Game #3: Raptors Beat Bucks, Remain perfect

MILWAUKEE (RT) -- Jose Calderon scored a career-high 25 points as the Toronto Raptors defeated the Milwaukee Bucks 91-87 on Saturday night to improve their record to 3-0. If history is any indication, their season is all but fucked.

The only other time the Raptors opened the season 3-0 was the 2004-05 campaign. Let's take a look at some of the highlights of that shitastrous season:

- After opening the season 3-0, the Raptors finished up 33-49, missed the playoffs and tied the New York Knicks for last place in the Atlantic Division;

- Rafael Araujo - drafted 8th overall in the 2004 entry draft by dumb fuck GM Rob Babcock - played like a piece of shit and sported some of the worst tattoos and haircuts in NBA history;

- Wince Carter demanded a trade and Babcock shit himself. He traded the perennial all-star to the New Jersey Nets for a bunch of guys named Williams and Alonzo Mourning. Mourning never showed up, and for some fucking reason Babcock didn't suspend the cock sucker. Instead, he bought out Mourning's contract for $10 million;

- Milt Palacio was the back-up point guard;

- Rafer Alston was yapping about Sam Mitchell like a little shit, and eventually he was suspended two games at the end of the season for "conduct detrimental to the team" (a.k.a being a twat);

So, the moral of the story is that before all you numbnuts out there get too excited about the Raptors' 3-0 start, just remember they've been there once before. And the whole fucking thing imploded.

Granted, this team bears no resemblance to the 2004-05 team, so this is merely fear-mongering . But it was nice to take a trip down memory lane, wasn't it.

I remember that 2004-05 season, I would spend most of the time rolling around on the ground in front of my TV holding my nuts and howling in pain. Those dark days are behind us, and now when I watch the games I hold my nuts and giggle with glee.
