If Toronto and Vancouver could talk, and they had a conversation leading up to this Saturday's game between the Canucks and the Maple Leafs, it would probably go something like this:
Toronto: Oh hey little buddy! How's it going? Big game for your Canucks this weekend playing the Leafs, eh? How are you guys doing anyways?
V: We're leading our division, and we're sixth in the NHL right now.
T: Really? Who'd have known...
V: We've got the best team in Canada! You don't even know how well the Canucks are playing right now?
T: Nah. Last time we heard about you guys was when Ron MacLean was talking about that Burrows guy. Burrows – what a jerk eh?
V: Seriously? Don't you know what happened after that? It was the biggest sports story here for two weeks!
T: No idea.
V: MacLean's interview with Colin Campbell was completely one sided! The Canucks even boycotted the CBC last week by doing no interviews.
T: Really? We didn't even notice. You know no one past Alberta watches hockey after 10pm, right? So basically your team boycotted its own fans from interviews.
V: Grrr... I HATE you Toronto!
T: Haha, relax little guy! (Toronto ruffles Vancouver's hair. Vancouver scowls and pouts)
ha ha haaaaa! Toronto sounds patronising. but cool.
