Are you arguing for or against my point or for it lol

My whole point is you only care because your team signed him...take the bias out, guy is a scumbag

I'm curious if there's a place the oilers could go where their fans wouldn't follow/give their endorsement?

It's already hard to respect the team for obvious reasons but if the fans want to earn the respect of their neighbors maybe they shouldn't so easily gobble up what their team is selling. There has to be a line somewhere, right? Otherwise you might as well concede to being brainwashed.

And that doesn't mean openly opposing the move (but please do if you feel compelled), but being able to admit that its not the best thing they've done.

"Other teams poked around it" isn't a valid justification for it being fine (just browse through history and see where this reasoning has been used before... yeah). The point is other teams didn't go through with it, and they all probably had more dough to throw at him than the oilers did. The oilers have been the ones to go through with these questionable signings, two of them in two calendar years, and a brutal try out offered in between them.

It's becoming a pattern at this point, this ain't no "whoopsie"

Sad to see oiler fans turning their blinders on and believing their local propaganda's BS at face value.

Hilarious that Oilers media released a statement that all Perry did was flirt with a reporter and the poor guy is getting the short end of the stick. People aren't really that naive, are they?

Lol. As disingenuous as the Flames statement on Dube leaving for mental health reasons.

Karma for the organization that would bend over to pick up this guy.

Did he meet any of his bonuses and if so, do those come off their cap for next season?
