Post here if you are down.

Am I down with OPP (Other Peoples Playoffs)? Yeah, you know I'm down with OPP!

 

[Carolinas Identity*]

the undertaker has taken another season

 

[the halleJOKEL]

yeah sure whatever

 

[Havoq]

I'm down - been meaning to change this avatar at some point

 

[NotOpie]

those are dogs barking in the night

 

[Dishface]

I was really hoping I would not see this thread again this year...

Anyways, I'm down.

 

[Navin R Slavin]

nah.

 

[Lucky Lindy]

Yep!

 

[tarheelhockey]

Expected this to be the thread where we get pumped for the Canes' playoff run.

 

[Surrounded By Ahos]

It makes me sad that this is an annual thing. I'm in. I hope I don't get ****ing Pittsburgh again.

I'm not in, since I was useless last year, but I will certainly be posting this in the MB thread once it's created

 

[Wolfpuck]

I'm out, unless it can be rigged so I go to the Sharks, who I will be bandwagoning regardless.

 

[A Star is Burns]

Not for me this year. Just gonna bandwagon the Caps on my own.

 

[GindyDraws]

Eh, screw it.

I'm game. Just don't make me a Blue Jackets fan. For the love of God, anybody but Columbus!

 

[Brock Anton]

looks like i'll finally have to retire the panthers #badnwagon avatar ...

... which for some reason i have never changed

You're not allowed to back out. You are in and will root for whoever drafts you, or I will block you on facebook

Expected this to be the thread where we get pumped for the Canes' playoff run.

I'm almost 34 and the Canes have made the playoffs three times since I was in High School... How are we all not just used to this by now?

 

[Carolinas Identity*]

Eh, screw it.

I'm game. Just don't make me a Blue Jackets fan. For the love of God, anybody but Columbus!

Based on the fact that you apparently live in Indiana, I assume this opinion is deeply rooted in some sort of Big Ten nonsense?

 

[Wolfpuck]

You're not allowed to back out. You are in and will root for whoever drafts you, or I will block you on facebook

I'm a creative guy. I'll find a way to blend the Sharks into my bandwagoning if I don't get them.

Imagine if I get their first round opponent.

Okay, count my ass in.

 

[Breakdowns]

How can you guys cheer for other teams though?

I don`t get the same excitement while watching teams I am not fan of. I like good hockey and I always watch playoffs but I can`t cheer for other team than Canes

That's the joke, son.

this thing is srs business

I enjoy watching the playoffs and I have a really hard time caring about a game where I have no rooting interest. So until the Canes give me something ANYTHING to watch after mid-April, I'll happily take an excuse to care.

But the rules. If the team that has your #badnwagon rights for Round x loses the series to their opponent, who then inherits your #badnwagon rights for the Round x+1,

is there a dead period, a hiatus, an embargo, or blockade in your #badnwagoning actions at the time when your rights get transferred? Do you belong to the other team immediately after the ending whistle of the last game of the series, and can you and are you expected to go naner-naner from that moment at your former fellow fans;

or do your rights transfer maybe only after 24 hours are past from the ending whistle, or 24 hours before the announced starting whistle of Round x+1, so that you must fester in the devastating loss for a time being?

And are there special considerations for the Stanley Cup Finals, in other words do every hfcane get to win in the end, and is that the whole point in this all, or is the expected outcome rather that there are 16 hfcanes who can be mocked by the other 16 hfcanes?

Because I can do the we are heroes all -approach, but I also believe that there is no escape from the pain of losing and any set of rules promoting that are anti-stickpuck.

Or is this a fully open matter to be taken into consideration by the drafting team, because you drafting a lewd ****er can be a good tactic, but it carries the risk of being lewdly ****ed in case of elimination, which adds excitement to the whole deal?

 

[the halleJOKEL]

hmmm

that is more thought than i have put into probably 97% of things in my life
