i'll even admit this one was BAD

he seriously refuses to ever go again. so unless i go by myself i probably won't be going to any either.

why can't people just have a good time and be normal?

I picture you saying this, teary eyed, and red cheeked, pounding your fist on your table.

I agree. I have no problem with the way the Devils won thier cups... Good for the team and the Players... and I wont even say shame on the Fans... But Shame on the area for not embracing thier team, even in good times... I would hate to see what would happen if the Devils sucked for like 3-4 years in a row...

I'm sure your a great fan... but New Jersey does not deserve a team like the Devils... If they cant get more then 30k people to show up for a Stanley Cup Parade... There are many more places that deserve a franchise...

maybe 30k was the max capacity allowed for the parking lot

One moron I used to follow on twitter open wished for Bryz to get injured last month. After the Toronto game, someone retweeted him saying "Bryz is a monster. He's awesome. Finally we have a Goalie".

So now your saying the Devils have a better fan base? Or are you just insulting me? I really dont care what you think... When you have a team that wins, and you can't get any support... its complete BS... Its insulting to the players, the team owners, and the entire NHL. I can understand why the Islanders cant fill a 50 year old arena with a team that hasnt made the playoffs but once in 15 years or whatever... But seriously... Your going to defend the Devil's lack of fans... Sure the few guys that are devils fans are good fans...I'm sure... But everyone else in that area could give 2 craps... Maybe they should higher the Jersey Shore cast and the Jerseylicious cast to come to games and get the GTL crowd to stop in....
- RooNosHockey


I thought it was pretty clear that I was insulting you.

The Devils don't have a ton of fans, we all know. What doesn't makes sense (among the numerous nonsensical things you've already said) is why you would be poop-talking to the fans that they do have, as if it's their fault? Or even the team's fault?

Cetainly, the Devils have some dedicated, and faithful fans, regardless of how man of them there are. They most certainly deserve the team and the Cups they have won. What about if you were one of those faithful Devil fans? How would you feel about your statement?
- MJL


I see your point... When I was saying fans, I meant the people that live in the area that is meant to support the team... I didn't mean the 5-10k real fans they have... I'm sure they are great...

feel free to pm this twitter account to me so I can make sure I don't follow said moron. Thanks

Edit: just for the record I been on Bryz's side since opening night in Boston. He made a great save on Marchand which was a "momentum" save I kept hearing people say he never made till last week. But that's for another day

also of note: the jersey fans have added pauly D's "hey buddy" to their repertoire
- Don'tForgetTocchet


That would bug me except I have no idea who Pauly D is and the Flyers still use that awful "How You Doin'" to open games

I thought this wasn't allowed here....

I'm not "poop-talking" anyone. I was teasing when devils fans came in there gloating and talking trash on Bill.... But the direction of the conversation changed... I'm talking about New Jersey and why the Devils team deserves a better fan base (not including the one it already has)....

It's something ridiculous, I didn't even remember the name at first, but when I looked at the past history of tweets, there it was.

You're right. We're only allowed to insult entire fan bases, not individual posters.

Well, if you want to get technical calling somebody a front runner and that you see "Cowboy Blue" all over them is an insult as well.

Bill is a big boy. If he had an issue with my observation he is more than capable of responding. I was respectful. I just pointed out that NJ could play with 6 forwards on the ice for 60 minutes, with no goalie, and still be accused of being "boring." No gloatage whatsoever.

Bill called me, with tears in his eyes...he said he was hurt Wayne, and he wasn't going to finish playing Words with Friends with you on facebook.

Laugh that off, funnyman!
