This article is hilarious...

Lightning fans force Bruins to remove Bear ads mocking Tampa - Puck Daddy - NHLBlog - Yahoo! Sports

You know, this is pretty pathetic by a certain group of thin skinned Tampa Bay people. Most real fans could care less what the opposing city does or says. I would bet the vast majority of true Lightning fans don't care about some silly billboard. They just cheer for their team. Kind of a picture of our society as a whole. Nobody can take the slightest criticism, even in jest. Hell, where I'm at, we get teased all the time for the Mariners and I don't go crying to Mommy and Daddy.

I think they are hilarious. I would laugh if it was the opposition doing it. Oh well.

Thanks, Sinner.

Jeff, the shuffleboard one is freakin hilarious. How can someone not just laugh at that instead of feeling insulted? Honestly, that's some clever humor.

I think if Tampa fans are tired of seeing and hearing these signs and chants, they should take off their glasses and remove their hearing aids...

WHAT?! YOU'LL HAVE TO SPEAK UP!

Also. I could care less about the ads one way or another. I just wanna watch some hockey.

Damn right Cricket! Except I have to listen...

The funny thing is. Unless I've missed my mark. I think I'm one of the younger posters around here. Go figure.

Some of these people complaining need to go to an EPL game and listen to some of the things chanted at those games...This is tame.

I don't see what the big deal is at all, those are not mean spirited at all in my opinion.
The fans should just speed up their Rascals and move past the ads.

just another example of society becoming increasingly oversensitive to everything

Here's the part that's confusing to me... why did the Bruins take them down? Why do they give a crap if some people in Tampa are upset? They aren't buying their product.

Florida, Where people go to die or get run over by someone that should have died 10 years ago. Now that would be nasty. Lighten up Floridians !!

 

[BlueandWhiteForever]

Well, I can kind of understand them being angry at the first one.

I believe there were death threats. I read that in a seperate article.

The first one looks like it was almost clever enough to be written by a douchebag message board poster.

Does GunsnBeer work for Bruins marketing?
Tampa should respond with a "Jacobs only cares about beer and pretzel sales" poster.
