That's my theory in a nutshell. Do you really hate someone because they happen to cheer for the team that is geographically the closest to them? (How most people choose thier sports team).
I've travelled to see my junior team on the road, I'd encounted idiots in rinks, but for hte most part people are civil. I think it might have something to do with the fact that if you make fun of my team, and what you say is actually funny, I laugh. Or if I do trash a player, I'll always end the conversation with "in fairness, I really like player X. Skates well, makes a good first pass, etc"
I've got friends that are Oilers fans, Canucks fans, and the dreaded Habs and Leafs fans. Give credit where credit's due, and don't hate someone because of their sports team, don't damage their property because they like a different team than you. Seriously, how childish, idiotic, and stupid is that?
