Nothing wrong with wondering if this was the best option no need to attack anyone that thinks so. On that subject let's have a poll, do you like this deal yes/no. Maybe I'm in the vast minority that doesn't like this trade, it's possible my hatred for the Oilers is clouding my judgement, but as it stands I loath the fact we bailed the Oil out of a bad situation, never mind the dollars aspect from a morale standpoint this helps them a lot IMO.
We have a clear cut different view of the English language.

When a person says there WOULD be other options, or that this IS NOT dire the are stating certainty and can be questioned.

When a person says they think, or make the following assumptions they are laying out the process to which they arrive at their conclusions. Often I even state these aren't facts to not come across as someone that knows something they don't.

They are different. I think that's clear. But you are certainly welcome to believe what you wish.

But can we let this go, because a research project on searching for what I and others have been saying is a pretty clear waste of time.
