So does insulting a 13 year old make you feel better or something? I found it funny-sort of.

Now take this to PM's or ignore me. I'm not responding in this thread anymore.

Bull####.

You are passive-aggressive with this post (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passive...ssive_behavior) (now for the first time you're claiming you are 13, among other things), and I'd go as far to say that your use of English suggests someone older... but hey, if you want to pretend to be 13 so be it.

I am not a mod, an owner (Bingo... odd you knew that name right away as a newbie), nor do I speak for this site, I'm only a member. I could be booted at any time for any reason, or no reason.

But as a long time contributor who has seen lots come and go, I'd suggest you take the site seriously, or leave.

I'm 13 dude. I also posted it in an earlier thread, (won't bother digging it up right now, but it was something along the lines of "what age are the CP users here")

So now according to you the vast majority of 13 year olds can't type English properly. Thanks man.

Look, I'm sorry if the vote offend you, but if you hate my posts so much, for gods sake, put me on ignore. And if you won't just PM me. I don't want to derail threads over this.

As for me knowing Bingo, I lurked CP for a year, I've seen Bingo post in MANY threads. It even Says UNDER his name "owner". I can read.

As for my post being passive-aggressive, yeah it was. But that was after being called a moron by you. That's pretty bad too.

so..yeah...Mark Lee. Honestly I think having a steady dose of Lee will let him grow on people, similar to Lubo. I think he will get better as he gets invested in the team. With a national broadcast I don't think you can do that. I didn't mind Kerr so this works for me.

I would love to see Mark Lee and Hrudey as the voice of the flames.

Mark Lee is awful!!! His fake excitement voice is grating. I never could understand why HNIC kept Lee and let Chris Cuthbert go. Brutal decision on their part.

Cuthbert is great, but Lee isn't awful. What's wrong with you.

I would expect that one decision had virtually nothing to do with the other.

As for Lee and the Flames, while I have never been a fan, I a hopeful that if he is calling all the games for the same local team, then many of the things about his call that I found most irritating will dissipate. It will probably also help that he will naturally become invested in the team over the course of time.

He has one of the most unhockey voices in hockey.

He should be calling curling games with the amount of fake excitement he packs into a broadcast.

Tough to find videos of him, but he's a Red Wings vs Oilers broadcast and I've got no issue with him.

Little known fact, if I'm posting early in the morning or mid-afternoon on a weekday, I'm probably in an airport somewhere. lol

Probably one of those people that put on those rubber gloves with an extra snap for emphasis just before a full cavity search, that would be like....10/10

I'd love to see Hrudey involved with the Flames somehow. Always loved his candid opinions.

Off the very top of my head without having to think, Flames related:

Did the SJ playoff series from 2008


Khabibhulin's own goal


Iginla's 500th


After the amateur circus act Flames fans have been subjected to the last 2 seasons, Mark Lee will be heads and shoulders above. Is he a national game material? Maybe, maybe not, but a very solid, professional, experienced voice for Flames regional broadcast is fantastic for Flames fans, and a direct advantage of Rogers taking it all over and having top talent filter down.

To be honest, I couldn't tell Lee from Cuthbert from Rick Ball or whoever else... But that's a good thing. Kerr and his predecessor stood out because they were irritating. A CBC and a TSN broadcast for the past several years have been noticeably better than Sportsnet, so if we're getting some of those guys, I'm happy
