My name is Ian, I just graduated from McMaster University (in Hamilton Ontario - the Pittsburgh of Canada) in structural engineering. Now I do boring engineering stuff, so I've got lots of time for fantasy baseball.
I've been a Jays fan my whole life, though I cheer for the Padres in the NL. Raptors and Leafs fan too, and a Patriots fan - but only when they're winning, otherwise I couldn't care less about American football. I've been playing fantasy baseball for 7 years now, but this will be my first significant money league, so I'm looking forward to it.
On an unrelated note, if the Jays manage to pull off this Alex Rios for Tim Lincecum trade, we're gonna win 100 games.

"The Pittsburgh of Canada" I always envisioned Mississauga as being very Pittsburghesque.
Also, The Raptors are soooo much fun to watch. Jamario Moon was playing in Albany last year in the CBA. He's the shit. Serious.

The Pittsburgh of anywhere is probably a bad place to live...I hate actual Pittsburgh so why would any city want to be like that? Stupid overrated Steelers and their toothless, cousin marrying fans!
Go Browns!

A Patriots fan?!?! Who invited this guy? Just kidding man. Anyway, it's gonna be fun when the Colts go into New England, and Addai runs all over that overrated Patriots defense. Tell the press to keep talking about New England. The Colts will just continue to dominate and get healthier.

Hamilton is full of steel factories, hence the Pittsburgh comparison. . .and people in Mississauga are able to make enough money to live (What's the difference between a Canadian steel worker and a large pizza - a large pizza can feed a family) so that comparison only applies if Pittsburgh has become a giant, boring, suburb of something.
Jamario Moon does ridiculous things on the basketball court - our team has a ton of shooters and very few great athletes, so fans are surprised anytime someone gets a rebound, or, you know, jumps. Moon's practically handing out heart attacks.

Handing out heart attacks! I love it. That is some funny shit.
How about TJ Fords fall a few nights back? It looked scary.

Yeah, especially with his injury history. . .but Calderon(the backup) is great, probably better than TJ, so we're OK without him, though Darrick Martin(3rd string) is by far the worst player in the NBA. He has a very hard time making it past midcourt one-on-one with an opposing player. Seriously.
