Canadian sports lovers aren’t satisfied with consistent bad performances from their sporting teams. All we want is to have a bet on a team that wins more than they lose. Its bad enough we have to keep watching our best skaters go and win Stanley Cups for the American franchises but why can’t the Blue Jays become competitive? The days that the Jays were the real deal are a distant memory for ball fans this side of the border especially for proud Canadian betters that always follow home teams.

The Blue Jays Manager, Cito Gaston who recently returned to the team after missing two games to attend his sister’s funeral, commented on a disastrous road trip that saw the Jays lose 8 from 10 starts even though they were competitive in every game.
