Original post with the terms.

Quote:
Well, what are the terms of the bet ?
I propose....
Whichever team is out first or lower points (if neither make playoffs), has to put an opposing teams banner as chosen by the winning side for their signature?
And it has to remain there until the drop of the puck in next seasons first battle of Alberta(and not a second earlier) ?
Well, not by me. But by Me Jamie and Brownbear

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
Kanon forgot to read the fine print
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

Anyhow my vote is that Kanon can keep his present sig. Due to the fact he steped up and did it before it was neccesary.

As for the other 2 I would like to see something like what is below.


Personally I would like the banners to say something along the lines of
"I wholeheartedly support the true champions of Alberta, I also would like to say I supported a inferior team for a number of years but I have learned my lesson. I feel great shame for any support I might have given to the Edmonton oilers/Eskimos and this mosquito infested place we call a "city" and I hereby declare that the Calgary Flames and the Calgary Stampeders and the city of Calgary have won my heart. Not only because they have the best fans in Alberta but mostly due to fact of the great city they come from
GO CALGARY GO!!!


This could be REALLY fun

Well if calgary can win 5 of the next 9
Avs have to win 7 of the next 9
6 of the next 8 if you give the next avs vs grease to Colorado

Here's hoping......

This is going to get interesting. Yea, didn't figure I could count on the oilers. Now I have to cheer for Vancouver since the avs play them twice.

*Edit
I noticed the flames play the oilers once more, should I change the top to 4 of the next 8 :rollin

:rollin 5 of 9 ain't likely IMO

NASHVILLE -- LOSS
CHICAGO---WIN
MIN-- ot LOSS
MIN--LOSS(minny needs to secure a spot)
VAN--- LOSS (they've OWNED you this year)
COL---LOSS
SJ---LOSS (MY PICK FOR THE WEST)
EDM--WIN (would love if the OIL won this)
COL--WIN (too little too late)

7pts = 93pts

AVS SCHED

EDM---WIN
VAN--LOSS
VAN--WIN
PHX--WIN
MIN--WIN
CAL--WIN
VAN--LOSS
NASH--WIN(likely on top resting stars)
CAL--LOSS

12 pts= 94 pts

If my GOD has a sense of justice HE will allow my OIL to smite my enemy in their last meeting of the year to officially eliminate the pretenders from post season play :evil

Yeah that was a nice come back. It is almost like the hockey gods didn't want them to lose last night. Iginla takes the shot and the puck skips and bounces and ends up on Conroy's stick for the goal. It is awesome when a team gets breaks. Regardless they never quit and kept after it.

Default Important news for you Calgarians

The Calgary Stampede just announced its new brand to the world.

Henceforth the Calgary Stampede will be known as the, uh, Calgary Stampede.

Apparently the word "Exhibition" was part of the original brand. Who knew?

Now, just two words: Calgary Stampede. Easier for them to spell.

What Calgary officials didn't release was the list of other brands being considered to remake the Stampede into a more contemporary festival. Some Calgarians think a rodeo just doesn't fit with the city's imagined status as the world's centre for politics, business and culture.

The Journal obtained that brand list through the Freedom of Disinformation Act. Here are Calgary's runner-up festival ideas, in no particular order.

- Klein Daze. Inspired by the former Calgary mayor and Alberta premier. Klein Daze celebrations to be held in taverns, casinos and corporate boardrooms. Festivities include elementary essay-writing competitions and a contest titled: Can You Bum Me A Smoke, You Dirty Liberal? Daily passholders get $60 in Monopoly money to throw at homeless people.

- Banffarama. With the mountain park less than an hour away, it's natural for Calgary to include Banff in its major annual festival. The problem? Banff is spelled with an 'N' but pronounced with an 'M'. The plans fell apart when the organizing committee became obsessed with trying to say Banff with that "Nnphh" sound. Several were treated for dislocated uvulae. Jasper rejoiced.

- Stephen Harper Days. Much like Klein Daze, but no beer. Or fun. Calgary celebrates its status as home to the prime minister by kissing up to Quebec, spitting on Liberals and refusing to talk to the press. Yanks get in free.

- Thanks Atlanta Fest. In which Calgary celebrates the fact it borrowed Atlanta's NHL franchise, then plagiarized its team name. Not only that, but Atlanta's a former Olympic city. They're like kin and don't mind hearing about those past glories, over and over and over.

- Capital Envy Ex. In which Calgary cries in its beer over Edmonton being named the provincial capital back in the day. Calls Atlanta. Cries in its beer, too.

- Neoconapalooza. In which the city of Calgary celebrates its uniformity of thinking and the way it votes collectively for right-wing political parties in every election.

