Don Cherry & the Coach's Corner | 2018/2019

[hoglund]

Don Cherry knows his hockey, says his opinions bluntly (some find offensive, some not) and he's entertaining. I'm glad he's back.

You can't deny he's discriminatory though.

CBC’s Don Cherry’s seven most outrageous moments | The Star

"In April, 1998, Cherry prompted Bell Canada in Quebec to pull its ads on Coach’s Corner after Cherry calls Quebecers “whiners” and criticized Olympic skier Jean-Luc Brassard, calling the medallist “that French guy.”"

"In May, 1993, Quebec MP Vincent Della Noce calls for the House of Commons to censure Cherry for “taking a malicious pleasure in ridiculing francophones by saying the people of Sault Ste. Marie speak the good language.”"

Or that time he called Stu Grimson, Chris Nilan and Jim Thomson hyprocrites and pukes for speaking out against fighting.

Everyone on this entire thread is discriminatory. Where is your outrage?

Just so we are clear you and seemingly everyone else that dislikes the man is totally fine making jokes about how old and senile he is. And THEN talk about how he is a racist and a bigot. Clear hypocrites.

With many of the recent posts being of a political nature and that they were subsequently deleted, I'm closing the 2018/19 thread.

When the 2019/20 season approaches, a new stickied thread on this subject will be created.
