LOL .... love that tumbling tumbleweed I should be cheering for Detroit, but I can't stand the thought of Hasek hoisting that Cup again is yucky. Plus, the two CBC stations that I work for could be in the finals (Ottawa and Windsor ... you know, it's a suburb of Detroit )

Yup ... drives me nuts on Global. They've been killing the end of the Simpsons for years. That great episode that had the blind guy using med marijuana being busted at the end by Wiggums, etc. In the credits you got to hear Officers Lou and Eddie (obviously high) singing "Jammin'" by Bob Marley. You miss that when Global airs it

What you see now is way more advertising on your screen DURING programs. This drives me nuts. Not only is the station logo burned into on corner, but you get constant banners and crawls advertising other shows. They seem to get bigger and bigger. What blows me away, is that they will do this across the bottom of the screen, right when a movie/show has subtitles running and you can't see them ... d'uh!

Yup, pretty much. There are advertisers who pay to be in the TOronto FC game. It's lost revenue for each one that doesn't air, and they have to be given "credit" for those lost spots. If the game had been aired prime time, then the scheduling of post game shows would have been ones that were all "expendable" (which is how every other game is scheduled). In earlier rounds, when afternoon games went into overtime, CBC would delay the broadcast of other afternoon sporting events that were taped anyway (horse jumping, etc.) If CBC ever has a game go into OT when there's a late game starting right after, they usually go to a split screen for a while, or only go to the late game in it's home market until the OT is over and the other affiliates join in then.

Market Reality is going to set in. It may be rough, and there may be a few teams lost in the crash, but in the end it'll be worth it. Under Bettman the league expanded too quickly, teams are demanding too much money from their fans, and they are feeling the pinch. Bad business. The owners keep on letting Bettman stick around and do this shit though. I have no sympathy for the owners in the NHL. They are the ones doing the most damage to the league, IMHO. The ways in which Bettman has tried to gain those few fans in the US has repeatedly failed. Why must this go on? In any other business, or league, Bettman would have been fired ages ago. Booche, you gotta be here for the NHL Awards and be a seat filler. Maybe i'll run up on stage and show Bettman what a hit from behind feels like. Do you think the players would care much?

ARRGGHH ... call waiting is the thing about phones I hate THE most! Oh wait a second, the other line is going, it may be somebody more important than you. Stop using call waiting Stop eating while on the phone Stop using your cell phone in the bathroom! Stop talking on your cell if you are driving

::watches Kev miss the point:: Sorry, i missed your post quoting Howard Berger. His line regarding what league does NOT rely on TV contracts for its financial viability, doesn't really apply. How can the NBC TV deal with the NHL (where they don't have to pay) has with the League making money? Plain and simple, Bettman should have said NO to NBC when they whined to have the game in the afternoon. Inside info: the new Exec Dir of Sports at CBC had dinner with Bettman last week in order to establish a better relationship with the NHL. Let's hope that it was a step in the right direction.

Precisely Booche, the voices mostly come from Canada because we see it as catering to the US networks who DON'T CARE and don't have a meaningful audience for the game. There's no reason that the game should have been in the afternoon. However, if it had been Sydney Crosby and the Pens playing, i'm sure they would have gone Prime Time, or at least tried to cover more of the overtime.

once i upload another 3gigs i'll have some invites. I'll be sure to post 'em here.

Dumb comment. However, it's the hot marketing tool right now ... make your shit look "green" or "enviro-conscious", etc. Smart consumers = rare breed Dumb consumers = breed like rabbits

Thanks for the post. I hope Bettman feels the heat under his seat for this one. Truly, the catering to the American networks is pathetic and not doing the League any favours.

Alfie was driving an Audi too ... hmmm something he and i have in common (or I used to at least )

