Over/under on number of times Masai will talk about winning and wanting to win? Maybe it can be a drinking game.

The purpose of education is to win. You know who wins the most? The universities. Nobody wins as much as UofT. Every time I tell them "stop it, the tuition is high enough, you have already bled the students dry" they say "we can always do better". That's a winning mentality.

Do you not know what a Graduand is?

Man, I've got two degrees, and I've never heard that term before. Apparently I was a graduand twice and didn't even know it.

But to be fair, I didn't get my degrees at U of T - i.e. "Harvard North".

Yeah in all fairness it’s quite an uncommon word that is only used in Canada and the UK I think. I first heard of it when I graduated from UofT a couple years ago

Technically he is already a graduand. That is someone who is eligible to be graduated. He will be a graduate next Friday.

Imagine if Trudeau was Prime Minister of basketball operations for the Toronto Raptors. Thank god he is only running the country instead.

What a guy... he should be focusing on the draft/trades/free agency and not his secondary endeavors. This is easily worse than what Vince Carter did before Game 7.

Larry T was there and Masai spoke nicely of him. Special bond they have.

Congrats Masai
