There are a lot of things in this thread which make my head hurt. Rose coloured classes are very thick on some posters.

I don't even know how I'd structure the issues I have. However there is one thing I just can't let go.

How in the bloody hell can someone say the Montreal Canadiens fans are a bunch of bandwagon jumpers?

The team is winning the city is buzzing, the team is losing you still can't get tickets with a rocking Bell Centre.

How many sports teams have university courses analyzing their fandom? http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/story/?id=263480

Or have books written breaking down how the fandom of the team parallels a relgious fanaticism?

If the Montreal Canadiens fans are a bunch of bandwagon jumpers, holy sweet moses this board is full of fair weather, poser, pretend sports fan wannabes for the Calgary Flames.
