The original post started from r/hockey when the Nashville Predators swept the Chicago Blackhawks in 2017. It has been adopted many times to fit different narratives but always starts with a fan asking for a redo match in case it was a fluke.
The pasta signature is usually “No disrespect to the…” and “…sweeping them is a huge fluke and robs… of truly accomplishing what their capable of” or “redo X match in case it was a big fluke”. Sometimes its also referred to as the fluke rant from r/hockey.
No disrespect to the preds, I'm a firm believer that Nashville sweeping them is a huge fluke and robs the Hawks of truly accomplishing what their capable of. I've spent the last few days in pure disbelief and it just doesn't make sense to me. I've spent the entire regular season watching the Hawks play great hockey it's just not fair.
If the Hawks lose again I will face that the Preds deserved the win, but I am just 100% sure it was a fluke and does a big disservice to the Hawks and the NHL.Baltimore Orioles
No disrespect to the O's, I'm a firm believer that none of Baltimore's opponents sweeping them in the regular season is a huge fluke and robs the rest of the MLB teams of truly accomplishing what their capable of. I've spent the last few days in pure disbelief and it just doesn't make sense to me. I've spent the entire regular season watching fellow AL East teams Iike the Jays and Rays play great baseball it's just not fair.
If the O's opponents go sweepless again I will face that the O's deserved to go the entire way without being swept, but I am just 100% sure it was a fluke and does a big disservice to the O's and the MLB.Should Riot Games redo the match in case it was a big fluke? (Valorant & LoL)
No disrespect to sen, I'm a firm believer that Sentinels sweeping them is a huge fluke and robs Gen G of truly accomplishing what they're capable of. I've spent the last few days in pure disbelief and it just doesn't make sense to me. I've spent the entire regular season watching Gen G play great Valorant it's just not fair.
If Gen G lose again I will face that Sentinels deserved the win, but I am just 100% sure it was a fluke and does a big disservice to Gen G and VCT.No disrespect to the G2s, KRUs, and C9s, I'm a firm believer that those players making the playoffs is a huge fluke and robs the Sentinels of truly accomplishing what their capable of. I've spent the last few seconds in pure disbelief and it just doesn't make sense to me. I've spent the entire year watching the Sentinels play great VALORANT, it's just not fair.
If the Sentinels miss again I will face that the C9s,KRUs, and G2s deserved their position , but I am just 100% sure it was a fluke and does a big disservice to the Sentinels and VCT.No disrespect to the MXS players, I'm a firm believer that a Tier 2 team decisively beating Sentinels is a huge fluke and robs the SEN roster of truly accomplishing what their capable of. I've spent the past day in pure disbelief and it just doesn't make sense to me. I've spent the entire off-season watching the SEN gang play great ranked games on Twitch it's just not fair.
If SEN lose again I will face that MXS deserved the win, but I am just 100% sure it was a fluke and does a big disservice to SEN City and the Valorant competitive scene as a whole.
No disrespect to the Zeka, Peanut, and Viper, I'm a firm believer that those players making the finals is a huge fluke and robs the T1 of truly accomplishing what their capable of. I've spent the last few seconds in pure disbelief and it just doesn't make sense to me. I've spent the entire year watching the T1 play great League of Legends, it's just not fair. If the T1 miss again I will face that the Zeka,Peanut, and Viper deserved their position , but I am just 100% sure it was a fluke and does a big disservice to the T1 and LCK. Should UEFA have Leverkusen and Atalanta redo the EL final in case it was a big fluke?
No disrespect to Atalanta, but I'm a firm believer that winning the Europa league over Bayer Leverkusen is a huge fluke and robs Leverkusen of truly accomplishing what their capable of. I've spent the last few minutes in pure disbelief and it just doesn't make sense to me. I've spent the entire season watching Leverkusen play great hockey football it's just not fair.
If Bayer Leverkusen lose again I will face that Atalanta deserved the win, but I am just 100% sure it was a fluke and does a big disservice to Leverkusen and UEFA.
