Thoughts on sportsmanship...



Now this video is from last year, but the same thing happened again on Monday. It appalls me that hockey fans can be so classless. Now, I went to Ferris, and we had some cheers that got banned from the games by the school, but we never went so low as to boo another countries national anthem. That is as low as sportsmanship can go.

And I'm sorry, but the Canadiens as a team should be fined by the NHL for not being able to control their fans. In youth hockey, it's all about sportsmanship, to the point that if you (the coach) can't control your fans, then you get kicked out of the game. In Detroit, if you get caught throwing an octopus onto the ice, or even trying to sneak one into Joe Louis Arena, then you are arrested.

Show some respect Canada.
