Re: Game day thread April 15, 2017
From: (Anonymous)The main problem is that non-Leafs fans tend to be sick and tired of hearing abou the Leafs by December. Them doing well in the playoffs is basically the worse case scenario for those of us who would really like hockey media to talk about somebody fucking else once in awhile.
They might be a plucky underdog story, but they're the kind of plucky underdog character that viewers want to strangle just to make them shut the fuck up.
Re: Game day thread April 15, 2017
From: (Anonymous)I hope you're not saying the people giving pushback in this thread are Leafs fans? I'm not. I also haven't heard about them that much, tbh - I've seen way more complaining about Leafs fans on deke than I've seen or heard actual Leaf discussion anywhere else. Maybe it depends on what market you're in? And also who you follow on Tumblr, obviously.

From: (Anonymous)I mean, I get it! I agree! I was honestly hoping they'd lose out and just miss the playoffs. No one's obligated to like them just because they're the underdog, I just think it seems a bit much to act like it's so offensive of them to be happy, when if you're a Caps fan, your team is still so much more likely to win the series. Idk it seems un-self aware and mean in a punching-down way to me, but I'm not going to die on a hill about this defending Tumblr's Leafs fans lol.

From: (Anonymous)I had to look up what "bitch eating crackers" meant and nonnie, I'm laughing!!! I mean, obviously an essential part of sports fandom that you have fun irrationally hating the teams you hate, I just didn't think some of the remarks made came off quite like that, but whatever, maybe if I spent more on hockey Tumblr I'd feel the same.
Re: Game day thread April 15, 2017
From: (Anonymous)I'm not a Caps fan. I'm not even a fan of an eastern team.
Re: Game day thread April 15, 2017
From: (Anonymous)It was meant as a general "you," not you specifically, since you marked yourself as a DA responding to my first comment. Sorry that wasn't clearer. I was just responding to your reasoning about your feelings with my own, I wasn't trying to accuse you of any sort of ~bad behavior.
