my son and i were outside this afternoon playing some ball hockey. my little guy was in goal sporting a flames goalie mask.
an amazon delivery arrived for my wife and the driver asked if we were flames fans. i replied "absolutely!!". he cheers for the oilers. my son's response was gold... "oilers!??! YUCKY!!!!" (he's only 5!).
we chatted for a bit and it was everything i could do to bite my tongue when he said he really likes the oilers and cheering for drysaddle after all those YEARS he played for the rockets. i didn't have the 'heart' to tell him that the german gretzky only played about a half season for the rockets.
edmonton fans... like edmonton, are no good!
