Let's get rid of Pierre McGuire - LoftyPines - 04-04-2004

Ladies and Gentlemen,

Like every kid in Canada, I have spent every Christmas break watching Team Canada dominate at the World Junior Hockey Championships. There have been some great battles fought during these games, and normally the commentary surrounding the games is insightful and enjoyable. But that was when we were all young and innocent. Now, while Gord Miller expertly calls the matches, we are barraged with the stupid comments provided by Pierre McGuire. McGuire has infiltrated the most sacred hockey events, and he is sure to be at the helm during this year's quest for Lord Stanley's cup. McGuire's arrogance and ignorance is only riveled by the size of his ego. Let's put an end to this desecration to hockey once and for all.

Let's get rid of this Jackass now, please add your name below if you support this very important cause.

McGuire knows what he's talking about. He's coached on a Stanley Cup winner and provides a ton of insight. Yes, he talks a little too much or a little too fast for some people, but I don't think they should get rid of him.

Commentators they should do away with: Greg Millen (HNIC), Tom Larcheid (Canucks local), Ryan Walter (Canucks PPV), and the guy who does the TSN Leafs regional games with Harry Neale (Joe Bowen or something).

I'd take one Pierre McGuire over these four lameasses combined anyday.

I second the motion. I absolutely hate Pierre McGuire. Everything I've ever heard him say has been incredibly stupid, and he is the most totally annoying person to listen to. I won’t expand on it at all here; I’ve already said it to many people, many times. I will sign your petition though!

BRING BACK HOWEY MEEKER!! :jump :jump

Anyone ever hear the MacLean and MacLean spoof of Hockey Night in Canada with Danny Galivan, Dick Irving and Howey "The Geeker"? Priceless stuff. I listen to it once or twice during the hockey season for a laugh.

Hey, I love Harry Neal (despite the overbearing bias in favour of the Leafs :x )

All I can say is those Red Wings will be sipping from the Silver Challice soon.

He was on again today...driving me insane during the pre-Stanley Cup show...STOP WAVING YOUR HANDS AT US!! The camera doesn't like it, it thinks you're going to hit it!

Not to mention that he should stop whipping his head from side to side...he'll have nobody to sue if he gives himself whiplash. :rambo:

- LoftyPines - 04-06-2004

And grooveless, don't you love his made up phrases?

"hockey today is all clutch and grab..."

He has more, but I have to get to class, i will think of them then
