Thanks for the comment, CJ. I certainly wasn't about to let an anonymous commenter color my beliefs too much but I have been spending an awful lot of time at A2Y ;)

Matt's blog has helped me to not paint all Red Wings fans with the same mindset.

I certainly hope the Avalanche wake up and make this at least interesting. The last couple games have probably been fun for Wings fans but there needs to be some adversity to truly enjoy a victory.

Although I'd ultimately prefer them to not enjoy any more victories!

As a true Red Wings fan, I find the comments made by Anonymous offensive. But please don't read his (or hers) and assume we're all so empty-headed. Most of us are sane, intelligent folks truly passionate about our team, as Av's fans are about theirs. There are lots of blogs out there, for any team, that are run by people running at the mouth but with no real information. As a good alternative, I wanted to point you in the direction of Matt's blog, On the Wings, but looks like you know it already. Hoping the Red Wings come out winners, but looking for a good series with Avs.

I'll talk about the Stanley Cup coming home whenever I please. My site, my rules.

"you actually have to win 4 times, but once would be quite an accomplishment for your squad."

That it would, that it would.

Any chance you'll come out of your anonymous shell or is the Internet tough guy persona too much fun for you?

Maybe you should wait until you beat Detroit once this year, just once, before you talk about the "Stanley Cup coming home".

PS you actually have to win 4 times, but once would be quite an accomplishment for your squad.

anonymous, you continue to prove people's points about Wings fans.

I hope that bitterness is working out for you in your life.

Hey Shane:

Enjoy your little circle jerk here, buddy, and go f*** yourself.

Sincerely,
Idiot Wings fans everywhere.

P.S.- Don't cry about missing the playoffs until you've suffered through THIRTY EFFIN YEARS OF IT!!! Then you might have some idea of what people are trying to get thru that thick skull of yours... Toolshed.

P.P.S.- How does a kid from Saskatoon wind up rooting for the Vagalanche, anyway? Did you need a new bandwagon to jump while your western Canadian teams were missing the playoffs all those years?

Thanks, Jib.

I like Matt's blog but his site is down at the moment. Once it's back, I'll be linking to it for sure.

FYI: If you want a sane look at game 2 from a Red Wings fan, go look at " On the Wings" he's written a really good preview.

And good points all around Shane. I see sports fandom as religion. It's an intensely personal thing, that you happen to be able to share with thousands (or in the Thrashers case...hundreds) of people. But everyone worships in their own intensely personal way. There's no "wrong" and no "true". As Tape said... we're all bandwagon fans of some kind.
