2016 Playoff Thread

2nd teams, hands down. Jonas' timing is a bit suspect but allegedly he jumped to the Hawks before they were good. It would be like someone defecting from the Leafs now and becoming an Oilers fan. All signs point to them being good shortly, they're just not yet.

and that's plenty gay, but having a 2nd team is the worst. I get flipping allegiances, it's not something I'll ever do, but I get it. Having a 2nd team that you actively cheer for? No, just no.

I might have a couple of teams other than the Leafs where I have a passive rooting interest or I might smile when they do well, but that's the extent of that level of involvement.

I would never get pissy on the message board of a third party club because they didn't like my secondary team. That's uber gay.

i mostly "cheer" against teams

now that the kings, rangers, hawks, bruins are out i am lost
 
I supported the team my friend played for except when he was in ottawa but now that he is out of the league i mainly just hope my fantasy players do well. With the Leafs out and the amount of other sports available I simply haven't watched much hockey.

** I watched last night just to keep up with what @soloucity was tweeting... guy is hilarious
 
You guys are silly.

I was a hockey fan before I became a Habs fan. Coming from a family of immigrants hockey was not on my house. I started watching after Nagano when I saw the Canadian National team play.

So my love of hockey comes before any particular love of a nhl franchise. Why settle down when you can have threesomes all the time because you love women?

It's not so that much people around here are badmouthing the Predators as that they are completely and utterly irrelevant that they inspire insipid indifference. In the NHL the only other franchise that really gives them a run for their money as far as being pointless and remarkably forgettable is Columbus.

Arizona, florida (who had empty seats at a playoff game) and I would toss in Carolina for good measure.
 
We're all from immigrant households in some way or another in Canada. But if, hypothetically, I up and immigrated to the United Kingdom and I was discussing Manchester United football on a Chelsea forum and some of the Blues fans said that they didn't think that Aston Villa was very good, why get pissed off about that? It makes no sense. It's the same thing here.

gay must have a negative connotation for you, that's the 3 time you've used in in an hour.

OK, I'm gay. Big deal. Happy now?

We have a word for this. It's called "casual" sex. Just like someone with a 2nd team is a casual fan.

To be fair Aston Villa isn't very good.

You're a casual fan, we get it, it's cool.

Following the prospects of two clubs, engaging with the fanbases of two clubs on two different forums, trying to follow all the games and highlights of two clubs, the ins and outs of two organizations in other words, doing about double the work of a typical fan married to their one team is a casual fan?

Cool. I'm a casual fan. I'm also gay. Labels don't matter people.
