Must be nice for the mayor of a city of 3 million to have so much spare time.

"Spare time" lol

/If Martha is airing this publicly it must mean Tory is on Fat Eddie's side.

It wouldn't be Hockey Day in Canada without the Old White Guy Privileged Takes, amirite?

Rogers rumoured to be doing another purge. Kissfm in vancouver got hit today. Cuts yesterday in calgary.

Canucks still havent signed a radio deal with them …maybe because the rumour is true that rogers will ditch the radio crew and simulcast the tv broadcast

All honesty, they were kinda onto something with the event and the crowds etc. Kinda.

But the broadcast fucking sucked and nobody needs more Ron.
Much like the outdoor games. Once a year makes it an event.
Every time you turn around, no one gives a shit anymore.

And Aw Shucks Ronnie should have been gone at the same time as Grapes.

I don’t watch much TSN and only recognize about two of these women so I’ll assume they’re all absolutely fine broadcasters.

They’re also all fine as hell, and it’s funny that the guy tweeting this has appeared in a few of my nightmares and he may not even be the ugliest guy on this network.

Sportsnet/CBC should have parted way with Ron when they fired Don. Sure, Don said the quiet things out loud, but Ron never really called him out on any of his stuff (most of the time just nodding along). All you have to do is look on any Saturday night during the NHL season to see Ron MacLean trending (and it's not because they approve of the job he is doing).
