Now they finally look good for one pandemic season and I can see the car going over the cliff in a few months. Oh, and now the team relocating is a possibility? It's like some sort of comedic tragedy. Winning in the forum really did curse this franchise.
Maybe I was being an ass? Not any more than some of the smarmy responses from lots of positive pete's dismissing people like me though. Just different sides. Just as people like me rile you up, people like TOfan and dissentowner rile others up. No right side here, despite you wanting to be the voice of reason constantly.

Totally. I love riling people up with my wild takes of ‘Treliving isn’t an idiot’. That’s some outside the box thinking there, isn’t it?
What’s the point in posting, man? To wallow in your pessimism with other like minded rock kickers? Let everyone know how dumb the Flames are and how smart you are? Mental health is a thing. If you’re this down trodden about something that should be a distraction or something for you to enjoy then what is it bringing to your life other than something to complain endlessly about? To what end? Tell a therapist, not CP.
You are right though there are two ways to view things. Being pessimistic, your stand point, is easy. Any potato can do that. Taking the 10,000 foot view of something you have no first hand knowledge of and calling the people involved idiots or incompetent makes me question who the idiot is.
Pretty sure Treliving has considered each of his options and done the risk analysis. Wouldn’t you have if you were in his shoes?
