The Toronto Maple Leafs Haiku
A Canadian weighs in...
You only get three
lines: it's too funny for me;
too sad for your fans.
Note: I wrote this after the team choked out in the second round (their first time there in 19 years). As a Montréal Canadians fan, I try not to laugh at the bozos on blades...but it is hard to do so...

Haha nice!
This was a good one! I heard this team didn't know there even was a second around, lol! I'm a fellow Canadian and I approve of this message! Nicely done Kendall!
Well done!!! Left some love!!!💖💖💕
I love your Toronto Maple Leafs logos, especially featuring the golfer! And yes, Roy, there are no mulligans on Vocal, lol.
Can I only like this once? Damn! Ya gotta get back to those Scottsdale golf courses before they get too crowded Kendall! As a Habs fan who's been stuck in Southern Yawntario for waaaay too long I abhor the Maple Loafs and rejoice in their endless failures. I'm surprised they didn't award themselves Lord Stanley's cup for actually getting to the second round AND winning one game! Go Habs Go ❗❗ We live in hope of a return to glory...
