Sometimes people who run websites make little harmless mistakes. But sometimes elected officials perceive these mistakes as slights against their city. 

On Tuesday morning, CBSSports.com had a poll asking fans who they think will win the NBA Finals. There were four options, which makes sense because there are four teams left in the playoffs. But wait a second, where are the Raptors?

It’s pretty logical to think that the poll was simply a couple days old, from before the Raptors beat the Heat in Game 7. Maybe someone can tell that to Toronto mayor John Tory.

Tory decided to write a letter saying how not-mad he is about the whole thing, thereby revealing himself to be actually pretty mad.

As Mayor of "Other" I felt the need to talk to @CBSSports about their poll. #WetheOther pic.twitter.com/CYRqOljXHc

The Raptors are going to get swept, anyway.
