This drives me nuts when people say this about the CFL and the WJHC. I went to CFL games as a kid before I knew what TSN was. I don't watch CFL because TSN tells me to I watch it because it is a fun game to watch (when the league isn't trying to fix it for two specific teams). Same with the WJHC. I don't watch it because TSN hyped it up I do so because I like junior hockey, am interested in prospects and there is little else going on over Christmas when I often have free time to watch sports.

For many of us the problem lies with Tim Horton's, and its fans, pretending like it's the best coffee in the world that we should all feel patriotic over, because it was probably brewed by Sir John A. himself while riding a moose and scoring a hat-trick.

Do you actually know people who think Tim Hortons is great coffee?
Everyone that I know that goes there goes for one or all of a few reasons: it is cheap, convenient and predictable. I don't know anyone who goes there because the quality.
