Who in their right mind thinks that's the way to make friends after a fun come from behind win?

You can play victim until the cows come home. You can even convince yourself you're doing a great job arguing your case. But most of us just see through it and always will.
I didn't say 4 meh rookies that is the problem people can't argue what is actually said and have to change it to make it look more extreme than it was.
And we aren't competing for anything, almost all people here agree this isn't a Cup contender this season.

I am not playing the victim I pointed out what happened, in a game the Flames were winning posters here still had to call out me and others for no reason at all. That was the only time I responded.

I don't need to convince myself of anything I have facts and reality on my side so pat yourself on your back all you want it doesn't change what actually happened.

The Flames were winning, did you praise them, get excited? You can't think of any reason people were calling you out for no reason? Hard to believe that would happen on a Flames message board after a win. That was a pretty fun game overall wouldnt you agree?

It's not my or anyone's job to have a photographic memory of your drivel. You said this ...

I felt it was a way of undermining the impact of some pretty promising players. I think almost anyone would agree.

Wasn't trying to spin anything.

I think you're reaching with "facts" and "reality" ... always amazes me how people claim their opinion is some reality we should all bow to. Feels like a fact to me that you like to take things negatively whenever you can and especially when there is optimism to squash.

Also seems like a fact that you then quickly switch to looking for misquotes as a way to prove your innocence and deflect away from your original motive.

Gets old. I would guess 90% of the site would agree ... which doesn't make it a fact, but it sure points to a consensus.

it wasn't after the win it was during the game. Yes high scoring games are almost always fun to watch.

As for calling me out I would think watching their team win would be enough that they don't need to obsess about posters not even involved in the thread.

I am glad you enjoyed the Flames win, I did too.

Don't expect you have to have a photographic memory just don't post things I didn't say. It is pretty easy since the posts are all available for you to go back and read.

It isn't undermining anything and has been a legitimate topic about whether we can win with the current youth we have none of which look to be the elite talent that Stanley Cup winners have.

I have never said anyone needs to bow to anything, why the hyperbole and lies? I didn't squash any optimism I replied to posts calling me out for no reason, in a thread I made one comment in that wasn't negative in any way. My replies weren't negative, weren't squashing anything and yet i repeatedly get called an Oiler fan for no reason at all. That is what happened, that is reality and those are the facts. You can't even disagree with any of that, it is what happened.

I would welcome all views, never have told people they should leave the site, never called others Oiler fans for disagreeing with my views, pretty clear which group wants other to "bow down" to their opinions.

You don't know my original motive so why just make it up? I have been clear my "motive" wash to respond to the needless posts about me, that's it. Yes I will call out misquotes and posts designed to suggest things I never said or thought, why wouldn't I?

I don't need to prove any innocence when I never did any of the made up claims.

Consensus, especially in something like this is pretty meaningless, just because a group of people would rather believe lies and made up narratives, doesn't really mean much. My guess is the majority of people don't give a #### either way.

Just to be clear I didn't call you an oilers fan I just asked if you were one because you are acting like one. You never answered my question, I suppose a true oilers fan wouldn't. Don't you agree our rookies are difference makers and the oilers top 2 guys have been inconsistent. That's something to be excited about; Unless, well if you are an oilers fan?

LOL

Sure you didn't call me an Oilers fan, LOL.

I think it is pretty early to say our rookies are difference makers and think the grouping them all together doesn't work as there has been a big difference in their individual play, but Zary has certainly had a great start to his career.

McDavid and Draisatl have certainly not been able to carry the Oilers this year, I have laughed about the Oilers many times, pointed out they were overrated many times, talked about how they are further away than a player or two that their fans and media seem to think, but sure keep up with the "unless you are an Oilers fan" BS and pretend you aren't calling me an Oilers fan.

Well I agree with you on the oilers, (even though you didnt answer my question). I said you are "acting" like an oilers fan. Canuck and Winnipeg are not usually this invested in dissing the Flames. Come on fess up. You will feel better and upto 90% of the board will have a good chuckle.

No need to answer your silly, pathetic "question"

There is a large graveyard filled with my enemies. I do not wish to add to it, but will if given no choice. Those who pick fights with me do so at their own peril, but maybe this is their lucky day…
