Flames President Don Maloney accidentally gave the internet a new favourite word — “Rebiggle” — and naturally we turned it into a t-shirt. But did we cross the line? Boomer looks a little unea...sy as the boys debate whether this is harmless fun or if we’ve officially gone too far.

Starting point is 00:00:02 Why we're I know everybody wants this rebuild a little quicker than rebeagle retooled the re-bigel t-shirts yeah how do we feel about I got some texts yeah I did too they love them yeah people like it yeah I got people said the orders in I feel like your texts were different uh no they were they were all that as well yeah which just has me concerned that we've crossed the line well people like them and that's you're concerned you wanted people not to like them no it's we offered this up So the good folks, They had down a cattle, Calgary,
Starting point is 00:00:35 Flames, Saddle, and Town, and Rays, and, and we're not going to sit around on our hands. You know us. We get shit done.
Starting point is 00:00:43 We're not just idea people. They had first ready refusal. Yes. They did not jump on it. We gave them the idea. Could have been their money. And I cleared it with McLeod Law. We're good.
Starting point is 00:00:54 Sorry, Jack. I know it's, um, but you know, can I, because I got a text again this morning. Mm. Good.
Starting point is 00:01:01 and I feel like between the mission McKenna and the re-biggle that we're starting to tread dangerously close to the team just saying fuck you guys and us yeah oh did the team reach out have they have they not said I thought you said everyone was complimentary about it all of a sudden you got some bad reviews no it's it's all been complimentary so can I sorry can I make
Starting point is 00:01:31 a side note or a request? What are you wear to Flames games? It's the sea of red. Come on. We're dropping the ball here. Yeah, I can do that. Get these bastards in red. To let people do we're. Tomorrow we'll be one in red. That's easy.
Starting point is 00:01:50 Okay. Now am I pushing with the envelope people? No, no, no. No, everyone likes these shirts. I don't know what Dean saw. These are great. No, I go ahead. Dean. What did you have to say? I'm just wondering if we're getting too cheeky. Correct. Yeah. And look, like, if anyone that watches this show understands that there's a heavy
Starting point is 00:02:07 quantity of sarcasm and like, you're not here to, this isn't, you know, the broadcast of the parliament sessions. We're here to have some fun and poke. But, you know, if you're going to say the thing and we just quote you, that's on you.
Starting point is 00:02:26 We, no one knew the fucking word, Rebiggle, till the flame said it. And now we're just telling us. helping out. This is the part that's a little bit down there. No, that's because I'm saying it's not, if it just said re-biggle, it'd be like, oh, I'd, if you know, you know, but we've then gone to, I mean, it, it becomes, it's very cheeky slash smarmy. They didn't have to vote and say these things. To put the word on it and then explain. Well, it's a dictionary. That's the whole,
Starting point is 00:02:54 I get it. Oh, okay, good. Yeah. Yeah, I do understand. I don't know. I mean, if it just said Rebigel. You like Kansas City Steaks or New Yorks or ribbyes? Everybody's into their own thing, Dean. What are we going to do? Brian, can you read this just for the listeners? Yeah, sure. So rebiggle, verb, informal, stupid.
Starting point is 00:03:11 To endeavor to construct a competitive or least respectable hockey team, but to fail so comprehensively that a full rebuild inadvertently occurs. Is that not what we've watched for the last three years? Just continue. Second definition. To publicly profess playoff ambition while occupying the lowest positions in the standings for prolonged periods. to reframe collapse as development and failure as a plan.
Starting point is 00:03:36 Used in a sentence. After finishing in what observers described peak sadness, Calgary's management finally admitted the re-biggle was on. Rebiggle might be on as soon as today. I feel like they did this to themselves. I'm sorry. No, you can't blame and you can't be. This is just a wonderful thing we're doing.
Starting point is 00:03:55 We're providing levity. Yes. To a situation where you could find sadness. Right? This is a glass half full. We're taking a negative and turning it into a positive. We are sad into a funny. And again, if they fucking listen,
Starting point is 00:04:13 they could be doing it. Red's digging up here. We're doing great. If they, they could be doing it and they could take the dough and give it to charity, do it of them, you all with it.
Starting point is 00:04:24 Instead of, instead we're taking out to, we're very, and this is, we don't piss around and death be upon you that don't cheer. for us. All the city wants is a sustainable contender, and I think that's what they want to build,
Starting point is 00:04:37 but they're just talking down to their fans. Can I also say that what people want is to be entertained and have, come on, say it with me now, fun. It's okay. Yeah, entertainment. Let's be entertained and have some fun. When I go to the comedy show, when I told out all that money for Chappelle,
Starting point is 00:04:59 I was hoping to be. entertained, go with my friends, and have a little. How about we do that? Then there's some of the crowd, like, I don't think that's funny. That sounds like my uncle. I don't know if that's fair. So is that your take? That is not my take.
Starting point is 00:05:18 We got them, man. Nope, that is. I want you to send Jack those text messages so we can get to the bottom. We'll have to make some new shirts if this one is a good enough, Dean. Don't worry, I'm on it. So what did you stand up for us or did you cower like a? Oh, you cawere for sure. I didn't say a whole lot.
Starting point is 00:05:33 You know, I wasn't really involved in the design. Yeah, so it didn't have any input, didn't know they were coming in pure Ryan fashion. He loves to surprise rather than talk things out or prepare. You know what I've learned over the years is that if I bring something to Dean, he will mull over the options and find that he's paralyzed by the decision-making process. In times of the essence, the re-biggle could be happening at any moment. And it could be over quickly. And so when I sent the re-biggle idea, all I said was we need the word re-biggle.
Starting point is 00:06:03 how, but there's got to be some design element that makes it catchy. And the designer, RJ, was brilliant, came up with the dictionary definition and you know, that was, there we are. It's based on blaming him. Yeah, they could also call us and talk to us.
Starting point is 00:06:19 I don't have a specific example. I guess it might be this when it started, we talked about the rebeagle. There are some times where we'll discuss something and we're all more or less in agreement. But then the bottle collector, as he coined himself before the start of the show,
Starting point is 00:06:40 he says he's got a bit of... Don't mind if I run it through your past. Some bottle collector vibes going. A little bottle collector. Sometimes the bottle collector, it feels like, because he's so passionate, he'll kind of, he'll put a little, you know what, he'll put a little pepper on the insults or the criticism. and it's like, oh, well, you don't, that's personal.
Starting point is 00:07:05 I mean, well, you don't need to go quite that far. I like Rebiggle. Yeah. The description. Yeah, that's what it's been going on here. Well, you weren't part of the- That would be the Pinder Pepper, that I thought, maybe we could do with that.
Starting point is 00:07:19 And you may think it was the Pinder-Peper. I only said Re-Biggle. The rest is the creative genius. And we've taken, because we put the word Calgary in there, we've removed any. It could be anyone. Room for doubt. Oh, I don't want all of these.
Starting point is 00:07:32 talking about the surge, are we? I don't want Utah to take this. Right. This is ours. This is our biggle. All right. I mean, it's just, I'm sure that's a commonly used phrase. It's upsetting that some people are upset and a bunch of wimps. Well, I don't know if anyone is upset, but Dean's worried that people are. I feel like Dean got some feedback that may be people, because I also got some texting yesterday from people.
Starting point is 00:07:53 So it must have been a topic of discussion. Well, do they want some free shirts? You can send them a shirt. I said I was going to send some shirts. You're already ducking. husking in the hallways. No, it was Maloney. It's a year to the stands. You've got your re-biggle shirt on.
Starting point is 00:08:10 Hey, Domo!
