I was refering to your posts in here during the current debate, I won't pretend to have a clue about your posting history, and forgive me if I'm un-concerned to go look it up, it's not really relevant.

You have very much taken a glass half full stance on last nights loss, which is fine (although I don't personally believe the Flames have earned the right for glass half full at this point after the past 4 seasons, but so be it), and you are very critical of those who simply don't feel the Hawks likely gave the Flames their best effort last night.

Honestly, a lot of good facts that would point to the Hawks beeing not in the best spot to win last nights game, and years now of the Flames lossing and not instiling confidence that they really could make a team like Chicago look tired. There's nothing wrong with it, but anyone who has "optimisim" towards this team at this point is truely in the "blind faith" category, so I have a tough time seeing how anyone can make a good argument against those who see it with a more cynical view.

It be one thing if this was 2006 and people were being negative or less than optimistic about the team back then, the Flames then had earned the optimisim, but 3 seasons removed from the playoffs, this team has to earn back the optimisim IMO, and they won't do that until they start consistently proving they can pull games out like last nights.
