Phazon 24 Report post Posted April 13, 2010 So i went to phoenix coyotes hfboard since there are not a lot of coyotes forums on the net and the det-pho thread might be the most insulting and unclassy thread i seen. Basically it is a bunch of fans there making jokes of empty joe Louis arena (thats funny coming from coyotes fans), not wanting to live in Michigan and zero respect for Red Wings as a club. Even pens fans showed more respect than that ***** fanbase. Oh well, i hope we sweep them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NvrFrgtRussian5 85 Report post Posted April 13, 2010 (edited) Lets see....The only argument they have is about the city of Detroit.. Like we haven't heard that for the last umpteen years in the playoffs. Who gives a rat? We have the banners in our rafters and they know they can't talk s*** about that so they pick on our city. f*** em, get over it. Just like we got over it when Columbus said it, and Anaheim said it and when Pitts said it.... Edited April 13, 2010 by NvrFrgtRussian5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No big deal. and zero respect for Red Wings as a club. Show me an example because this I can't believe. if they do have fans now (highly unlikely) there all a bunch of bandwagoners. something that can be said about all of the detroit franchises fans is thats they have stuck with their teams no matter what You must not have been a part of any of the GDT's this year .

Firehawk 305 Report post Posted April 13, 2010 (edited) Ahh, the classy and classless arguments are starting already lol. It's their team, they want to support their team and they'll take any cheapshots they can on their opponent. Most of what they say is true sometimes. We do not appear to sell out the Joe (even if all tickets are sold, the full crowd is not there), I don't know what it is about the microphone setup but when I watch a game on FSD it sure sounds like it's silent all game. Even when I go to games on occasion the crowd quiets down for most of the game. Games on CBC sound way more intense. Again, maybe it's a microphone issue. I think maybe we are just used to seeing our teams win and we don't get that loud unless it's a big rivalry game or a ton is on the line or something. And Detroit city is a crap hole if you ask me, and I live here. I avoid going down there other than for Jury Duty or sports games. What I take a little issue with is their totally misconstrued arguments on how their team is on our level. Most of those fans over there seem to think that these teams are evenly matched. Well, I guess if you look at the stats it appears this way. But our core group has won 4 cups and I think the numbers would be much more inflated if most of our starters played all season. Those fans over there conveniently forget about that. We'd probably be in the race for the conference title had we been healthy (who knows for sure though). They also forget that we have been playing low scoring games and winning with clutch goals lately, just like Phoenix plays. So when I see them say that their team will wear us down, that's a little bit silly to me. But again, I'm sure to them I'm the homer, so... Oh one other thing which was laughable is how they think Detroit gets all of the referee calls, when we think we get the short end most of the time since we are often the more talented team and Buttman hates us for being so successful. What I really do like about our fans is that we do not chant "X Team Sucks" or too many derogatory (sp) chants. We get on crosby, but that's a true statement. The chicago fans chanting "Detroit sucks" is a joke. Remember when teams would try to tease the Russian 5 by chanting "USA"? I swear for a minute there it seemed like every time they did that, the Russian 5 scored a goal. haha Edited April 13, 2010 by Firehawk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Considering some of the bile that gets spewed around here I wouldn't get on your high horse so quickly. HA this. I'm surprised there are like 4 or 5 threads at this point basically saying "Ugh, why I've never.... Hmmp!" Is it really so shocking? Let them talk s*** on theirs and we'll talk on ours, its called preaching to the choir. Plus, the whole "classless" thing is getting a bit old, at least with regards to fans. Fans by nature are irrational, hate spewing masses of zealotry, calling others "classless" makes the forum seem like some black tie gala.

NBCnothingbutcrosby 159 Report post Posted April 14, 2010 I gotta say the other fans can pick on the city of Detroit all they want.. Most of us live in the burbs. They can talk trash about our players... they'll prove em' wrong. They can talk s*** about my Wings jersey/Me in an arena and I'll throwdown. But, all the dead wings comments piss me off the most. It's totally irrelevant.. I'm only 21 so I missed basically the whole era, but it gets under my skin the most. We have since then emerged a dynasty and by bringing up our darkest hour they seem to negate all we've accomplished since then. I see it as a total lack of disrespect for Scottie, Stevie Y, Shanny, Igor, Lids and everyone else who helped turn our franchise around. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
