The only NBA team in Canada
The past few seasons have been unsuccessful, causing major disrespect from Bandwagon Warriors and Cavs fan.
The Raptors got to shake their tail in the 2015-16 season after making the playoffs. Although 95% of NBA fans predicted a sweep by Indiana... And Miami... And Cleveland, Toronto proved their dumbass wrong.
The Raptors are the underdogs, even when playing the Lakers..
However, they are a very unexpected team to make it here.

Get the Toronto Raptors mug.The Toronto Raptors are the only NBA basketball team based in Canada. They are part of the Atlantic Division of the Eastern Conference. The team was established in 1995, along with the Vancouver Grizzlies, as part of the NBA's expansion into Canada. When the Grizzlies relocated to Memphis, Tennessee in 2001, the Raptors became the only Canadian team in the NBA. They originally played their home games in the SkyDome, before moving to the Air Canada Centre (ACC) in 1999.
Though many on the Urban Dictionary website purport the team to "suck", their supposed lack of success is put into question with the capturing of the 2006-07 Atlantic Division title.
Following the success of the 2006–07 season, Toronto became one of the league leaders in season ticket sales for the 2007–08 season, and their fanbase remains one of the most consistent in the NBA.

Get the toronto blue jays mug.Torontosis (pronunciation: tor-on-TO-sis) A common condition usually caught from extended time periods spent in the Toronto area. It usually goes unnoticed in Toronto because it is so endemic to the area it is often overlooked. Characterized by extremist views and behaviours which annoy and set them apart from the wider community.
Symptoms vary but often include:
1. Overwhelming need to natter on about their overly-specific interest area. Re-directs or relates all conversation back to their fixation.
2. Driving non-infected persons away with a condescending attitude/cult-like zeal/boring endless talk on one subject.
3. Annoyance at anyone who does not know the detailed minutia of, or enjoy their over-specific interests.
4. Extreme dietary restrictions.
5. Condescending attitude towards anyone who enjoys mainstream art, music, products, or alignment with a political party that currently has elected members in government.
6. Only willing to eat/buy products that follow an unreasonably narrow moral guideline.
7. Are incapable of controlling their need to berate others about how immorally they live their lives.
Treatment:
The only known treatment for Torontosis is to spend significant amounts of time away from their tiny community of people who share their worldview. Time in smaller cities or the countryside is best. Torontosis is one strain of a disease that plague other major cities, such as NewYorkosis, Londonitis, Seattle Syndrome, and Vancoveriasis.
