I love to watch Coachès Corner as it gives me a laugh sometimes. I mean... a true redneck with a mouth in a thousand dollar suit that looks like a highway sign... hilarious at times. |

09 Jan 11 - 08:57 PM (#3070959) Subject: RE: BS: Canuck alert... The Don Cherry story on From: Beer Well Gnu there was a time that I found him to be very entertaining. Now (I.M.H.O.)I find him to be nothing more than a raciest and bigot. The sooner C.B.C. drops him the better. Sure he is very good for the forces p/r and the harper followers and he does know his hockey but I for one will not miss him. So there I've said it just like our friend Raptor on the Beatles thread.

10 Jan 11 - 10:50 AM (#3071324) Subject: RE: BS: Canuck alert... The Don Cherry story on From: Sandy Mc Lean I watched it a few months back. This broadcast is a re-run. I always felt that Don had all the charm of one of those WWF buffoons, and that has not changed, but the story I found fascinating in that it showed some humanity behind the bluster. It was well acted and directed and better than most of the tripe on the airwaves! |

The Don Cherry story on From: number 6 "I always felt that Don had all the charm of one of those WWF buffoons" so true Sandy .... as far as I'm concerned hockey went downhill about the same time Don Cherry emerged onto the scene ... (that's my opinion, I certainly don't expect anyone to agree) biLL |

10 Jan 11 - 01:48 PM (#3071480) Subject: RE: BS: Canuck alert... The Don Cherry story on From: gnu Haven't seen him in ages but I used to get a kick out of his speech pattern and the "typical hockey goon" mentality. Of course, he's says things that show he is a bigot which goes hand-in-hand with being a buffoon. My interest has waned as well... again, just a matter of courtesy. |

10 Jan 11 - 02:05 PM (#3071489) Subject: RE: BS: Canuck alert... The Don Cherry story on From: Sandy Mc Lean In one of his early Coaches Corner episodes Patrick Roy was playing one of his first games for Montreal. Being French his name sounded phonetically like "wah". Cherry said something like "What's with this wah stuff; who ever heard of Wah Rogers?" Other comments followed on later broadcasts showing an anti-French attitude. I am not French but I am sure he would call me a Commie Pinko, which I am not. All of that aside the TV show of his life story was interesting and well done! You could enjoy a movie about Attila The Hun I suppose, without warming to the central character. |

11 Jan 11 - 12:47 PM (#3072232) Subject: RE: BS: Canuck alert... The Don Cherry story on From: Little Hawk I think Don Cherry is hilarious, and that most of what he says is just a big act, calculated to raise a ruckus and get people's attention. So far it is working great. Does he say idiotic things? You betcha! Is he a bigot? He may be to some extent, but I could say that about a lot of people. And the other thing to consider is this: He is Shane McBride's biggest hero. Shane wants to BE Don Cherry when he grows up. |

11 Jan 11 - 12:59 PM (#3072243) Subject: RE: BS: Canuck alert... The Don Cherry story on From: Little Hawk The sad thing is...Shane never WILL grow up. Thus his greatest ambition (aside from having sex with Shania Twain, and then the rest of the female gender) is doomed to remain only a lurid fantasy. |

11 Jan 11 - 06:31 PM (#3072477) Subject: RE: BS: Canuck alert... The Don Cherry story on From: maple_leaf_boy Yes, Alan he's best known in Canada, and I suppose he's famous in the U.S. (being a former Boston Bruins coach). He's an outspoken hockey guru (known for his eclectic suits). I usually only watch the Leafs games, but even when they don't play, I make sure I tune in to see his "Coach's Corner" segment. |

12 Jan 11 - 12:33 PM (#3073053) Subject: RE: BS: Canuck alert... The Don Cherry story on From: GUEST,Chongo Chimp I been real impressed by Don Cherry's taste in suits. True, some of 'em are a bit on the loud side, but the man has got an eye for color. He is pretty expressive for a Canuck, I have to say. Mostly they tend to be kinda bland, but not this guy. I gotta get in touch with his tailor. - Chongo |

12 Jan 11 - 09:19 PM (#3073450) Subject: RE: BS: Canuck alert... The Don Cherry story on From: GUEST,number 6 that would be a story .... Harold Ballard ... just don't take your kids to see it ... wouldn't want them traumatized. Concerning Don's togs .... I think it's a bit too Mississauga swank ... Punch Imlach's garb is much more downtown ... with that fedora on and dark suit, a true blues brother, he looked like he just stepped out of Chess recording studios. biLL |

12 Jan 11 - 10:02 PM (#3073467) Subject: RE: BS: Canuck alert... The Don Cherry story on From: Beer biLL, I think that Toe Blake would fit right besides Punch in a picture. Those fedora's were definitely a signature for the coaches of the 50/60's |

The Don Cherry story on From: maple_leaf_boy To make room for more seats, Ballard removed a large portrait of Queen Elizabeth II from the Gardens. When asked about it, Ballard replied "She doesn't pay me, I pay her. Besides, what the hell position can a queen play?" Actually done and said by Harold. |
