But sports is about enjoyment, so even if that's how one feels, it doesn't make sense to me to root against your team or not enjoy wins.
What people were objecting to is the notion, that the poster put forth, that he would prefer the team lose.

I'd agree. Hoping for the team to lose at this stage, with the roster make up they have doesn't make much sense for a Flames fan.
I don't think the current team has a snowball's chance in hell of winning a Cup. IMO they aren't even a legitimate contender for one. But I'm still going to hope they somehow find another gear or three, or maybe even get red hot at the right time to make a run at one.
They have enough really good pieces that if by some miracle the right player becomes available, it might just be enough to push this team to the next level. Not likely, but there is a better chance of that happening than there is of Treliving blowing it up IMO.
