This is "low-hanging fruit" kind of stuff, but you listen/watch Nicholson talk, and you can just tell he is an idiot. Ditto for Lowe, MacT, etc. These guys get jobs because they are buddies with whoever (I guess the first idiot of the bunch to get a job, so Lowe in this case), and then people (well, not us, but Edmonton people) are surprised by the incompetence... All (or almost all) of these dimwits hung around at Hockey Canada, but it's tough to f*** up there, given the huge advantage you have, so even if you screw up a couple choices, you always have Gretzky/Lemieux/Crosby/Bourque/Doughty to paper over the cracks.
