Kind of like if you have an earlier draft pick than someone else, it's not a guarantee that you'll end up with the better player, but as a general rule it's still better to have the earlier pick. There's no assumption that the earlier pick will result in the better player, but there's still acknowledgement that an earlier pick is more valuable than a later pick.



I think that's a phenomenon happening everywhere, not just in our city.

I agree, but Calgary is or was primarily conservative. And it’s not like things have really gotten better here as it’s gotten to be more progressive. And this is coming from a guy who is not a conservative minded person.
