Default Since all the other Canadians are slacking...

Deal to keep Hockey Night theme song falls through

IS NOTHING SACRED ANYMORE!!!

fucking CBC, fucking royalty disputes, fucking money hungry bastards killed hockey night in canada. May as well get rid of the fucking national anthem while they're at it. FUCK Copyright Music & Visuals. The highest liscencing fee in canadian television isn't fucking good enough? FUCK YOU Ciccone. Six figure buyout not an adequate compensation? That song may as well be the fucking national anthem for the amount of kids that grew up on that. how many fucking times have kids in canada sung that song while playing street hockey or in backyard rinks? fuck you and your greedy, soulless corporation. What the fuck will that song be good for when it's no longer played on hockey night in canada? it's worth absolutely jack shit if it's not associated with hockey night in canada. fuck Ciccone, fuck coyright music & visuals and most of all FUCK CBC for screwing this all up.

Now CTV has bought the rights to the song, and will have to remaster it. same tune, entirely different arrangement. nice of CTV to capitalize on the fuck-ups of CBC, but it's not the same. hockey night in canada, fucking senile old don cherry with his disgusting suits even, and the hockey theme above all else, THAT'S canadian hockey. not whatever CTV throws out there with this patched up bull shit.
