If you’re a Toronto sports fan, you’ve had a busy fall. You watched the Blue Jays stumble down the stretch in September, only to find their footing just in time to win the AL East on the regular season’s final day.

That led to one of the greatest World Series ever played, with the underdog Jays giving the fat cat Dodgers all they could handle before losing a h...

The Montreal Canadiens that we’ve come to know and love this season did not show up on Tuesday night at the Bell Centre. With the Los Angeles Kings in town, they bumbled their way to a 5-1 loss, sending a number of fans off to beat the traffic with a fair amount of time left in the third period. From the net out, this was easily the worst game they’ve played this year, and one they need to get past quickly. Monty what on earth are you trying to do here? pic.twitter.com/9Tsnvma8kG &md...

Dabo Swinney has fired two coordinators in recent years, and he has spent a lot of money on replacements. Garrett Riley has made positive strides in his third year leading the offense, but the Clemson program probably didn’t expect Tom Allen to take long to get the defense back on track.

It’s never a good sign when players get hurt one after another at the same position.
