How Long Do We Keep With This same Crap?

Did you know a man named Crapper invented the modern toilet.  I used to know a Crapper family back in the 60's..  Hence Crap!

Thomas Crapper was his name and he didn't invent the modern day toilet. He did improve the toilet and some of his improvements are still in use today like the ballcock(interesting name, which he invented).

He's not where the word Crap comes from though.

Somebody grab an OED.  I used to have one of those reduced-type sets: something like 29 volumes shrunk down to 4.  Came with a nice magnifying glass.  Absolutely useless.

The original word is the Dutch krappen (pluck or cut off). It may be related to the Anglo-Latin crappa (chaff), but it then became the Dutch krappe, and finally the Middle English crap. The current use dates from the late 19th century.
 
I felt better after I saw that Tampa Bay is actually doing worse than the Leafs.  Not long ago Tampa had a losing record.  They were the betting favorites to win the cup this year, with the Leafs being second.

That being said at the moment they (TB) are only 4 points behind and with 4 games in hand.
Lot of teams right behind us with games in hand.
Leafs start is horrible in my mind and majority of those games were at home.
Bob McKenzie on first up today and question was will the Leafs be in a playoff spot once Mitch gets back.
I hope so but I think this start and some of you don't think it's a bad one is going to hurt us.

Hopefully Mitch isn't out too long.
team played well with Matthews in the past hopefully they can do the same with Marner.
