Matt Light has a great Garage Door commercial that plays during the Pats games. They must be selling new garage doors like hot cakes with this streak. [fagandoor.com]

Gregg "triple G" Williams and Al "700-page playbook" Saunders fired. Little Danny Snyder is reportedly interviewing Jim Fassel and waiting for the Super Bowl to get a shot at Spagnola.

WTF? Why is this little midget still trying to fuck up my team?

Sidney Crosby does French ads that run here in Montreal... he's actually quite competent, seeing as they exiled him to Rimouski for junior.

I've never seen the character of "French-Canadian Douchebag" acted out so perfectly before...

I have to go to Montreal for work in a couple of weeks. It's wall-to-wall French-Canadian douchebags.

The Flyers shot a car commercial like this back in 2000, but it never aired, due to the fact that the boom mic gave Eric Lindros a concussion.
