OT: The Official Toronto Raptors Thread

[aniablue]

VanVleet's story is quite incredible. Guy has so much belief in himself, rents a room to celebrate getting drafted and doesn't get drafted. Did he cry into his milk? Or beer? No, guy has gone on to become, quite the player.

I dunno if he is my favourite Toronto athlete of all time. I think Dougie is still the guy, despite wanting to poach al my top Gf's. But VanVleet is darn close. Such a plucky talented guy.

And yeah, this team is a lot of fun to root for, cheer for and be a part of. I have to think Masai and Nurse are a big part of that. They have to be.

That image of Vanvleet on the ground with blood pouring from his eye is one of the most iconic things you'll ever see. He's a warrior.

And the look on his face when he hit that 3 in game 6? He's a gamer.

 

[Jeremy]

Not sure how he didn’t get drafted. He’s a straight up soldier/leader.

It really was. Too bad so many got murdered by guns. Wizards is gay.

 

[MindzEye]

Speaking of gay....Milwaukee's alternate jerseys

Yeah, that actually says cream city.

 

[MyNameIsJonas]

Apparently it has nothing to do with dairy, but in the late 1800's all the bricks in Wisconsin were an off yellow color

 

[MindzEye]

Apparently it has nothing to do with dairy

That's what I was insinuating, yeah.

 

[MyNameIsJonas]

That's what I was insinuating, yeah.

Has nothing to do with that either. Though bless the colour guy who makes the first facial comment

 

[aniablue]

Cream City? Seriously?
