That, or start going about your business in a way that would demonstrate your organization is serious about building a winning product.

‘Rebiggle’ goes away, or is viewed much differently, if the Flames started putting themselves in position to play ‘fantasy hockey’.

Play stupid games and win stupid prizes. If the Flames weren't being so obtuse and just moronic in general about the state of the team and refusal to adapt, they wouldn't have this rebiggle gate to irk them in the first place.

That wouldn't remove the T-shirt would it? Especially since it was just about a word and not the actual actions. It's a whole different discussion.

If someone made a t-shirt about Boomer's dumb statements he's made (about airplane crashes for example), it wouldn't really affect how he went about his business. It would just be an insult to him.

Either way, this example is a non-issue really.

Sure. Then just say that. The Flames did this to themselves and deserve the ridicule. Just say what Conroy says. ‘We want to get younger’. Done.

Still waiting on these trading older players to come to fruition.

The ability of the Flames to turn people off that agree with them is now persistent in our fanbase.

Maybe Maloney wanted to trademark Rebiggle and is upset Barn Burner beat him to it.

Actually, he probably to trademark “rebuild” but the trademark office told him he couldn’t use it.

“Not again…”

He was too slow because he was googling "trademike office".
