Leafs Blow
By andybyers

This is sort of "future news".  I woke up this morning to the news that the Toronto Maple Leafs were out of the playoffs, and I laughed and said 'what's new?'  It just kind of rolled into this. :)

Leafs blow

October, 2008 — Six days into the 2008-2009 NHL season, the Toronto Maple Leafs are officially out of the playoffs, having been beaten 77-2 by a girls' lacrosse team from Tumbleweeds, Saskatchewan.

But the key thing is, was there a fight??! It's the only time they ever show ice hockey here. Did the girl's lacrosse team all pile in on the goalkeeper and give him a good puck up the arse??! (my coat is on) I guess this piece means more to a fan... maybe you could have rolled it out a little further.

Coosh, the Leafs suck. We don't WANT them to suck...but they do. There's really nothing more to it than that.

So do Partick Thistle, but a Not News piece could stretch further than getting hammered by a bunch of sausage-stuffers from Drumnadrochit.

I support Arsenal and we got hammered by a bunch of sausage loathers from Tottenham, God help us! 
Fortunately, as far as spoof news articles are concerned: "Nothing to see, here."

Count yourself Lucky, our football team are so bad the new owners are going to change the name to a fictitious town!
