Off topic but Steve Armitage is doing the speed skating commentary for Sochi. He is indicative to what is wrong with cbc sports. Old hacks that can't make it anywhere else but make a very good living off the taxpayer while delivering a less than mediocre service.
Hockey is one of the only things that makes money for CBC, if not for HNIC the network would be in serious trouble and cost even more 'taxpayer dime'
