move to cleveland --- no parades there.

[Ace_of_Spades]

I'd be pretty sad too if my keyboard was Caps Locked permanently.

[Grits n' Gravy]

How much in taxes could your really pay to the city off your shitty little minimum wage job? Quit whining and let the B's that haven't already, run through the mrs.

[ChuckyTheGoat]

BTJ, you SOB. Did you ever get one of those do-nothing Govt jobs?

[ngates815]

Only one thing to be happy about is that there will be a parade full of white people being celebrated by other white folks.

[WeinketoWarrick]

good thing your wife will pay those taxes for you

[jjgold]

Good win for City but most people do not really care about hockey in usa

Glad they won though

[wal66]

I try to never support ol' Beener here but this time he has a point. I may not care about his personal situation the commentary does go to show that our civic leaders don't really have our best interest at heart regardless of how sympathetic they claim to be. With the economy in the tank celebrations such as this while no doubt worthy of celebration shouldn't be financed out of tax payees pockets without consideration.

[cant call it]

You should probably become a cop then jim.

[Nicky Santoro]

beantown, don't say hockey is not popular in boston. i heard bruins are way bigger than celtics there. i've always wondered why in 11 yrs, the only reference you ever made to hockey was your tagline, which i loved.. JESUS SAVES, ESPOSITO SCORES ON THE REBOUND. How can you not like hockey? you grew up as a kid watching esposito, orr, etc..don't say no one cares about hockey in boston, there was a poll last yr saying who is most popular athlete in boston.. 5- manny, 4- bird, 3- ted williams, 2- Brady, 1- bobby orr.that's how much hockey is huge in boston.. i am so happy boston won, i did not want vancouver to win. this boston win is great for hockey.. i am predicting the biggest turnout for a parade in hockey history. i say over 2 million fans, or close to it.

check out this bar celebration, UNREAL.. the whole city is going nuts. this is how a bar looks like in montreal when habs win the cup, if not, even better.. i am proud of boston.. i am so happy luongo lost.. check this out.

[JerseyLove]

I hate hockey to it sucks

[zert]

Move. That will help solve your problem about paying the taxes.

[soxwin]

boston was a hockey town at one time. Jeremy Jacobs bought the team and there went the Bruins popularity in this town.

Until this playoff run, the Bruins were as popular as the revolution here. They had to put a "hockey minute" into the drive time show just to have ANY nhl talk on the show.

There is a very small but hardcore hockey fan base of about 7500-10000 fans in boston who will watch them no matter good or bad.

The rest of all these fans in the bars are either college kids from other towns or bandwagon jumpers who just want to root for anything good. If a kid from Boston was in the final of "American Idol" it would be the same here.

Right now here is the true order of sports teams in this town by fan base
Redsox
Patriots
these 2 teams are far and away the most popular sports in Boston now. Wasn't always the case but now these are the 2 teams Boston lives and dies with
________________
Celtics - Once football season ends the Celtics are all the buzz - We bleed green from the day the SB is over till the playoffs end.
____________________
Nascar - The growing popularity of NASCAR here in Mass is astounding. Most NASCAR fans are also Bruins fans
Bruins - Only popular during the playoffs because of long time cup drought. Once parade is over, won't be mentioned again till next May
Revolution - The sport nobody wants to admit they go to. Revs have been near the top of MLS attendance since inception
__________________________________
college sports sadly don't even register a pulse unless BC is ranked #1 in the polls in football of in the elite 8 in hoops.

If all had their championship on at the same time & all had Boston ties this would be the order they would be watched. This right now in 2011. in 1970 or 1986 it would be different but now this is the landscape here

sox(40%)
pats(33%)
celts(16%)
Bruins(8%)
NASCAR,BC,Revs(1% each)

[soxwin]

Marc Cuban paid for the Parade in Dallas. Hopefully that starts a trend.. Unlikely but hopefully

[Nicky Santoro]

thanks for the post, sox. i think the only reason celtics are bigger than bruins is because bruins never won a thing,until now. what if celtics have now 6 straight losing seasons and bruins win 3 cups in the next 6 yrs.. don't you think they'll surpass celtics by a long shot? you're probably too young, but wasn't bruins #1 in early 70's in boston when they had esposito, orr and were winning cups? i know boston is a huge hockey town, am i right? they just needed a winner, and now they got one.

