Hi Greg what an entertaining karma they've received. Signifjcantly less fans and they're manipulating the numbers now too. You go woke, you go broke. How ironic that caving to a bunch of selfish clout chasers with no real accomplishments in their life who seek validation through annoying and hurting others because they're losers who focus on winners (winners focus on winning). Sounds about right to me. Good day to you Greg. Perhaps you should call it the Greg Zawasky curse and get the local papers/SJW fairies riled up about it to sell an ongoing story.

Good day to you Steve.

I've written to the newspaper about this.

Edmonton SUN is a better publication. Journal sucks for the most part. Woke editorial board rarely publishes anything that goes against their beliefs.

I just looked. It looks like the same company, post-media. The stories are almost identical.

That's true, they are owned by the same company and run many of the same articles.

The difference is they are edited by different people. The opinion pieces in one vs. the other are quite obviously more brash and outspoken.

Journalism has gone downhill.

This reminds me of how the Atlanta Braves victory in the World Series was suppose to be a huge embarrasing loss for liberals. Yeah, Atlanta, the city that voted 90 % for Biden and whome we have in large part to thank for Trump's loss. The look on my face when they won. Red as a tomato was I.

They catered to the woke crowd when a few sponsors threatened to leave unless they changed their name. The thing is, most people didn't find the name to be racist.
Well, since changing their name, they've lost 16 games at home in a row. That's every single home game since the name change.

Attendance is way down. They are lucky to get 15,000 fans in their 60,000+ seat stadium.
Used to draw crowds of 30-40k for home games. Now 15,000 is a good showing.
Also, most people who weren't football fans supported the name change (the wokesters) while actual football fans saw it differently.
Consequently, they've lost a lot of season ticket holders and judging from attendance, the new name isn't helping them one bit.

Solid logic for sure, team names are absolutely critical components of success in professional sports. I'm also pretty sure that this proves God loves conservatives more, and was kinda having an off day when he created liberals.

I think it was a dumb move. They erased 70 years of controversy because a few people were upset. The non football fans were appeased.
Do you think the people they were purportedly offending may have been appeased? Or don't they matter?

Mostly they’re blind drunk and couldn’t care less.
