So tomorrow is the day I drive off a cliff. Never thought it would end this way, but I guess you can’t choose the way you go out.

"....Aaaaand today we have the Coach with Reproach.....Daryl Sutter! Daryl, with your defense with no pretense style, what do you think about the upcoming playoffs where there is no ice without a price in the offensive zone? Will it cause a hindrance in the entrance to the zone like rush hour on Deerfoot? I'mmmmmm Trace Ventura."

I want to thank this because it's well written but I hate it so much...

^^ I’m with TVP, I cannot stand that guy. But you absolutely crushed it.

I'm having a crap day ... but this made me smile. Thanks.

Read that in his voice too. I guess whatever that guy is doing, worked.

[csnarpy]

Guess it’s just a morning show thing as afternoon is pretty much back to normal.

Anyone catch him introducing Hrudey? I don't remember the exact words, but something like this..

"My next guest is a great friend of mine (who I don't want to tell, as his heads big enough already), Kelly Hrudey".

I'm thinking, wtf, why would he say that, and just as that thought entered my head, it more or less came out of Hrudey's mouth also. Hrudey politely, and kind of half ass chuckling, asked Francis why that would make his head bigger. Francis then had to do some quick thinking and explain somewhat awkwardly how he didn't want Hrudey thinking he had too too many friends...or something like that.

It was weird, and seemed more like Francis' arrogance just accidentally spilled out from his fat mouth once again. I could not detest him much more than I did, but somehow he managed to increase the level today.

Such a case of "you don't what you got til its gone". I went back a few pages and didn't see anything. Does anyone actually know what's going on?

I may be in the minority but I prefer the morning show to the big show. Would a decent sized hole in my commute if Boomer was let go.

No chance in hell you are in the minority when comparing Boomer and Pinder to Nault and Gordon. Big show is a pile of garbage.

What's the deal with the "Time to Toyota under the Toyota Tower" that Derek Wills keeps going on about?

I go to that dealership for servicing but I'm embarrassed for them. Just terrible advertising, one of the worst scripted lines ever, and to get Derek Wills to deliver it to boot?? Jesus Canyon Creek Toyota. You're better than this.

Also the Tower, now the Christmas Trees have finally been taken down is empty.......

Really a dumb expensive idea.

Maybe they shouldn't have fired everyone

Yeah, sometimes its good to have an extra warm body or two for such circumstances. Also a producer to help pull your morning show together when he's done such a great job at it.

[djsFlames]

It makes "we wanna see ya, in a Kia" look like brilliant advertising.

Was there a morning show today or no?

At least you'll be able to avoid the crush of the rush on the way to the cliff.

[memphusk]

Huh. Tune in didn't have the podcast.