http://www.pr-inside.com/sirius-satellite-radio-and-grateful-dead-r131015.htm Sirius Satellite Radio and Grateful Dead to Create Grateful Dead Radio Channel 2007-05-22 14:36:40 - NEW YORK, May 22 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- SIRIUS Satellite Radio and the legendary Grateful Dead announced today a new radio channel dedicated to the music of Grateful Dead and its band members. Grateful Dead Radio will be heard exclusively on SIRIUS and feature music spanning the band's long and storied career, live performances from the band's own archives, bootleg performances from fans, previously unreleased recordings, and even special shows hosted by members of the band. Grateful Dead Radio is expected to launch on SIRIUS this summer. "We have fans who've driven hundreds of miles to see us," said Grateful Dead drummer Mickey Hart. "Now you can save on greenhouse gas emissions with SIRIUS without driving a mile." "Grateful Dead's importance in the history of rock n' roll is undeniable. In the 60s they helped to define a generation with their music and their creativity, in the 70s they virtually pioneered the concept of 'jam bands,' and in the 80s and 90s they were among the preeminent live touring bands. They have continued to amass a significant and extremely loyal fan base to this very day," said Scott Greenstein, President, Entertainment and Sports, SIRIUS. "This unique musical relationship makes SIRIUS the premier home for Dead Heads across North America and Grateful Dead Radio will bring the band's music into the future of audio entertainment." "Listen up, and listen good," said Grateful Dead guitarist Bob Weir. Grateful Dead started a musical revolution in the psychedelic landscape of the 60s. The band, well known for constantly touring, kept the hippy spirit alive during the following decades, creating a devoted community of fans. Grateful Dead's numerous studio recordings were often collected from material that they originally played in concert. Grateful Dead Radio joins a line up 24-hour, commercial-free music channels dedicated entirely to some of the world's greatest recording artists such as Elvis Radio, channel 13, the world's only official, all-Elvis Presley radio channel broadcasting live from Graceland in Memphis. SIRIUS has previously dedicated channels exclusively to the music of Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band, The Rolling Stones, David Gilmour and Pink Floyd, George Strait, and most recently The Who. SIRIUS is also the exclusive radio home of Shade 45, channel 45, the uncut hip-hop channel co-created with Eminem, "Little Steven" Van Zandt's Underground Garage, channel 25, Jimmy Buffett's Radio Margaritaville, channel 31, and Siriusly Sinatra, channel 75, the only channel dedicated to the music, time and spirit of Frank Sinatra.

I've had a cell since 95 or 96. Not a heavy user, but it is convenient and helpful a lot of the time. Owning a couple of cars (78 Westy, 87 BMW) over the years has made the cell very valuable when it comes to break downs. Got CAA on speed dial Having kids makes a big difference too. I like to know that when my wife was preggo that I could be reached no matter where I was. Now that they are at daycare/school I like to know that the caregivers can reach me all the time too (not just when I'm at my desk at work). Good way to save some cash with your cell phone: USE CALL FORWARDING! When you call forward your cell to a land line, any incoming calls cost $0.00. This is how it is with Bell Mobility at least. To forward, do *72# + number to forward to, then SEND. To turn forward off, *720 then SEND My cell phone is now my MP3 player! It get's used for music wayyyyy more than talkin'

Vonage is VOIP (Voice Over Internet Protocol). Basically, your high speed internet also works as your phone. Totally simple and easy.

Isn't that disco ball at the Town Ballroom kickass?! I think it's the biggest one, in relation to venue size, that I've seen (the biggest being Pink Floyd's)

You've gotta get Vonage captainsunshine!!! You can call anywhere in North America and Western Europe for NOTHIN'! I called PoG up in Alaska last week and it was the same as calling a buddy just down the street .

Mermaid Statue Draped in Muslim Dress May 20 10:28 PM COPENHAGEN, Denmark (AP) - The Little Mermaid statue in Denmark's capital was found draped in a Muslim dress and head scarf Sunday morning. Police removed the clothing after a telephone caller reported it, spokesman Jorgen Thomsen said. The statue sculpted in tribute to author Hans Christian Andersen draws about 1 million visitors a year and is targeted occasionally by vandals. On Tuesday, the statue's face, left arm and lap were found doused with red paint. In 2004, someone put a burqa, the head-to-toe Islamic robe, on the statue, along with a sign questioning Turkey's bid to join the European Union. The bronze statue by Edvard Eriksen has sat on a rock in Copenhagen harbor since 1913. Copyright 2007 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.

I'd rather not see it on one of the big four networks if it means that hockey gets forced into being an afternoon sport because it ranks low in viewership in the US. If NBC was paying millions of dollars, and more than any other network carrying the games, then fine, they should get say in broadcasting scheds. However, they pay squat, so fuck 'em. The poor fans of the teams involved in OT, and fans of the game, get screwed because the network isn't dedicated to the game as top priority. No "happy ending" for the fan! I refer you to the infamous Heidi Game: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heidi_Game

You mean to tell me that they are coercing fans into buying seasons tix for NEXT season to be given the opportunity to get tix for the 3 games that will be in Ottawa in the next round? That's blackmail isn't it? Sounds like the Sens brass have been learning some tricks from the Leafs :D Could you imagine if the Grateful Dead had only made tix for New Years Eve available to people who pre-ordered tickets to entire tours the next year? Hmmmmm

Yup, and Bettman is the bitch who let the NHL take it up the ass and let NBC call the shots when it came to scheduling weekend games for the playoffs. FUCK THEM. CBC pays money to have the rights to the games and they work it out with TSN (who pay as well) for the first couple of rounds quite nicely. But for the mighty NBC, Bettman chooses to let them decide that these critical games are broadcast in the afternoon. IT's bullshit. West coasters had to watch those games starting at 11am local time! WTF? GO DUCKS GO
