I hope Iggy and the Flames aren't as big of a whiner as you and some of the other posters.
This and the Babcock thread seriously make me question some of you guys. People saying they hate Babcock, that he's a crappy coach, that you won't cheer for Canada, that you now hate the Olympics.
I hate to break it to you guys but Iggy is just one superstar on a team of superstars.
Do you think all the Toews and Richards fans were whining like babies because their guy got started on the 4th line?
I know we all have a soft spot for Iggy but some of this is really pathetic. People blaming Babcock for losing us gold after 2 games? Saying Iggy on the top line is the only way to gold?
These two threads have honestly made me lose faith a lot of posters ability to objectively judge anything. Some of you guys sound like Canuck trolls that roll through these parts. No logic or reason, only whining and complaining.
Post Iggy's stats all you want but he's on a struggling Flames team and other than November has pretty much been a non-factor all year long. I really do wish he'd play every game like he did against NORWAY but lets not forget it was friggin' NORWAY that he played well against.
If he deserves a spot on the top line, Iggy will get it. No amount of whining about the horrible plight of Jarome will change that, no matter how funny it is when I read it.
Edit: How appropriate that right as I post this someone posts a conspiracy post that Babcock was mad that Iggy did well against Norway.
Oh, no! Someone call Transplant99, maybe he can enlighten us on how this is actually a Kevin Lowe conspiracy and how Babcock is being blackmailed by Lowe to make sure Iggy doesn't get good ice time!
