Feels like everyone wants a smoking gun with a struggling team, where a coach screaming accountability will magically turn things around.
The Colts tried that emergency fix in 2022 and went 1-7.
They aren't losing because of accountability.
They're losing because they're bad.
@mirtle@PantryDerek@jonassiegel@mirtle revisiting this one. Quoting you from Bunkis yesterday. “Leafs are down .7 goals per game this season and .5 of those are because of Matthews.” Can we please agree that his health/lack of production is the headline and not a footnote?
@mirtle@PantryDerek@jonassiegel I never said he did…? I’m saying 60 5on5 goals is currently 5th in the league. The leafs have 55. A healthy Matthews to start the season gets us to 60.
@mirtle@PantryDerek@jonassiegel I’m just saying it’s a bit misleading to say they’re 18th, without the proper Matthews context considering his prorated career average gets them to 60 5on5 goals for the year which ties them for 5th in the league. Let’s see where they end up.
Can’t wait for the scene in Full Swing Season 5 when Keegan calls JT, “Hey J-Tizzle, Keegs here, you will NOT be on this year’s team. Go fuck yourself.”
