Okay, now I *really* hate Chicago fans...

Unbelievable. I really can't believe someone would go to that kind of effort, and not realize how spectacularly offensive and cruel that is.

What a phenomenal asshole.

Some people are just "special" and not in a good way.

The expressions on their faces seemed familiar and then it struck me--they remind me of these guys:



Do you recognize them?

[dry-2olives.livejournal.com]

Yes! They're the 2 guys Beevis and Butthead were based on!

No... who are they?

These are two of the participants (Cecil Price is the one on the left, the one on the right is the sheriff) in the 1964 Neshoba County murders of the three civil rights workers (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mississippi_civil_rights_worker_murders). The movie Mississippi Burning is about that case, albeit somewhat fictionalized--the FBI wasn't nearly that concerned.

The above picture was turned into a poster with the sarcastic slogan "Support Your Local Sheriff" in the '60s.

*sigh* How refreshing. Everyone's bashing me for being upset about this on my journal.

It's inexcusable. Some trash-talking is expected, and fun but this is just cruel.

When I emailed the Tribune, I made sure to say something like "these specific fans" as opposed to "all Chicago fans." (Although right now I hate THE ENTIRE CITY [/glower].) But I know most of them are probably not assholes.

They're not all assholes. I'm just annoyed at the whole world outside NOLA. Well, most of it.

*Hugs entire city of NO* New York City loves New Orleans!

(And so does the rest of America if that ESPN poll that was posted last week in the New Orleans community was any indication.)

Man that really is awful. I think I'll put it on my blog as well.
