I'm absolutely from the Ambition era, and I credit these dudes with me actually sticking around this time. That's not to say its a better era than any other, I just feel like I fit into this one a lot better than I did any other generation of OCW.
We can argue till the cows come home about which was better, but in the long run, its all history, the only thing that actually matters is the here and now. In the here and now, we have a nice mix of reliable guys who all work pretty well together. That's why OCW survives, despite a tiny (compared to the past) roster... oh, and all the work Jookie puts in of course.
