[Table 5]

We've now moved onto whining about the whining about the whining. How low can we go?

Lets find out!

I want the Canadiens to win this series just to see how utterly absurd a Finals thread featuring them could get. It seems to be getting more absurd with each passing round so a Finals thread with them would be fun to watch.

10 years ago and a team we play once a year. That "rivalry" died almost as soon as it began for me. Oilers are a rival. Canucks are a rival. Fans can choose to hate who they want though.

No one really said Tampa was a rival, just that we have a reason to hate them.

We're in between games. What else is there to do?

The endless nattering back and forth about the whining is as bad as the whining itself. Can please get get back to talking hockey.

I don't go on Facebook and laugh after every Canucks loss, nor every Oilers loss. I don't do it in the regular season, I don't do it in the playoffs.

You cheer your team, and respond to others being pompass.

The trolls are almost as bad as the over the top Habs fans.

Facebook will be a better place when both are gone.


That said, if you hate the Habs respond to Habs fans being jerks. Don't bombard everyone (bad fans, good fans and everyone else) with you being an a-hole.

That's my big problem, the Habs haters are being a-holes while Habs fans are mostly just being annoying.

No, no it won't. People will go back to posting pictures of their food and talking about their little yard apes like they are the first people to ever give birth. That will be followed by some personal mantra and how they are going to tattoo it somewhere on their body.

Look at meeee!

Facebook will never be a better place

OK. Habs are no good.

Totally off topic, but I miss the good old days of Facebook with pictures of slutty 22 year olds in mini skirts at bars. I also miss the random posts from friends posting "hey loser, get off your ass and let's go to roadhouse and get laid".

Well using your criteria, 1986 ring a bell?

I never suggested there was no reason to hate the Habs. I don't like either of these teams, but lately in these threads, if you're not frothing at the mouth with Hab hatred you're suddenly a fan of them.

This has been an odd post-season.

Oh give me a break. It's been the same old story with you and several other posters who " don't like the Habs" but are continually defending them.

At least the Hab haters are admitting they hate them rather than passive aggressively supporting the Rangers.

I'm curious as to where I have been constantly defending them.

Just because people don't get all worked up over them like you do, doesn't mean you have to whine about it.

You know who you are talking to right?

Of course. I just think it's funny. It's like McCarthyism in a sports arena. If you're not vitriolic and enraged over the Habs, you're a communist.

One more game. One more game.
