Guys ( and I could give a rat's ass how politically incorrect that may , or may not be )..... It's a choice . It may be more difficult for some, but choosing to be a critic was the easy way out when they were playing crappy. I admit falling into that hole earlier ( 2008 ish ) , but quickly saw on this site, that it wasn't for me. To easy to look for / ignore the negatives, cuz they be right in front of you, The positives be where the joy be. But it's hard to change. Thank goodness I had Oilfans... er.. I mean Oilcritics ...to show me who I didn't want to be. I mean, I certainly understood it, but it was not a healthy attitude for me... ( HULK SMASH !! TV ... sort of thing . ) I look to see how hard most of these guys ( players ) are trying... & some, I can see, are trying too hard to avoid a mistake. What boils my blood ?? Players who try to take the puck away from the opposition..... FFS Man!! Take the man off the puck !! Anyways .... I digress. Trust me guys ... it's a lot less stressful and enjoyable if you let yourself become 95% fan and be a critic on 5 % of the time ( you gotta get pissed once in a while !! ) Life is fleeting . So is Glory . Cheer while you can. Just try and forget how much money they make, and what Katz has to pay them out of our pockets with ticks & merch. ... Okay my blood is rising ... enough !! GO OIL GO !!

Wouldn't my posts be boring to read though if I went all doughy-eyed about the team though? How would I create any content?!?!
