Some chapters were good, but I felt some dragged on.

Hi Karine. interesting stuff.
I personally find Mckenzie one of the least pretentious Of TSN's Broadcasters.
He is a true "insider" a word which often gets thrown around loosely.
Can't go wrong with a name like Bob Mckenzie, eh.

Completely agree, he’s fun to watch and not patronizing which is always a big plus for a broadcaster.

Lets face it you bought the book because there was a Nazem Kadri coloring book that you could use the only two colours you have, Blue and White to adorn it.
But it turned out to be bogus and felt so disappointed you couldn't read the actual book.

if its anything like what we got, stock up.

tho, we have it much better than people in texas who have no idea how to deal with this kind of weather. roads were pretty clear by mid-afternoon around here and that is after getting anywhere from 15 to 24 inches pending where you lived around the city.

that was just the last storm. we have had pretty close to that since the end of january.
december isn't really a snowy month here. it snows of course but the big storms usually are in january.

this feb has been brutal. finally have had 2 days in a row without snow.
