If Canadiens Fans Were A Race, I'd Be A Racist

I had to post the picture at left of Marc Savard scoring the winning goal in Game 3 of the Bruins-Habs series, because I couldn't enjoy it enough. I'll remember this image, as well as the image of idiot Montreal fans leaving the building quickly, for quite some time. And I'll have to, since it will most likely be a while before the Bruins beat them again.

I was trying to explain to a non-hockey fan today how much I hate the Canadiens and their fans, and even just saying I hated them more than I hate the Yankees and their fans wasn't sufficient enough to explain it. And then after work, I finally figured it out: If Canadiens fans were a race, I would be a complete, unabashed racist whenever I met a moron wearing a flag with their despicable logo. I would proudly discriminate against them all. I would immediately assume that the color of their jersey meant they had an inferior intellect. I would stereotype them all as effeminate, Eurotrash-wannabe, entitled douchebags, when maybe only 95% of their fans actually are these things.

So, I'll be unhappy if the Canadiens close out their series with the Bruins tonight, but I won't be disappointed in the Bruins' effort, nor disappointed because the Bruins aren't moving on (they weren't title contenders), but just disappointed that a team full of preening floppers (and, as always, a nasty goalie) with moronic, undeserving fans is the one moving on.
