WHO IS FALLING FOR THAT SHIT?
I'm sorry, truly unbelievable... that is like Bugs Bunny talking Yo Samity Sam into taking another beating in a trap that Yo Samity Sam set himself (remember the exploding piano).
This one works too...
Speaking of American Politics... who would have thought that "Batman" would foreshadow 2008 all those years ago.
Now lets shift over to Hockey, in particular, my favourite show CBC's Hockey Night in Canada.
As we all know there is an new "anthem" for Hockey night in Canada and with that comes some sore losers like this guy... who specifically asks to send this to everybody in the world.
"....I've just heard them. I've just heard all of the five semifinalist's hockey songs.
And they ALL...SUCK!! I've been jobbed by some useless dude named Bob Rock.
But am I bitter? Hell no. "F" you...Bob Rock. CBC has done it again. CBC sucks too.
My song was...and is...the Best. Thank you CBC...for ruining my life.
Yours truly, Lloyd H. Manuel
PS: Please FORWARD this to everyone in the World."
Poor Lloyd... at this point we can only hope that he is fictional. If you are real old buddy don't feel too bad because your in the Super Robertson Chronicles... a place where rage gets the better of one's judgement from time to time. I mean surly your life can't be ruined by the CBC... If they had just paid the 3 million for the old song then you never would have had the chance old Lloyd boy.
I think the real error that CBC has made (and i think the song chosen will be fine) is hiring Mike Milbury, who just wrote a piece called The Vancouver Canucks: Contenders or Pretenders
... in the first line of the article he actually has the gall to point out his article title is clever!
Good grief, as Charlie Brown would say... Mike Milbury could be the worst GM ever! He is a man with the ability to set an entire organization back for a decade. The man that traded Chara and the draft pick that became Jason Spezza for Yashin. He also traded Wade Redden, Eric Brewer, Bryan McCabe, Roberto Luongo, Olli Jokinen, Todd Bertuzzi, Raffi Torres, Taylor Pyatt and Tim Connolly among others. A well known mad man of a GM who is now paid by the CBC to write opinions on other GM's. As one Islander fan said "Mention his name to me and you get an eye twitch and my blood pressure rises to an uncomfortable level".
Not only that but they have inserted him into a segment with Kelly Hrudy and Ron Maclean. I'll admit that at first i didn't like Kelly Hrudy... he seemed too slick but after watching him for the last few years he has proven to be a man of keen insights and integrity. It almost seems like Milbury is there as the obnoxious "shoot from the hip", confrontational character that some yahoo decided might work for ratings... and i guess it might. Many of these sports shows have guys that don't see eye to eye and the viewer is treated to the spectacle of the annoyance. I mean, sure, it's hilarious when Don Cherry moves Ron Maclean's hand away from the imaginary line that says "this is your side and this is my side". Apparently 2 of the guy's on sportsnet hate each other (i don't have cable tv) but i know people who watch the show to see those guys fight.
A friend of mine who got into Hockey a few years back credits Hrudy for teaching him things about the game... and that was one of the advantages CBC use to have... that and the song.
I guess i should add that i think Marc Crawford is a good addition to the CBC hockey Night in Canada Staff.
