But I'm an adult now. I see the world for what it really is. I'm not so proud of where I'm from anymore, and I don't need a hero. I love hockey, but I love the beautiful planet more than I love the game. If the people who prop up entertainment on one side of the rockies to it by destroying the other side of it, then I have a problem with that.
It's easy to say, "Murrary Edwards wasn't the reason you started watching the Flames". Of course he wasn't. It was Theo Fleury and Lanny MacDonald and Gary Roberts.
But that doesn't mean Murray Edwards can't be the reason I find myself unable to support the team anymore.
That's where I'm at.

Why are you not proud of where you are from? What corporations in Canada spend more on environmental reclamation, inventions and monitoring than any government? Look into that question and then get back about how bad Albertan's and Alberta corporations are?
