    Yes, that's the worst part.

    We get the Canadian Tire douche instead of funny commercials.

      I hardly have seen a hockey game on HD. A few games this season have been on INHD, where they took the OLN broadcast and brought HD cameras. But that's been like 2 or 3 games... if that.

      The networks don't broadcast hockey anymore. And OLN doesn't have their HD channel yet.

          HDnet carries a lot of hockey, at least according to nhl.com

              Ah... that must be it. Don't have HDNet. I wonder though, with OLN having it, does HDNet still have the rights to show hockey? I got Comcast (owner of OLN) and I only got INHD as an 'HD only' channel.

                  Very interesting... I figure the HD rights are seperate from regular broadcast rights.

                    They're the people who make the awesome rules that, for example, 25% of music on radio stations need to be Canadian, subjecting us to Bryan Adams on a regular basis.
                    Don't forget Trooper and Rush.

                      They don't play that much here...it's all about Bryan Adams, BTO, Nickelback, and 54-40.

                            The worst part of the CRTC, of course, is the attempt to censor Don Cherry.

                            You do not censor this man!







                            I can't wait to see Don's suits in High-Def.

                              On Don Saleski, who he coached in Colorado:
                              "I remember taking a look at him and saying ‘Anyone who perms his hair has got to go’. So we sent him to Fort Worth."
                              -- Don Cherry - March 1987

                              "I consider my style that of the men of the 1930s, where men had an elegant style, tight suits, tight collars, lots of jewellery, a clean sharp image. I must admit my style has been called foppish, but I like it. "
                              -- Don Cherry

                              "I died on May 10, 1979; at 11:10 p.m. to be exact. Two shots killed me. The first, which left me critically wounded, was fired by Guy Lafleur. The one that wiped me out came from the stick of Yvon Lambert. Had I survived these attacks I have no doubt that I would still be coach of the Boston Bruins today and, quite likely, governor of Massachusetts."
                              -- Don Cherry

                              "If it keeps going like this, the Zamboni driver is going to be the first star."
                              -- Don Cherry

                              "Most of the guys that wear them are Europeans and French guys."
                              -- Don Cherry's infamous comment about visors in the NHL made on Coach's Corner, January 31, 2004
                              "The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."

                                KH could probably get the Caps in HD if he wanted it.
                                I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891
