Good night for Boston fans

When Rob writes WE BEAT LE SCUM 2-1!!!, he isn't talking about the first series against the Yankees.

Lewis Forman went to the game and reports on what it must be like to be a Baltimore fan when the Sox come into town:

... That was a scary 45 minutes before the start of the game. When we walked into the Garden last night, we were surrounded by Canadiens fans. They cheered louder than the Bruins fans did. French became the predominant language around our seats. The few Bruins faithful huddled together like a group of stranded hikers around one small campfire.

I accept the fact that the Bruins are 4th in line when it comes to Boston sports teams. Sometimes I think we're 5th behind the Revolution but that's for a different day. However this is a playoff game for one of our teams. I don't care that the Yankees were in town for game 13 of the season (out of 162...). It was the playoffs and we almost got out cheered by FANS OF THE VISITING TEAM...
