Yeah ... we'll see how those banners go over if they ever do them nationally. They will be #### on, and rightfully so.

No, they can afford to pay billions for the rights by price-gouging customers nationwide on their cellphone bills. You don't put an ad across the ######ing screen during play. What they could have done is put the ad beneath the picture and shrunk the picture for a few seconds instead of actually covering the picture. Damn, I should work for Rogers' ad department as a fan consultant with my high school diploma. This is gonna be a long 12 years...

Just tape white construction paper across the bottom 5th of your screen and draw a McCain pizza on it. That's pretty much what it was.

"Placing a large banner ad across 1/5 of the screen during play on your Calgary Flames telecast tonight is a major insult to viewers. It's bad enough we are forced to deal with bush league broadcasting for the next 12 years, this is like rubbing salt in the wounds.

PS Please fire Rob Kerr. And all of your "Specialists" and "insiders". And run anymore Telus commercials and I''ll strangle a small animal"

Actually I might just send that
