Demers Hired As Senator

Jacques Demers (pictured, bottom left) is an Ottawa Senator.

Apparently he's already asked for a trade to the U.S. Senate because he hasn't been asked to read any proposed bills by head coach Stephen Harper, and feels he can be more of an "all-around" Senator elsewhere.

We look forward to the inevitable illiteracy jokes in the comments. We of course are above such things ... especially considering he did deliver the Habs last Cup with Paul DiPietro on the third line.

Fuck the fact his reading is at a 3rd grade level, what the fuck are his qualifications to be a Senator? This chamber is a joke

Even if he could read Ulysses in a day, it's still pathetic

Its better than Benoit Brunet as National Sports Minister.

Also, our Kovy sure loves pou Habs.

@GG11, horrendous harper is a leaf fan, I doubt Jacques will set him straight on that front.

Great line by Coach Lemaire about Team Canada 2010;

It's Lemaire's only reference point, really, for what may lie in store for Team Canada in Vancouver. "For New Year's Eve, I remember the guys were all dressed a half-hour before warmup," he said with a smile. "If there's more pressure than that (in Vancouver), we'll need a paramedic."

It's going to be a lot quieter on RDS. I wonder if he'll sit with Big M...?

Young HF29 said...

@Boob - I just read that BGL rant. rawr! SO catty:

médias comme eux autres qui inventent des conneries qui rendent la vie la plus dure à l'équipe

but he speaks the truth

Your attractive women content is getting rather low - some of the Oilers bloggers are taking over your signature theme. :)

Maybe, but I bet your metal penis content is higher than any other blog out there.

@N31, I heard Coach Demers will still be doing his RDS stint whilst being a Senator. I'm 50/50 on him on the toob. He, at times, has some berry berry good insight but balanced against his love for Benoit and his purewoolaineishness, he grates. I'd go as far as suggesting RDS brings back Pednault. (Yes I vurped typing that).

GoldenGirl11 said...

Tomorrow I will attempt to use he word purewoolaineishness in a sentence. I think it may work better in Yiddish than English, though. Excellent.

Number31 said...

@moeman - I usually tune out when he starts ranting the whole Chez Nous thing. And frankly I'd rather have Pedneault back over Barney Rubble Brunet.

I heard this while flipping radio channels but is Carbo really going to be on a TVA reality hockey show with Bergeron? Something about two coaches and 14 players each... To which I go oy vey.
