Stanley Cup Riots in Vancouver...AGAIN!

As it turns out, the big losers of the Stanley Cup finals weren't the Canucks who actually were rather good about the whole thing.  Sure they lost...but in many ways they won as well.  One game short of the Stanley Cup?  Fuckin' A (Well maybe an A- but still pretty good).   To be honest?   They'll be back and they will learn from what they did right and what they did wrong (or at least I hope so).   Boston deserved the win...they out scored the Canucks 3-1 in 7 games.

The big loser were the parents of the Vancouver teens and 20 somethings who pursued the 'group-think'.   Thousands of young people Rioting in the streets of downtown Vancouver.  Well that's what you get for mating with thugs; Thick, stupid children who have no respect for anything.  Congrats to all you parents who had a kid out there breaking things.  This is for you.


We really showed Boston and the rest of the world how gracious we can be even in defeat (and if you don't get it, ask a friend).  Hopefully each and every one of the people identified by the copious amount of evidence will be presented with a hefty fine for being a complete idiot.  Either that or have a group show up at their place and break their stuff (actually...I kind of like that idea).


Man...I saw the `group-think` going toward downtown.  My wife had the car so I was taking the skytrain into Burnaby going West.  The crowd going toward the stadium was ready to fight.  I don`t think even cheering a victory would have satisfied them.  There was a negative vibe...they were out to tear shit up.   The pictures are courtesy of the Winnipeg Sun http://www.winnipegsun.com/photos
