It’s a decisive day for the Washington Capitals—tonight at 7:30 p.m. they square off against the Boston Bruins in Game 7 of what has turned out to be a very exciting first-round series. And in preparation, Caps blog BrooksLaichYear is pushing for a boycott of Boston-based products through the end of today’s game:

Drop the Dunkin’ Donuts
Giving up delicious Dunkin’ Donuts coffee for a few days will be tough, but we suggest the excellent Rockville-based Mayorga Coffee instead. You can get Mayorga from their local locations in the DC area and on the shelf at many local grocery stores. Or maybe you have your own local favorite…but avoid Runnin’ on Dunkin’ until this first round series is over.

So long, Sam Adams
I’m actually not a huge Sam Adams fan to begin with (take that, Boston!), so this will be a smaller sacrifice for me personally. But this gives me another reason to support local brewers DC Brau! I’ll be picking up a couple six packs of The Corruption between now and Wednesday.

See ya, Staples
Need office supplies between now and Wednesday night? Avoid Massachusetts-based Staples. We’re not sure about a local substitute you can use instead, so just avoid doing any office work between now and Thursday. There’s a Game 7 to focus on anyway.

Don’t listen to Boston, Aerosmith or the Dropkick Murphys! Avoid Massachusetts Avenue at all costs! Throw out that copy of Good Will Hunting! Scowl at a Harvard alum! Don’t eat at Au Bon Pain! Don’t use Cheapflights.com! Eat somewhere other than Legal Sea Foods! Promise to vote against Mitt Romney!

But seriously—support the Caps.
