E=NG4: Traffic circles with stop lights.

edit:

Honestly, from that radio clip alone there is enough material for the next 50 iterations of the thread.

Anything with Lowe in it seems like such a dated joke. There is plenty of current material to work with without having to dig back to Kevin.

How is this a dig on Jyrki?

City of Chumpions is good.

I also like, City of Champignons, it has about as much to do with Edmonton as City of Champions does.

How?

It's not about Kevin Lowe, it's about how they keep reaching new lows with each passing year.

The "E" at the end of Lowe is a play on words, and it's still relevant as Lowe is still with the organization.

It's neat, tidy and to the point.

"Edmonton is No Good IV: A New Lowe"

Relevant now more than ever.

I'm not pointing the finger at them and laughing anymore. I don't see much daylight between them and us.

It's a play on words? You don't say.

Kevin Lowe stopped providing fresh material 2-3 years ago. He may still be technically employed by the team, but when's the last time you even heard from him?

Good comedy is all about timing. Going back to him for comedy material may be technically relevant, but it sure isn't timely or original....especially when there's a plethora of other Oiler shenanigans to pick from.

I don't disagree with any of your points, but Kevin Lowe is a classic man. He's not a summer comedy, not The Hangover, not Anchorman nor is he Step Brothers. Kevin Lowe is Ghostbusters man, Ghostbusters. An all time classic comedy character. Kevin Lowe is Bill Murray.

So the material might not be the freshest but it's true, the man has no dick.

I thought it was kind of funny given that Hall (4) is gone, who had Lowe's old 4 out of retirement. Given that it's thread 4, I thought it was appropriate enough. Thread 3 or 5 wouldn't be that fresh though.

However I don't get why a new thread is imminent. I thought the old thread was proven to be slowing the site down?

this discussion scares me. my pointing and laughing finger is ready to go at a moment's notice, as soon as the Oiler fail train fires up and immediately suffers its next derailment. but all this pre-emptive planning feels like the kind of thing that the hockey gods will punish us for sooner or later.

teams can be epic suck for a decade or more with seemingly no end in sight, only for a bunch of circumstances to magically line up in short order and turn things around. it's what happened with Chicago after their years of wandering the desert...now, almost no chance Edmonton gets anywhere near that, but I would hate for this thread to be held up as an example of how carried away we got.

And now, after going outside the organization to hire a supposedly brilliant GM, what have they got in Chiarelli? Basically, a new Lowe.
