1. Yes. Yes.
Reminds me of my Broad Street Bullies. Let's see if Fork will have an opinion. What's with you Bostonians? You fuckers are a violent crew. Too many viewings of 'Good Will Hunting', maybe?

3. I couldn't be more proud!
Just hope the guys don't take their foot off the pedal now because the Habs have had a damn impressive run of their own, but I still think the Flyers at their best are better than Montreal at their best. Guess we'll see, should be a great Conference Finals. GO ORANGE AND BLACK! :woohoo: :applause: :bounce:

5. This is going to be a really tough series.
The Habs have knocked off the President's Trophy winner and the defending Cup champs. Halak is playing out of his mind and Cammalleri is doing his Joe Sakic impersonation. I don't know that the Flyers are any better than the Montreal right now. At their best Halak is the deciding factor. This is an even money series.

14. Only an idiot with lots of money would bet lots of money on this series...
these two teams are both very physical, as well as talented

The matchup is going to be pretty much even, so far as I can tell

4. Yes.
As I said in the other thread, the most epic choke I've seen in all my years of watching sports.

6. Did you forget about the Yankees choke against Boston?
Everyone outside of New York was dancing a jig that day. Trailing in the 9th in the ALCS and down 3-0 in the series they came back and won it all. Best comeback ever. Bar none.

8. It will take its place alongside the epic choke jobs in all New England sports history.
The Ed Armbrister interference call in '75. Bucky F'n Dent. B*ll B*ckn*r. Aaron F'n Boone. The night John Lennon died (and the Patsies blew a playoff spot). And so on, and so on, ad nauseam... :puke:

10. How can you forget 18-1?
Or, as the T-Shirt describes, "18 Wins and One Giant Loss" :rofl:

11. And NBA title, two World Series and three Super Bowls in 10 years.
Worse places to be a sports fan. :)

9. Who cares?
Either San Jose or The Chicago Blackhawks will win the Stanley Cup anyway. Why? Because they are better than either eastern team. Sorry networks and other east coast biased people. It's just a fact.