- Stockwell Days. Similar to Neoconapalooza, but everyone wears wetsuits and gets demoted for being an idiot.

- Olympic Memories Days. This festival idea was one of the first ones dropped from the short list. Why? Because in Calgary, every day is Olympic Memories Day.

- Brokeback Mountain Fest. Celebrates the fact that this romantic movie was shot in and around Calgary. During the festival, Calgary men go on fishing trips together. No really, they're going fishing. So they're sharing a tent? They're buddies. There's nothing wrong with that.

- BDSM For Animals Days. In which all sorts of animals -- horses, calves, sheep and bulls -- are penned, then forced into corrals to be roped, ridden, wrestled, whipped and kicked. What's that? Too much like the Stampede? Right.

- Eddy Fest. In which Calgary begins seriously sucking up to Premier Ed Stelmach, who lives just too damn close to dreaded Edmonton. Can you believe it, he plans to treat the capital city as the, uh, capital city. Hurry up, name a building after him or something.

- Back to the Eighties Fest. Ah, remember the 1980s. Calgary hosted the Olympics. The Flames won their lone Stanley Cup. Steve Smith was a hero. Gretzky was a whiner. Ralph was at the St. Louis. Men were men. And the Calgary Stampede was the Calgary Exhibition & Stampede. Those were the days, my Calgary friends. To be honest, we're trying to forget.

Crafty, you really need to re-read that bet. Or its just another instance of oilers crying over spilt milk. I never did put it past you to try to find some way out of this.

Amazing game for the flames. Avs have another beat down to lay on the Grease today. Go oil :rollin

And on a similar note. I found this on another forum, and sported by an oilers fan non the less, and one that had lost a bet :rollin :rollin AND kept his side of the bargain.

>>>>>Edmonton, Canada -

A seven year old boy was at the center of an Edmonton courtroom drama yesterday when he challenged a court ruling over who should have custody of him. The boy has a history of being beaten by his parents and the judge initially awarded custody to his aunt, in keeping with the child custody law and regulations requiring that family unity be maintained to the degree possible. The boy surprised the court when he proclaimed that his aunt beat him more than his parents and he adamantly refused to live with her. When the judge suggested that he live with his grandparents, the boy cried out that they also beat him. After considering the remainder of the immediate family and learning that domestic violence was apparently a way of life among them, the judge took
the unprecedented step of allowing the boy to propose who should have custody of him.

After two recesses to check legal references and confer with child welfare officials, the judge granted temporary custody to the Edmonton Oilers, whom the boy firmly believes are not capable of beating anyone.


Until tonight that is:lol :rollin :lol :rollin :lol

Stolen from the Sun, the last one is pure GOLD

Top five things heard in the Calgary Flames locker-room:

5. "I'm serious, I don't think turkey and red wine is a good pre-game meal on the road."

4. "Save it for the playoffs, boys. No way Colorado can make up 12 points in a month."

3. "I don't get going till the Red Mile gets going."

2. "For heaven's sake. Somebody in this organization should know the Heimlich by now."


1. "Rings? Oops, I thought we wanted to be fitted for Pings."

First BB you guys are far from "in the playoffs" Avs 5 points back, you guys on the road for four straight plus you play 2 vs Avs. I wouldn't put the mortgage down on that bet.......

GO AVS GO OIL


PS I am hardly bitter, I have grown up around one of the storied franchises in the NHL, seen the Stanley won live, seen the best NHL players ever on my team. My team will be fine next year while your vaunted team will be torn apart in the next 2 yrs. Enjoy:evil

Well the Flames actually pulled off a win on the road!! Depending on how Colorado fairs tonight against the Canucks they are either 7 or 5 points up. With all these road games plus 2 against the Avs they are far from home free just yet. We have tix for the next home game against the Avs - should be a good one. The more Canadian teams in the playoffs the better as far as I am concerned.

I missed the game. For some STUPID reason I thought it was at 6 pm tonight. DUHHHHHHHHHH

Anyhow, was it a good game?

If Colorado loses tonight I would think that would almost guarantee a spot in the post season. and if we keep winning we could climb the ladder a bit.

I played poker last night with one of the sportscasters here in the city. Very interesting to hear the "inside" Unreported dealings on what has happened up north. Apparently the Smyth deal was as close as suspected. But it was RYAN who wanted out. But he wanted to be traded to a cup contender. He feels he was cheated by the Oilers and probably wont sign this summer. Also some rather nasty/Funny storys about the Flames/Stamps. Man there is a bunch that doesn’t hit the paper/TV. (Good and Bad)

BTW.
If anyone ever needs someone for a game, please get in touch.

Thanks
Jamie
