-studio host and on air (colour and talking head)? Must be present or past Raptor…
Is there anything to be salvaged of this crew? Enough talk about Chris Bosh’s possible exit from Toronto or whether Calderon’s been injured or just crappy. It’s time to look towards the end of the bench and see just exactly what we have there and whether any of it is worth bringing back. The Raptors…
Steve finds DeRozan attractive The first weekend of the tournament is over and with it some 2/3’s have returned back to their respective campuses with nothing to show (including my beloved Bruins). However, 16 teams remain and will meet again starting this Thursday. Last week I speculated on the Raps drafting a PG and previewed…
I love the internet and the world of blogging. If I write that the Raptors could win 50 games if Colangelo goes out and makes one more move to solidify his bench (as I did after the O’Neal trade) I get labeled a homer and told that I’m part of the problem with fans in…
You just know they tried to get an actual “high-flyer” to rep the contest but when no one would step up, they all looked at each other and said, “Who’d be willing to come on YouTube, read a lame script, and sign a jersey he won’t be wearing at the end of next season? Chris…
Still a few hours left to sign up for RR March Madness Pool. If you are planning on taking a few days off to keep a close eye on who might fall into the Raptors laps this year, let me give you a bit of a breakdown on where to look and who to keep…
The ‘should we burn this mother down’ edition: Even if we got a top 5 pick, are you confident that BryCo will make the right selection? Does anyone really care that 5 of the last 9 games of the season are being shown on TSN2? If I was to organize a raid on the ACC,…
You fill out the bracket. If you win, you come here and brag. If you finish last, you never ever talk about NCAA basketball. Sounds pretty fair to me. It’s an all-inclusive pool so all you need to do is go to the following link. No password is required. Raptors Republic NCAA Tournament Pool You…
I BRINGZ DA PAIN!! Calderon: What the heck is going on? Has he recovered or is he just having a couple good games? Iavaroni is in the house: What can we make of this, if there is anything to be made? Pops: Thoughts, is he playing for a contract or has the kid been slept…
The men and women at the home-office in Athabasca, Alberta are working overtime. The category is Top Ten Prophecies For Next Season. The Raptors will have 4-7 new players and 4-7 new fans. Paper bags will replace jerseys as the best selling merchandise item. MLSE will officially change the meaning of ACC to “Armored Cash…
Is it me, or does Bosh seem more excited to give a weather report then win games? #boshsucks if you are on twitter (we have to call him out, can’t let him get off scott-free!) If Smitch was still the coach, would the Raptors be in the playoff hunt? (do we even care?) Is it…
