You mean the crowd that swore and punched at our mascot? Classy bunch.

Don't worry about the trolls LC, once the summer camps open he 'll be back to work.

Interersting how some fans from the Centennials, oh sorry, Brampton, oh sorry North Bay have a couple of good years and now think they are the flavour of the day.

Not to worry though they will be back where they belong soon enough, fighting for last in the division. Maybe as ealry as next year.

So let them rant, hoot and holler after all it has been quite a while since they have had anything to cheer about, and after this year it may be quite a while again.

Kind of surprise Barrie had a small crowd on Sunday but it was not their regular day they seem to play most of their home games Thursday and Saturday but last night in North Bay was not packed either close to 500 below capacity was that a Tuesday factor the Dogs game and London had soldout crowds .

That whole "classy fan" term is getting thrown around way too much. There are jerks in every fan base. Sorry youre too blind to see that.

As for that mascot punch thing...i call BS. No one has heard no reports filed. There is no pics. Just one guy saying it happened. I could just as easily say...What about that Barrie fan behind our bench threatening the coach and players.

Give your heads a shake if you think there are no bad apples amongst your crowd. ;)

If you actually cheered for your team and not just when they score, you would realize that motivates and pumps up your players. Your own announcers were even joking saying your arena is nicknamed "The Library." Thats pretty sad guys.

I doubt we'll ever be fighting for last in the division. But you guys can keep hoping. :laugh::laugh::laugh:

History is an interesting thing seems to have a way of repeating ITSELF - ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU DON'T CHANGE THINGS. Oh wait a minute isn't that the definition of something, expecting a different outcome but doing the same thing over and over. HMMMM??

Same city, coach, staff, arena, sweaters, name etc.

Why would you be throwing it in North Bay fans faces about empty seats at Battalion games when that was happening in a different city?

Also since when have the Battalion ever been fighting for last in their own division?
17 years and they've finished 5th in their division twice, and those were years 1 and 4.

Had to laugh when Blandisi dived and the guys in the corner all held up their 9.5 and 10.0 scoring cards.

Regarding the attendance, I'm guessing it was in response to the Battalion fan saying that because they showed up to Barrie it helped keep our team afloat. While they don't realize the colts have been at about 90% capacity for the last 20 years, meanwhile North Bay has lost a team in that time, rather than this organizations time in Brampton.

About the bottom of the division, while they may not be that low, it seems likely they will suffer a pretty big drop off after this season losing much of their core.

So can someone please tell me about labanc and how he's played :help:

He's hasn't been great in my opinion since the about game 3 of the first round. Trying to go end to end on every rush, making some sloppy plays, and it's been more noticeable against North Bay in the 2nd round. Needs to simplify his game and use his linemates better at the moment.

4 shots and then you take a 4:00 minute penalty. Why bother just give them the game. DH needs to ask if they even care.

How about Nick Pastorious? First game back in 7 weeks and he's picked up an assist so far.

ditching your team down only 2-0, for Big Bang Theory re runs no less? That's a cardinal sin of fandom
