Well we all secretly want to live in Scarborough but alas cannot afford it.

Sure, they cheer when there is a goal, but doesn't everyone? My point was MLG and the ACC haven't been known as the loudest arenas either so a Leafs fan criticizing Sens fans for being pussy is kinda strange. Not that they're not, but I mean, a pussy calling someone else a pussy isn't really fair, is it?

Well what did you expect him to say? "Yes, that was a hit from behind"? It was not a proud moment but what can ya do? Dwelling on it just seems kinda, I dunno, pathetic. If the Sens woulda went on to win the series, then sure, you can bitch and moan about 'til the cows come home, but they didn't. The Leafs spanked them and all was right in the world was it not?

They never really booed him before the stick throwing incident. At least not with this kind of anger.

Anyway, I just think think it's silly to boo someone because of something two years ago, that didn't end up meaning a thing, and a dumb, poorly timed joke. Just boo him because he's a great player for your rival. But please stop doing it in our building. It makes me sad.

Haha nah. I'm a hockey fan before I'm a Sens fan.