[Deuce]

Original six, Nicky. Nicky, I bet you're happy that Toronto is the last to win a cup in the original six, Nicky. Nicky, Montreal's farm club almost beat, Boston, Nicky.

deuce, you seem to be the only american that understands hockey here at sbr.deuce, you know what? i remember mtl up 3-1 late in game 4 in 1st round vs bos, and about to be up 3-1 in series, and it's just about over for boston...and i remember the camera on claude julien and he looked devastated. i swear i thought he was about to cry on nat'l tv. he knew if they lost, he was fired... we all knew it. then carey price gives the puck away and then a late goal, then another one and we lose, series now 2-2. and then we lose series. had we been up 3-1, boston don't win the cup and maybe it's the habs instead. we lost so many in OT to them. we totally outplayed boston in each game. it was over for boston as we won first 2 in boston and then came home. boston was gone..imagine that, now they win the cup. and julien now instead of being fired, will get a huge contract..i don't think he ever dreamt of being in this position 1.5 months ago...that's why you gotta love sports.

The biggest union guy around knocking another union? It's only good when it goes in your pocket eh, Beaner? You wanna save taxes in Boston? How about knocking 30% off the steel workers union hourly wage or the pipefitters or all those rackets that make the governement and private industry pay $50-$90/hour for jobs that they should be paying half that.

Let them have the parade for the Bruins and then throw another one when the unions get run out of Boston.

Nicky,

If it were 1970 you would be right. Hockey was #1 here. Sox had 1967 but no one cared, Celts 10 titles but fans never got behind a Russell led team, Pats in their infancy. Hockey was the sport no doubt.

right now the population and culture of the people of Boston has changed and the Bruins would have to be perennial contenders to catch up to the other 3. No one grew up on NHL here and most of the transplants love football and hoops. I am actually still amazed sox are more popular than the Pats.

Celts and Bruins are similar in that they both have about 10k die hards who bleed their teams and go even when their teams are in the dumps. NBA attracts the bandwagon jumpers more easily than the NHL does.

[BEANTOWNJIM]

SWINGING JOHNSON WE HAVE 40% OF OOUR UNION LOCAL 7 IRONWORKERS OUT OF WORK.IN MY UNION IF YOU DONT WORK YOU DONT GET PAID AND YOU CAN GET LAID OFF AT ANY TIME.THE COPS NEVER GET LAID OFF AND THEY STAND AROUND FOR 8 HOURS DOING NOTHING FOR 70 DOLLARS AN HOUR OVERTIME.ITS A CORRUPT RACKET THEY SHOULD HAVE FLAG MAN BUT OF COURSE THE BOSTON POLICE UNION FIGHTS IT IF ITS EVER MENTIONED.

BOYS WHEN YOU SEE THE HIGHLIGHTS OF THIS PARADE ON SATURDAY MORNING JUST LOOK AROUND AT THE COPS AND WATCH THEM SITTING AROUND TALKING ON THERE CELL PHONES POLICE BUSINESS WHILE BEING PAID 70 DOLLARS AN HOUR AND JUST THINK OF YOUR OLD PAL BEANTOWNJIMS TAXES GOING UP 10%

JESUS SAVES AND ESPOSITO SCORES ON THE REBOUND

HEY NICKY JACK KIRRANE ISNT DOING WELL BUT HE TOLD ME HE COULD STILL KICK HARRY SINDENS ARSE

[stogies]

go talk to your mayor beantown jim cause no body here cares or can do a thing about it.

[Brock Landers]

BeanTown Jim may be the most entertaining poster here!

[unusialsusp5]

have to agree with beantown jim except for worrying about the cops overtime pay..i don't understand what is so important about winning a title to a fan. they don't cash in on it..it's just mass hysteria..i guarantee all these front running fans probably watched about half a periord of maybe 5 games all year during the regular season..yes, they won and that's ok but who really cares outside of bruins employees. it is far more important to cash a winning bet on any game than for your home town team to win a dumbass championship again and again...
