Post#1 » by markban21 » Mon Oct 21, 2019 6:46 pm

I assume someone more special than myself should start it... but come on, regular season starts tomorrow!! Where the GT at?

EDIT: IF we want to use this as the GT, it would be an honour, and I can update the Subject Title to reflect it.

I just want to talk game 1!!

EDIT 2: Despite my inferiority complex/low self esteem, I guess we're making this the GT. I will try not to let us down. We the Champs!

Whoever started the GT for Game 6 of the Finals should start the Season Opener GT.

Ho man, let’s hope our players don’t mail it in like our fans have. This thread should have been made weeks ago.

I literally refreshed the page just now to ask the same question when I saw this thread.

I would also like to suggest that in the game thread titles, the Raptors be referred to as "The Champs" and nothing else. No more Toronto Dinosaurs or any nonsense like that.

If not forever, then at least for this entire season until elimination.

I've been suffering lack of game thread anxiety this preseason. I don't want this extending into the regular season. You don't want me doing it, I warn you, as it will be filled with 37 trivia, unrelated obscure references, resulting in a, "What the hell was that!" from most readers.

Title defense begins in just a little over 28 hours. Banners will be raised, rings will be polished, and Lorenzo Brown will get his ring Xpressposted to Serbia.

From tomorrow onwards, people who go to a Raptors game will see a championship banner when they look up. Let's go champs!
