Well, CBC lost the rights to the Hockey Theme song to CTV. Everyone seems pretty distraught about it, and it's understandable. They've had the theme for Hockey Night in Canada since 1968. I mean, I've hardly been here at all, and I've hardly watched any hockey, but I already feel affection for the song and Ron Maclean and Don Cherry. Don't worry, nothing's happening to Ron MacLean and Don Cherry. :-P CTV isn't stealing them away as well.
Anyways, this is the Hockey Theme, for those of you not familiar. Pardon the kids in diapers. I thought it was a nice example of how some people have probably grown up with it.
Here's Colbert making fun of it.
And here's a little unofficial anthem, since we're on the topic of hockey songs, and you guys should know it.
Oh, and here's an example of Ron MacLean and Don Cherry. Though Don Cherry's suits have gotten progressively more and more outlandish. And his statements have always been this crazy.
