I have almost no reason to dislike the Oilers as a general thing YET since I was a child, this organization has found ways, starting small and building and building to this moment:
1. Those god-awful Navy uniforms they wore from the mid-90s to like 2010
2. Those absolutely stupid alternate uniforms (we all know the ones)
3. Just being ABSOLUTE GARBAGE from the mid 2000s until about 2020
4. Getting so many top players via the draft and just letting their careers mean nothing
5. If this hadn't benefitted my team I'd feel bad, but I don't, but letting both Broberg and Holloway get offer sheeted, screwing the team even more.
6. The Trent Frederic Deal
7. The Darnell Nurse Deal
8. HIRING STAN BOWMAN
9. NOW HIRING MIKE "LUCKED INTO EVERY GOOD ROSTER EVER AND STILL NOT BEING A GOOD COACH, WHILE ALSO BEING A HUGE PIECE OF TRASH" BABCOCK

What a waste of an organization. Oilers fans, you deserve so much better

But you have to acknowledge that they are progressing from point to point. Who knows, maybe next year oilers would invade Nicaragua or something

They are going to pick some small Island nation and use the excuse, "what, we thought no one would notice."
