This is just the natural state of being a Flames fan, like the delusion associated with being an Oiler fan, the self-hating inferiority complex of being a Canucks or Senators fan, the unearned arrogance of being a Habs fan or the "certainty that you're the center of the universe while simultaneously knowing your team will fail you" attitude of being a Leafs fan.

Bitter, acrid hatred is just Calgary's own particular regional flavour of hockey fandom.
