measure night the Calgary Flames defeat the Edmonton Oilers 3-1 in Edmonton. That puts the Flames 2 games to 1 over the Oilers this season. My floor in residence is full of extremely passionate Oiler fans. So when the Flames beat the Oilers I really give it to them — as I have the right to do. In rebuttal I’m faced with the most ridiculous argument.
Fair enough even though the team I support beat the team you hockey-knowledgeable Canadianss give. But there’s one argument that always gets me which until I was hit with this bomb on Twitter. I had no intention to communicate about.
— Flames win 3-1 in another convincing win despite some amazing saves from Garon it was a boring game.
After the game I make a in the same vein that I’d bemock my floormates with after an Oiler loss. Then just like the ridiculous arguments I’m faced with on my surprise I get :
- yet it seems to be completely relevant when talking about a Calgary victory just yesterday. This argument has been brought up by more than 5 Oiler fans since the beginning of the season.
With this logic the gold medalists from the 1960 Melbourne Olympic games should be standing on the podium next to Beijing’s gold medalists.
I did see it. I don’t experience what the Flames problem with the Canucks is they’ve just played really well whenever I’ve seen them play the Flames. The Sedins are friggin’ awesome though. They’ve scored 25% of the Canucks goals this season.
Hey Jim. You are missing the point about this whole thing…when it comes down to sport rivalry between Edmonton and Calgary logic and relevant argument goes out the door. Flames and Stampeder fans can and do put forward similar thesis that can be non-nonsensical. It’s move of the sports rivalry between our two cities. Yeah you know winning more cups than Calgary doesn’t negate the excellent win Calgary had over Edmonton - the comment is part of the game. Sports is not academia in fact it is full of passion emotion and sometimes not logical comments - fans are fans that’s what makes rivalries so much. Kind of desire your momma taunts kids use. Hate to say it we can revert to that level - anyways glad to hear you apply Hockey. anticipate you’ve had a come about to apply a Stamps bet too - another great rivalry we enjoy in Alberta.
