Sports "curses" are one of my favorite things about professional sports. It's just so funny to talk to people about a team's weaknesses and how those weaknesses have matched up poorly against other team's strengths, how the season's scheduling happened in such an unlucky way that created poor win momentum, how player injury and such created unfortunate gaps, and so on, and then ultimately someone will conclude, "It's the Curse, of course." Usually, everyone will nod, because yes, the Curse That Keeps Your Team From Winning, this is known.
#for context: this is kind of about the Leafs who haven't won the Stanley Cup since 1967 and may legitimately be cursed#longest running Cup drought in the NHL babyyyyy!!! 57 years and counting!!! (Canada hasn't had a Cup at all since the 90s)#sometimes I think that the entire NHL will somehow fold before the Leafs are allowed to win another Stanley Cup#which is probably for the best; if you even let them into the final then the GTA may burn to the ground whatever happens; Keep! Them! Out!#tossawary sports
