Default What should the new thread title for the Edmonton is no good thread be?

Oilers are no good: We want 11! (11 years playoff draught). In the theme of "We want 10!" http://youtu.be/doizAz5wEDY

It's also seeped pretty deeply into the general culture of this forum and shows up way too often in threads that are totally unrelated to the Oilers.
I always thought one of the fundamental principles of CP was "if you aren't interested in it, don't post in it".

There's plenty of discussion going on here. If you aren't interested in said discussion, well...

It's just a bit of fun, I don't see the problem with bashing a rival for the sake of bashing a rival. Especially when they deserve it.

It's the biggest rival we have. If it was some random team from a different division, I'd agree. Although part of me would still enjoy something like "Columbus is no Good: You're off the case Bobrovsky"

It's like McCarthyism, except productive and the Oilers deserve it.

Speaking of which...nik is clearly a closet oilers sympathizer. Get him!

If you mean whining about something that's universally enjoyed as a good and enduring source of amusement, I guess you did. Bravo.

Didn't Kevin Lowe unretire his jersey #4 for Taylor Hall?

"E=NG4 Kevin Lowe wore #4. 'Nuff said."

I would rather a simple "Edmonton Oilers" thread title or even just "E=NG4".
They are our closest rival (geographically) and there is enough discussion obviously to merit a thread. Two seasons ago the Canucks had a mega thread called "The Joke that has become the Calgary Flames" or some such title. They ended up eating crow on that after being eliminated in the first round.
Now I am not saying the Oil are on the verge of righting the ship but I'd rather not chance CP looking foolish when they do. In the mean time they are completely capable of looking bad without pointed thread titles from us.

Though I will admit "New Rink, Same Stink" is clever enough to make me grin.

E=NG4: I honestly see 120 points and 260 goals.

I don't think we will beat E=NH4: A New Lowe. It's perfect and set the bar high. My vote goes to it. But that doesn't mean I'll stop posting new names, because this is just fun.
