The Irrelevant "Problem" II
This blog is written mostly tongue in cheek. Some points may be informative. Please provide your feedback.
If you suffer from self-irrelevancy, please seek professional advice.
Hello. Today Richard Peddie, Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment (MLSE) president, said it was a mistake to hire Leafs GM John Ferguson Jr because he was a rookie when he came in. 4 years ago. How irrelevant a statement is that? What other business could someone tolerate their boss saying that?
The truth is, the on-ice performance of the Toronto Maple Leafs is irrelevant. It has been ever since Harold Ballard took over the team over 35 years ago. And while some fans may think they have been legitimate Stanley Cup contenders in that time, Ballard made the Leafs what they are today - a team that rakes in dough no matter how poorly they do on the ice.
I've always hated Harold Ballard, yet I'll be the first to object if someone wants to take him out of the Hockey Hall of Fame. He was brilliant making winning irrelevant.
Regards,
Irrelevant
