Yeah, I GOT bragging rights!

Thats right, I was awarded Bragging Rights from Cath. I'm sharing them with Dr.J over at R.E.S.E.A.C.H.E.R.S, who was commenting about those smug tories.
Like any true hockey fan that lives outside of Toronto, I despise the Toronto Maple Leafs. The only way I would ever ever cheer for them, is if they were the only Canadian team left in the playoffs. Even that would be hard. But just so y'all know, I wasn't hating on Chall for loving the leafs. I can't blame someone for loving the leafs anymore than I could hate on someone for being a conservative. I don't necessarily get you for choosing to be conservative, but I wouldn't hate you. It was that she slammed my beloved Detroit Red Wings. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE LOVE LOVE don't ever jump off the bandwagon no matter how much they annoy the crap out me LOVE my home team. I just also LOVE Brendon Shanahan and Steve Y.
Apparently her dig at the wings was a misunderstanding, and I think we're friend now. Or am I wrong Chall?

I'm glad this is catching on!

My husband hates the Leafs too. His main reason is the amount of support they have in Vancouver - he objects to going to a Canucks home game and almost being outnumbered by fans in Toronto jerseys! Same for Montreal...

I really hate the leafs.. .

But the Red Wings? I'm sorry, but we have to throw you out of Cananda now. .. .

Only bad American beer for you and may a beaver come and eat your house!

Go Oilers!

Nah, not wrong. We are fine me thinks ;) The Wings are a good team with the lovely swedes skating like crazy. Still in my heart (and closet) , the red shirt with wings.

I am still a bit confused about it all (leafs... sundin...), lost teenage love and all. Was it all a dream? Maybe?

But what I do know, is that the Canadians... who happens to be the Team of the other person ... is not my fan base. It can not be. And next time its Leafs vs Canadians - well, I am not at home for that game ^^ safer for all.... so, anyone want to provide a bed for a girl up six times during this year?? :)


ps. you are a better person than I if you can love all conservative people. I will try, but so far no luck.
