Can you understand the difference?

So right now some people just have a hate on for Winnipeg for no good reason but as soon as the jets come back they will hate the Jets?
That's BS. As I said some people in this thread obviously aren't sure if Winterpeg is a legitimate option. Others just hate Winnipeg and/or the Jets. Some I'm sure because they are old rivals and others because they think Win is a poor man's edmonton.
If you think a ton of people have the best intentions for Winnipeg but don't think it is a viable hockey market and will soon just all of a sudden hate the Jets you're mistaken.
It'll be a good rivalry I'm sure, and in time they will be a strong rival with the Flames.
However, your original statement was that people don't hate the Jets right now, they just don't like Winnipeg or think NHL will succeed there. I'd say a good portion of the people in this thread already hate the Jets and that is why they are hating on the Jets coming back.
Only a select few actually want NHL hockey in Wpg but just don't think it'll work.
So my reading comprehension is just fine, you just don't know what the hell you're talking about.
