This episode of NO GPS After Sunset has Aharon recounting his very strange and weird Toronto Raptor fan experience (like seriously, I did not think a podcast on the Raptors would ever make mention of the film The Land Before Time). Part 1 of I Bleed Toronto Raptor Purple gives insight into the more personal and formative experiences mediated by the play of the Raptors that shaped Aharon's perspective on life. This 3 part series is going to showcase 3 things: 1. The way a personal coming of age story is paralleled with the Raptors rise to Championship glory. 2. How the play of pro sports teams like the Raptors reflect the values and spirit of the city they represent. 3. How the Raptors' reluctance to go full-blown rebuild is characteristic of the city of Toronto's reluctance to rebuild its decaying and bloated (amalgamated) municipal governance scheme - and why global cities, such as Toronto, are a thing of the past.
