Except that it completely ignores the fact that Edmonton is No Good.
Also maybe don't take things so seriously.

Well we found the only person in Edmonton who got a thesaurus for Christmas. Congrats on shoehorning “reproach” into the conversation.

You know the Oilers have won a few games when the Oilers fans pop by.

So funny for him to say all that when if the roles were reversed and Flames fans in disguise flooded hfOilers to pump the Flames tires on their board and follow it up with 'what's the matter, don't discriminate over geography', with zero doubt the same dude typing that would be up in arms.
(not that CP Flames fans realistically would expend that much effort in to go to their terrible board)
The same ultra fragile Oilers community that blocks users who they suspect are OOT fans sarcastically liking posts lol. I mean at least we'll banter with you lot here, even though you're terrible at it and usually break and resort to paragraph long tantrums over the fact that there is an E=NG thread^.
You hire criminals and scumbags, post obnoxious #### daily and dress like clowns. No, we won't join arms with you because of a phony victim act lol. And by your asinine logic, why have pro sports in the first place if no one should discriminate by geography.

You know what there’s lots to dunk on in the franchise and city and some of it is pretty funny( the Lauren with no cups things was pretty good). Honestly that stuff is all good rivalry stuff and you guys can have at it. But there’s literally guys laughing because the google street view had a guy overdosing in it. I get it, the symbolism of that and everything but that guy could be dead, as a result of one of the worst drug epidemics striking our country and hitting this city hard. There’s probably a line somewhere, that likely found it even for this thread.

Except he said "beyond reproach" which means the opposite of what he meant. Essentially he said criticizing Edmontonians as a group just can't be criticized. LOL.

I don't think anyone openly cheering for a team that recently or currently employs anyone in a decision-making capacity with the previous Hockey Canada admin or the dynasty-era Blackhawks gets to use the words "disgusting", or "reproach", or "beyond" and be taken seriously.
You're allowed to switch teams. No one's making you cheer for that clown show.

The Oilers forced a homeless shelter out of their arena’s “Ice District ” because of optics and subsequently stiffed ‘em out of $5 million.

I know an Oiler fan who has the idea that it would be a form of treason to switch teams. He has openly equated deserting your sports fandom to deserting your country. He's a good guy otherwise, so I didn't waste my breath pointing out that sports teams don't have citizens and nobody ever swore an oath to be loyal to them.

Don't have to think too hard about it.
It's just a matter of good taste vs bad taste.
We choose quality designers labels over George's sweats from Walmart, just as we choose the class of the Flames organization over the morally corrupt, self-important and gross looking Oilerz.
I'd be mad too if I unfortunately felt loyalty to a slimy and despicable organization that is an ever-growing PR disaster that feeds rival forums embarrassing material daily all because it happened to be situated in my hometown.
I suppose we can sympathize in that regard.

Don't you know the NCAA's NHLE is practically 1:1, as is the skill level.
Besides, when have Oilers pundits been wrong about the NHL projection of a middling prospect lately?

Speak for yourself. I have better things to spend my money on than designer labels. Snob appeal is not quality.
That said, I do not buy clothes from Walmart, because they don't carry anything worth wearing in my size. Their idea of ‘extra large’ seems to be ‘not small enough for a garden gnome’.
