If we are the oilers we can play the blow-out scene from "There will be blood" every time we stomp someone. Also, it makes the lives of newspaper writers easy... "Oilers Drill (Opponent)". Everytime. No need for originality, we'll call it tradition.

If we have a comeback victory... "Oilers dig deep for win"... writes itself.

And when we have a game stolen from us, Schlossman can write that we ran into "another fracking hot goalie!" :p

Sportswriters never listen. used to have one for a roomie that covered a certain team in Fargo. I was always disappointed that he never listened to my headline ideas when the Bison played Bemidji or Minot St...... Bison women lick the Beavers practically writes itself.

Cherry picker.

...and every time we lose be prepared for "Oilers get Drilled/Pumped" or "Oilers Dig Early Grave"...Although I like the thought of "Greasy Goals Lead to another Oiler Win"...yeah, there's a ton of headlines I guess...

to use this year's hockey team as an example... The Oilers refined as the season went along.

Sloppy Win? Oilers get crude win.

Good win? make a number of sweet jokes.

Winning streak? Oilers keeping pumping.
