Islander Fans Please Help
When we sing:
If you know the Rangers suck, clap your hands (clap, clap)
If you know the Rangers suck, clap your hands (clap, clap)
If you know the Rangers suck, sixty years and just one Cup
If you know the Rangers suck, clap your hands (clap, clap)
Are we supposed to change the year every season? Like this year do we sing, "Sixty-Eight Years and just one cup.." Or do we always sing "60" because that's when the song started?
Thanks for the help!

Re: Islander Fans Please Help
given that we kicked your a$$ the other night, and are riding high right now at the top of the atlantic, i wouldn't be chanting anything of the kind. 
still very early - but earn the right to talk trash before you do it

Re: Islander Fans Please Help
at least we'll have something to fall apart from, if in fact that does happen
you guys can't even get off the ground
you can't fall apart - you're already in the gutter

I say this - not to hurt, but to educate
I am a MET fan, so I get where you're coming from
You want to be recognized with the big dogs - I can respect that.
But trust me on this. I have chanted "Yankees s*ck" at a time when we were in last place and the Yanks were in first.
I am the first to say - it's utterly ridiculous.
If you want to live in the past, and hang on to whatever you did almost 30 years ago - that's fine
But to say that "we suck" THIS YEAR, when we are in first, and you are in last - only makes the Isle fans look bad.
And you guys are more than that.
How does it feel to know that when the Isles play the Rangers at Nassau, 60% of the fans are Ranger fans?

I am a Yankees fan so thankfully I have no idea what it feels like to root for the Mets.
Second, if Islander fans chanting "Rangers Suck" when they are in first makes us look bad...what does it say for you guys all 30 years later chanting "Potvin Sucks" every time the organ plays? Does that make Rangers fans look bad? Potvin CLEARLY didn't suck with his 4 cup titles. But you still chant it.

What does our record have to do with it, I made no mention of anyone's record. I just said you should be excited since your team beat our minor league team. They should be handed the stanley cup for it!

So, you're saying that your regular squad wasn't playing that night?

Yes - they have had their #1 goalie, top 2 defensemen and another 2 players on IR since the beginning of the season. I don't think there has yet been one game where the full squad has been playing. Some of them were injured before training camp (coming off of surgeries, etc) so they haven't even had practice yet.
I was happy with the results of the Ranger game, I was expecting a 8-1 blowout. The final wasn't that bad, also considering 2 of the Ranger goals were off of Islanders. 
It's a given that these next couple of seasons are going to be horrible, but unfortunately the injury bug has bitten us bad.
It's really  .

Re: Islander Fans Please Help
i wouldn't have had anything to say, if the OP hadn't said stuff about the rangers "s*cking"
if you want to talk about your team, that's fine. But when you start talking smack about my team, it's on.

um, they aren't saying anything about his talent as a hockey player
they are referring to when he was accused of assaulting his wife.
and they do it when the fans whistle, not when the organ plays.
but THIS year, ALL of the islanders suck
maybe the rangers need a new chant
