Boston Fans Know The Truth About Montreal

Technically, a post covering sports doesn’t fall under the auspices of this blog, but since Montreal is full of bunch left-wing, French-speaking surrender monkeys, we’ll file it under “close enough”. What the hell, it's Sunday.

The Montreal Canadians’ fans at the Molson Center have repeatedly been called “the most knowledgeable hockey fans in the world”. As a life-long Bruins’ fan, I know that this statement is about accurate as the old wives’ tale that the Democrat Party is the party of the working class. After watching today’s game (in between bouts of puking from the dizzy spells caused by the Montreal throwback jerseys), I did some research and found the official Guide to Being a Montreal Canadians’ Fan.

1. If a Montreal player falls down on his own, boo and demand a penalty be assessed against the nearest opposing player.
2. If an opposing player comes within three feet of a Montreal player, boo and demand a penalty be assessed against the opposing player.
3. If an opposing player brushes up against a Montreal player, boo and demand a five-minute major penalty be assessed against the opposing player.
4. If a Montreal player stubs his toe heading into the locker room, boo and demand that the nearest opposing player be given a game misconduct.
5. If a Montreal player sprains his angle boarding the team plane, boo and demand that the nearest opposing player be ejected, suspended for 10 games, and forfeit the life of his first born son.
6. If Montreal loses, riot in the streets, burn an American flag, and boo the nearest American 12-year old and under youth hockey team.
7. If a Montreal player trips, boards, cross-checks, slashes, elbows or high-sticks an opposing player in the face, cheer lustily – unless the Montreal player is whistled for a penalty; then boo.
8. If a Montreal player elbows in the face, sucker punches, or cracks an opposing player over the head with their stick, cheer lustily, and give him a standing ovation – unless the Montreal player is whistled for a penalty; then boo.
9. If a Montreal player shoots, stabs or hits an opposing player with a baseball bat, cheer lustily, give him a standing ovation, and break out into a round of that God-forsaken Ole Ole song.
10. If Montreal wins, riot in the streets, burn an American flag, and boo the nearest American 12-year old and under youth hockey team.
    

Maybe some Superbowl comments later.

On that big catch by Holmes to get the Steelers down to the seven yard line, did anyone see the Steeler's offensive lineman with two fists full of the jersey of a Cardinal defensive lineman?
