God, I HATE the Boston Bruins.

[Zavulon]

That is all.

[BarenakedLady]

1. You are DTM

That is all.

[flvegan]

2. Sorry 'bout that.

4-2. Good game. They still aren't out of it.

[Zavulon]

3. Yes they are.

They're down 3-0 now. Does anything about the current state of the Habs remind you of the 1942 Leafs or the 1975 Isles? :cry:

[flvegan]

4. Well, look on the bright side...

You see...okay, I've got nothing.

You took the division last year. That's something.

[Zavulon]

6. This is the Habs' centennial season.

It was supposed to go better than this. :cry:

I appreciate the laugh I got out of your first line, though, thanks.

The most depressing thing is that once the Habs are out, there isn't a remaining single team I can stand. I hate them all. Few things suck like really loving a sport and not having a single team left you can bring yourself to root for.

[Captain Hilts]

5. And we Bruins fans HATE the Habs! nt

[Zavulon]

7. Do all of you Bruins fans opt for the Caps' avatar?

;)

[Captain Hilts]

8. Grew up in New England, now live in DC. Now, mind you, Leafs fans...

are completely delusional. I'm in Toronto a lot.

The Wall St. Journal had an article about how the Leafs are the lamest professional sports franchise. You'll love it!

[Zavulon]

9. PLEASE tell me you have a link.

That article would make up for a lot of the misery I've endured since the start of the playoffs. I struck out on both wsj.com and Google.

You are correct about Leafs fans. I hate the Leafs so much I would root for Boston to sweep them, and that's saying a lot (no offense).

BTW, who the hell will you root for if the Bruins have to square off against the Caps? The Caps made it clear tonight that they're still in their series.

[Captain Hilts]

10. The Caps need love. I'll root for them. Let me see..."Restoring the Pride...

of Canada: After a 42 year championship drought, the Toronto Maple Leafs get some tough love."

WSJ Dec. 12th 2008.

Now, for real fun...check the WSJ's index for '89 and '90 for their FRONT PAGE - in the humor column - articles about the Ballards. Yolanda Ballard, etc. A riot.

[Zavulon]

11. I couldn't find the last thing you mentioned (apparently the WSJ site limits searches to

articles within the last three months), but thanks to your giving me the title of the actual article I was able to find that. Thanks a million for this, I needed some sort of pick-me-up, and any article detailing the failures of the Leafs is as good as a beer. :)

Oh, if the Caps play Boston, I'll root for the Caps as well. I live in the area, too.

Thanks again! :hi:

Edited to point out that I had to find the article through Yahoo (http://online.wsj.com/article/SB122904410177500415.html?mod=yahoo_buzz); the WSJ site wasn't much help at all :(

[Captain Hilts]

12. You are most welcome! Au revoir! nt

[BarenakedLady]

13. ...

Old school.

[SoxFan]

16. Really old school

[MrSlayer]

14. The Habs just don't have enough firepower this time around.

Boston is making a long run this year.

[SoxFan]

15. I'll let Looch do the talking!

:evilgrin:

[flvegan]

17. Bergeron's not too shabby either.

[ProudToBeBlueInRhody]

18. Sorry about that

If it makes you feel any better, I find nothing redeeming about your club either.

[Captain Hilts]

19. Where you at in RI & Providence Plantations? I lived in Newport and have

friends in Wakefield and Pt. Judith.

[ProudToBeBlueInRhody]

21. I live in Tiverton

Closer to the Massachusetts line. Although my brother works down in that area.

[meegbear]

20. Be fair, the Red Sox, Patriots and Celtics have all won championships the past few years ...

it's the B's turn.

[Forkboy]

22. Jesus, you guys slap us silly for decades, then whine when we have one good year.

Greedy bastages! :P

Here, this should make you feel a little better, at least.

[TZ]

23. I've been wondering

Where you were....:rofl:

[Zavulon]

24. That helped, thanks :)

:rofl:

[Forkboy]

25. I aim to please.

:)

[PittPoliSci]

26. don't worry, we'll get 'em for you...

when we're finished killin' the flyers. the east is ours, and it will stay ours.
