Wouldn't that be something though... If Tommy did return. Shows 1040 is a total sheep.

Yeah BJ has some different likes. I didn't mind Ball at all.Thought he did a good job doing CBC broadcasts

Honestly I didn't mind his hockey broadcasts, his football commenting was another story.

Tom Larschied will be more involved with the 1040 this year now that Gililis is gone. He and Trevor were friends
- VANTEL


I guess it's a love or hate relationship, near then end of his carreer I was totally done with his school girl gushing, and talk about someone that contradicts himself. A player would go from hero to zero in the course of one period. And then the gushing would start all over again.

A good colour commentator is hard to come by

Baller was good for the CBC and is miles less of a D'bag than Dan Russell.

Melba Toast
- hillbillydeluxe


That's how it starts.... first, sneaking them from the pantry and locking yourself in the bathroom at all hours of the early morning to devour such. This then turns into a nightly ritual and a slow but steady increase in the amount of melba intake.

Suddenly, you find yourself taking more 'sick days' and spend all of your time devoted to finding and buying top notch quality uncut melba treats (having to now deal with and suffering from residual melba treat hangover and withdrawal - accompanied by often physical abuse at the hands of a disgruntled dealer).

Finally, your overwhelming desire for melba toast treat delights and snorfing them down, becomes THE only important thing in your life. The inevitable loss of job and inadvisable arrangement of various substantial supplementary loans to meet your addiction, ultimately ends in bankruptcy.

You are now forced to sell your house, car, wife, prize yak etc - anything to maintain your supply of the toast treats at whatever costs. Ultimately, you end up living in an abandoned shed under the highway, living off of the 600 cases of the toasty delights which you traded your car for at Costco.

And as if all of that wasn't enough, last but not least, you ultimately realize, not only are you extremely addicted to this double-edged treat, but due to the physiology involved and change in your body's chemistry, you have also now become a serious pillow biter :(

Folks, if you have a family member or know of someone who has become a melba-toast/pillow-biting individual with a seriuos addiction problem, please send funds to c/o Zogg's Bermuda and Stripper-Hotty Fund, 123 First Tree Down by the river and right across from the hogfat rendering plant. Together we can make a difference

Rory got ripped off. if you look at the voting, how is it that the average number of votes per day was in the thousands and then all of a sudden we are to believe on the last day 100k or so voted against Rory?

that was a scam. Cherry's rant about it was bullshiite too especially since he blamed Rory and was whinging. I think it was cuz it involved the canucks...

I think I am getting you. Just as melba toast is the vessel for Antipasto or roasted garlic, so it is the mix for a nice drink or the paper for a rollie. It is healthier without this vessel?

A hamburger, fries and shake are better without the fries.. or shake? So confused, can't follow new age poope.

I like him . He was one of the better sports personalities from that station
- VANTEL


He used to read the sports on CKNW, the local news station in Victoria. I found him to be a decent broadcaster, much better than Mark Lee. I wouldn't say that I'll miss him though.

He's got to be in his 70's by now no? The ultimate homer, but I loved him and Robson together and then with Shorty.

EDIT - just checked, he's 74.
