Dopey #2 thank you for another great opinion.
You said that as if you're looking in a mirror.
all I have is a few leafs jerseys, a few leafs flags and a cujo mcfarland figure
Seriously though i'm a little worried about the state of the Canadiens in Montreal.
10 years ago we got a great marketing push and it became "cool" again to like the Habs, the number of jerseys and t-shirts you would see just walking around was off the chart, and during the playoffs EVERYONE had the little flag thing on their cars
I have seen exactly 0 flags so far this year, and 1 jersey yesterday coming home from work. My dad told me he was at La Cage au Sport (popular sports restaurant) and it was half empty... You had to be there HOURS in advance for a regular season game back then.
might be a little anecdotal and I might be wrong, but I feel like there's 5% hype and 95% old farts "yeah but back in the 70s" cynicism

I've selected Jacoby as the guy the Jays need to sacrifice to the beisbol deities. Jays batters were k machines last year, and they're k machines again this year. Something is off. <cough>MartinSmoakGoinsBarneyarentgoinganywhere<cough>
Dude I was at Habs/Bruins Game 3 in 2014 and there were jerseys everywhere, thousands of people outside the Bell Centre, and La Cage was lined up down the street. Amazing atmosphere all day long, even well before the game. After the game (they won), people were chanting everywhere, cars honking horns, flags waving, etc. It was insane. I'm sure that hasn't died in 3 years.
La Cage au Sport heh. I remember being in Boucherville years and years ago having beer and wieners in batter and they were playing an old Habs / Nordiques game replay. A french guy says to me "you know...dis game isn't happening right now..dis is a replay!" and I'm thinking "no shit buddy"...lol. Funny enough, everyone in the place was cheering on the Habs goals as if the game was actually happening.
That house is in the paper:

Things will pick up if they beat New York...and ''yeah but back in the 70's''...dude,you cant argue with a team that lost 8 games all season...8 fucking games...this will probably never happen again ever lol
Swear on ye mum ill bash yer head in
Wait, you cant turn right at a red in Montreal? How unsurprisingly European.
Also, I've had to drive through Richmond in the snow. I've seen some shit.
Did they use to put them on horse carriages?

Do you people still use rotary phones too?
we just really love useless traffic
I saw a drop in my car's mileage after I put my car flag on
Worth it to support the Sens though
I got a Mazda6 bitch.

You'll ruin the trim!

Carey Price can't score goals while tending the net.
It'll be 1-0 Leafs with under 5 minutes to go in the 3rd before the Caps score 8 though.
My mazda3 rusted up like a bitch, got rid of it 3 years ago.
Stick shift hatchback is still one of the funnest cars I have driven in a while, except for maybe the Fiesta ST.

I need a newer car.
The one I drive is from 1999. I don't have a car from this century.

God I wish you could still buy a stick shift truck.
I think Babcock's a bit slow on the uptake here. Given that 4 road teams won last night, I think the law of averages probably means more home teams will win tonight.
I could outdrive imbask and his go-kart any day.
If I ever buy a car again its going to be stick shift. Thats the only way to drive.

And this is the reason we won't be seeing Line on GAF for a few days.

That's a rather tame reason to ban someone around here considering what else goes on.
