should I be happy for you? what does this mean then for current ST holders, like me...are we suckers who continue to feed into the Flames' issues that it's run as a "business" first (which is exactly what all pro-sports are, so that argument is silly to me)?
I'm not one of those people who will blindly say that I'll have the same interest and budget in a rebuilding team that sucks. I'll hang on to the tickets, but anyone who says they'll sit in the stands and cheer just as hard for a young, newly blown up squad that gets murdered every night is just flat out lying. everyone's interest will grow and wane with the team's success and that's natural...but don't feel like you need to announce how savvy you were to pull your funds from the Flames when things started going bad.
