THE MOJ: schadenfreude confuses me, except in the case of Toronto
There was a recent discussion on Twitter regarding schadenfreude – which is defined as the pleasure derived from another person’s misfortune.
Personally, I don’t have any issue with the hockey club per se. They play a very entertaining style that I find fun to watch but after covering sports for close to 30 years, you learn to cheer for people and not teams. After all, any time the Blue Jays or the Raptors go on a run, the rest of the country goes bonkers and everyone in Toronto knows it.As big of a baseball fan that I am, I never cheered for the Blue Jays during the Jose Bautista – Josh Donaldson era. I found that team to be extremely arrogant considering the fact that they never really accomplished anything unless you want to count three playoff game wins in a span of four years.
That being said, I was somewhat exuberant in the BMO Field press box last Oct. 8. That was the day the Lions were in Toronto to play the Argos and it was also the same day that the Mariners rallied from an 8-1 deficit to beat the Jays 10-9 and knock Toronto out of the MLB post-season.
