Is it just me or the raptors have reached leafs status in terms of popularity/fandom?

When it comes to hardcore fans the raps are neck to neck with the leafs.

Jays are bigger with casual fans.

Outside of baby boomers and gen x and half of vaughan/whitby/georgetown/oshawa cacs, the raps dominate the city

Raps got the under 40 folks(millenials-gen z Of all races- white folks included)
The non-white crowd
The immigrant crowd(all races)
The White liberals

People who only follow the leafs are the 45 and over folks

Rogers centre is half full this year with an exciting jays team.

I remember back in the bautista-encarnacion-donaldson era skydome was packed every game, now that we have a team who is just as good/fun, plenty of empty seats. :dwillhuh:

The pandemic really changed the habits of toronto sports fans i guess.

jays have been the biggest disappointment in baseball this year

As well remember many people work from home now, the days of going to work and then going to a restaurant and then catching a jays game and the train home is over

my main office is right across from eatons centre, U've been downtown once this year and thats when i flew porter to nyc

:francis: how many rappers is that so far?


:francis:all i see here is a young man (struggling?) looks like they're not really up like that. Young breh woulda been better off with a trade and a girlfriend rather than rap aspirations. I mean damn there needs to be a better job done to steer our youth to better outcomes. smh. displaying ounces of weed like everyone doesn't have access to herb these days.

Do some of these rap nikkas even work on their craft at all?? Or is the bar this low nowadays?

if all you can get is 6,000 views it might be time for a career change. There is way to much opportunities and black brehs continue to waste it. Trade school, my cousin came from jamaica like 4 years ago. Learned how to be a welder and is now making good bank.
