    Ohhh okay. Did he tweet about it or something?
    I relish negativity and disappointment. It is not healthy. Somebody buy me a pony.

        Got my tickets ... and yes, Tyler will probably start THIS game.
        The only way to bag a classy lady is to give her two tickets to the gun show... and see if she likes the goods.

                      Halifax is a great city. Good eats, great bars...but the weather can really suck.

                        Wow, douche of the year award goes to.....

                        Allow me to educate the ignorant.

                        Halifax has a proud basketball tradition, hosting the CIS Championship for many years. The Metro Center provides a great game facility, while the Canada Games Center offers the team a state of the art training facility.

                        Many NBA (and other professional) teams host a portion of their training camp away from their regular practice facility, as it allows for more team bonding and exposure to other markets. Since the Raps have stated multiple times that they want to be more "Canada's team", then hosting away from Toronto makes sense. The team obviously enjoyed last year so much that they decided to come again. It's a great city to visit, Id' recommend you try it, but you might not be welcome with that attitude.

                          I kept thinking it was in Halifax because there were no distractions there (family, friends) so they could focus on ball and ball alone,
                          thankyou sir thanks for the history lesson, pretty good to know

                              Seems like I upset the people that live in the bloody Styx of Canada. Halifax sucks not even the people that live there really want to live there.

                              Plenty of options the Raps could have went to if they want players to fall in love with Canada. You never run into anyone who says hey you know where I want to go? Halifax that place is amazing....

                              Well I take some of that back it cant be as bad as Saskatchewan.

                                Halifax was always referred to as the basketball capital of Canada when we were hosting the CIS/CIAU National Championships for close to 25 straight years.
