i think Fox also showed some episodes when they were televising (before taken off the air to not just low, but NO ratings, lol) ...they had tried to make hockey TV into a video game by adding a orange tail to the puck to make it easier for viewers to follow the puck's whereabouts...i think it only led to enhanced viewer drinking (the Canadian audience anyhow) as a means to cope with the confusion
hey, neat CFL list, char...less than 10 teams and we can't get in
...atleast the Argos are giving Leafs some competition! |
HI! First of all, I'm SO embarrassed about getting your name wrong and calling you "ii" instead of "jj"...
You made me so laugh about the orange tail being added to the hockey puck! - I can understand that it must have caused such consternation that it might have resulted in increased alcoholic consumption, though...you might find this DIFFICULT to believe, but I've raised a few glasses myself for less reason - and Good Lord, we're talking about "Canadian Religion"!!!
"What's the difference between a hockey mom and a pit bull? Lipstick" I just heard that on tv...reminded me of a few hockey moms I saw "in action" in 1972 or so (sorry, whatever the equivalent of Little League is for hockey, actually here in Sacramento, if you can believe that - a real hotbed of the sport). When those hockey moms "disputed" a ref's call, well, all I can say is, I think I would have preferred to take on the pit bull!
Cheers!
