NHL Playoff -- Twitter Erupts with Racist Rants from Bruins Fans
Just sickening ....
http://www.ctv.ca/CTVNews/TopStories...ayoffs-120426/
Jim Rome exposed a bunch of other tweets as well. Makes me sad to think there are still people out there who feel like this.WARNING: This post may contain material offensive to those who lack wit, humor, common sense and/or supporting factual or anecdotal evidence.

Welcome to Boston. Years ago my wife and I caught a game at Fenway and couldn't believe the racist crap from the crowd directed at the players.

One of the idiots mentioned was a 16 year old kid. I've been following his tweets since this story broke and he's been apologizing, literally, to everyone who tweets him.
There are two others that Rome has re-tweeted that have been unapologetic about dropping the N-bomb. Typical Boston I suppose.WARNING: This post may contain material offensive to those who lack wit, humor, common sense and/or supporting factual or anecdotal evidence.

In fact, Mason didn't sign with NE because of that and I think they offered more money
and they went to the SB. His wife was a professional and had
a better chance of getting a job in DC so Mason signed here.Pic of a natural act.
