^ The tenor of this website at first was very anti-Moose. Obviously the hardcore Moose fans will remember that bitterly, even though I think most people here now understand that no Moose = no MTSC = no ROTJ.

In terms of members, it's such a sorry excuse for a team forum. All they ever seem to do is argue, I wouldn't pay too much attention to what they say. It made me think twice about posting there. I can't even imagine the kinds of things they'd say if we got an announcement that we had a team.

I used to post there, but it got annoying trying to rationally deal with most of the people. I can find Moose news on their website or google anyway.
The thing that annoys me the most: all the people from Winnipeg who support other NHL teams in other cities and who don't want the NHL back because they care more for a team in a city they have never been to...
I love the Moose, but the NHL is the best, no question.

Don't forget, there is an entire generation that has grown up not knowing Winnipeg as a NHL city. You basically have to be at least 20 years old to have any real memories of the Jets! As hard as it may for some of us older guys to believe, there are a lot of Winnipeggers who are 100% dyed in the wool Oilers, Flames and Canucks fans. It's no different than with the older generation that grew up before the WHA/NHL Jets. A lot of them are Original Six fans (cheering for the Leafs, Habs or whoever) and that was always their first loyalty, even after the Jets came into existence. Whatever works for them is fine, as long as they buy tickets

This is hilarious. A poster by the name of "Rylai" claims he/she was a member of Jetsowner for a couple of years, and could no longer stand our "lies". Turns out the account is not even activated.
Don't these people have anything better than to bash Ford? Funny how he says he has had beers with Ford, yet calls him a clown in a previous post. Hopefully he is lying, since having beers and claiming to be buddies with Ford while calling him a clown says volumes about this guy as a person.

According to Moosehockey.com regular poster "Mighty Moose", Darren made her contemplate quitting hockey forums for good on two separate occasions. LOL........what nonsense.
Keep in mind, this is coming from a woman who spends 8 hours/day on that forum.

The point is that you mention anything Jets-related (which happens 3 or 4 times/year) in the appropriate section (NHL), you immediate incur the wrath of a dozen militant AHL Moose posters. What's wrong with discussing an issue that currently dominates the headlines in Winnipeg? If one were to put it in the AHL Moose sub-forum, I can understand that being a problem. they also go out of their way to say that Darren Ford instructs his "followers" to troll and harass members of other forums.
