Case in point:  If a photographer emails myself or my staff and says we're not to use his work, we have to remove any images we've used, or face suit.   As far as 'mainstream' goes, I hope we haven't jumped the shark.  This site is owned by Fansided LLC (Americans!) and Oil On Whyte has at least one American who contributes fairly regularly.  Now, Grant's Twitter handle has appeared on Sportscentre.     It's easy to see that you and C&B don't get along, but I'm fairly certain that anyone who writes that much about a near last place hockey team isn't doing it just for money.   If we get groupies, I'll agree that we've made it big.  I'm also certain that Grant's wife would kill him.     Cheers!   @TheOilogosphere@Realoilfan
