Nearly half the crowd in Montreal...man your smokin something! :rolleyes: I hope your judgement is better when you fly

How many Habs fans show up at the ACC when they are in town??

What makes me laugh, is the fact that you accept the fact that leaf's management sucks. Yet you still support this team????
If I were the owner, I would be counting my cash. These fools, so called fans, will pay the cash no matter what. No need for good team, will still cash in.

In MTL, we demand to watch good hockey & have good teams. 21,2173...sell out crowd every game for the past three years.
Actually the first pre-season game was a sell out. 21,273.....can you say the same for Torona??

Tis you who's smoking crack F, D and H... half the crowd... seriously. This is an obvious hallucination you've had. Maybe it's not crack and you've been dropping acid.

Calgary is pure red every damn game... the whole crowd looks like it's on fire. It's definitely not half blue. Like I said, the only arena where this happens is Ottawa and that's because they have shit attendance and the tickets are still for sale. Then they get whacked by Ottawa and Toronto fans still show up and cheer them on.

And yes, I've seen Pogge play... definitely not someone to get too excited about.

On another note, nice come back on the pic... sneaky bastard.

I'll give you credit I guess... you have no problem defending what has been one of the shittiest teams in the league for years now.

I'm predicting a 6-2 or better record for the Habs against them this year. GO HABS!!!
Leafs fans are BRRRRUUUUUUUUTTTAL!!!! and so is the team...

You guys just keep bringing up the same points. There's nothing there worth me arguing about. It's all "me said she said".

If you come up with anything else let me know, until then go Leafs go. Poetic ain't it? :smt079

Oh sorry there was one by Iceman...

A. The only reason that you sold out the pre-season game was because you came in first place last year...again fair weather.

B. No we don't get 21,000+ people in the ACC...it's capacity is only 18,819, last years average attendance 19,434. You guys don't get 600+ people a game willing to stand do you?

Absolutly...if the capacity was 25,000. Every game would still be a sell out....last year's pre season attendances were all 21,2173.

You just can't win this.....you have absolutly no leverage. It's like comparing the Yankess to the royals...you just can't!
The Leafs haven't won a cup since 67. Before we landed on the moon...the beginning of the vietname war.

You just have to accept that the Habs organization, team & fan base, is a level higher then the leafs.

The habs are the the Amabssadors of Hockey...the flagship team. Can you honestly give me one solid point that can disprove it?

You misread what I posted...I asked you if you guys get 600+ a game in your standing room.

Not once did I say that they Leafs were a better orginization...but it's our orginization and we stick by them. Like I stated in an earlier post a good parent sticks by thier child when they go through hard times, support them in parent/teacher interviews, cop shops and the likes...suport them whether they are an asshole, fat or stupid not unlike our orginization over the last 40 years.

We have better fans...I think that that is what we were arguing about in the first place right? Again I can't wait for a couple of years from now when you guys suck again and the fans disapear and we don't have to listen to the shit spewed from your traps for a while.

When the Leafs win, we say "Go Leafs Go"...when the Habs or Sens win, they shout "Leafs Suck" are you guys really that self concious? Just look at the title of this thread. If we were in first place, we'd be celebrating our sucess not poking fun of other people.

Do you get into fights at your kids hockey game? That's right I thought I recognized you.

Go start another fucking riot crybabies

I already gave you credit for sticking by your team. However, you say you have better fans and brag about attendance records at the ACC. Then you say the real fans don't go to the games. Well, where are the real fans? Are you one? or do you attend games, in which case that just makes you another dipshit Leaf fan? Contradictory I think...

Furthermore, if I had a fat, stupid asshole of a kid whom I also had to deal with the police over I wouldn't stand idly by and say "Please don't steal again" or "I hope all that McDonald's and ice cream is to your liking sweetheart". No I would tell him/her that they are getting fat and start doing some excercise. And also, if you make me come to that police station again, I'll whoop your ass. All this undeserved support over the years has turned the Leafs into the fat kid who's always in trouble with the law, but keeps going down the same path because nobody does anything about it. It starts with the parents, just like it starts with the fans. Every team would be nothing without their fans... they can make things happen if they want to. You may be loyal fans, but you sure are stupid as well.

Also, we don't say Leafs suck... we sing Ole, ole, ole, ole and boo your asses right out of the building. It's just the way... we're not self-conscious... it's called a rivalry.... ass!! It's fun to bitch about the Leafs.

And you're gonna have to wait for more than a couple years for our current team to dwindle... of course that's not going to happen because we'll take on new, young players and work with the team, not pick up and dwell on dinosaurs and hope they can take us from 12th place to the cup. It hasn't worked for fourty years, it's not gonna.

Hey let me ask you guys something.
Have any of you been to the flames or oilers games when the leafs go there to visit?
If you havent, then you can't say that there arent a lot of leaf fans there cause I've been there. Every time I go, the GO LEAFS GO chants :prayer: are louder than the other chants. and the saddledome is only loud in the pregame presentation.

And another note, I am tired of hearing hab fans crying about how the leafs get too much attention and they dont from the media.
How about you guys stop making such stupid issues such as criticizing cancer survivor koivu for not being able to speak fluent french in Canada. I can't believe that lawyer almost sued the captain over that.

We don't have a standing room....our organization is to classy to let fans stand.

You say your proud to be a Leafs fan no matter?? That's why Habs fans are better fans. They demand success & are passionate about the game.

Look at the fan base across the world for great teams. Are they passive or active towards their club's success?

Proud to be a Leaf's fan...more like proud to be a loser.

Never said there weren't fans there, I said it wasn't half Leafs fans... that's just ridiculous bullshit.

And by the way, I would say the Habs media attention was huge last year. But I will also say that yes, the Leafs get far too much attention. They suck!!! and everyone is still talking about them... why? Only time an American team gets attention is when they're doing well and the media coverage settles for Canadian teams, but every time sports is on the news in Canada, they still manage to waste precious minutes talking about the shitty Leafs and how shitty they're gonna be in the future and how shitty they were in the past. Play that trash on Leafs TV, but please, spare the rest of us from all the bullshit.

The reason why the Leafs get by far the most media attention over all other teams is because, there is far more leaf fans than any other team. It's simple. Then we get people like habs fans who can only wish they were Canada's team, no matter how hard they try :lol:

Your arguments are baseless, and you try to start something because of your jealousy.
Leafs are Canada's team
Go Leafs Go :prayer:

Of all the games I've seen on foreign channels I have never seen the habs play.
I've seen Leafs games aired for China, Italy, India, UK, US, Canada of course, Argentina, Sweden, Denmark, Russia, and Germany :prayer:

I've never seen any montreal scabs games played on tv, other than in Canada.
I think you mean that the scabs are quebecs team :mrgreen:
