Before tonight’s Red Wings/Leafs game, Sportsnet apologized for any coarse language that aired during their post-game coverage of ALCS Game 7

  7. I can finally turn the channel off. I’ve had it on since the game and was waiting for this!

  12. Rogers pinning all the language on Bo Bichette and claims that’s why they didn’t bring him back so that they avoid a CRTC fine.”

    “42m a year? Of course we’d pay that for him! But the language…We made the call to not have him back because of that. It’s all Bo’s fault!”

  15. You know what? I completely forgot about the cursing that took place. I think it was Springer that did it in an interview? I also think John did it when he gave the celebratory speech for winning the ALCS in the locker room.

  16. It’s about time they fucking apologize. Fucking classless that it took them this fucking long to do the fucking right thing.

  17. I always find things like this amusing. The other day I swore at a restaurant with friends, and they noted to me there was kids at the table behind us. (I didnt see them)

    Of course im not going to blame them or Sportsnet for something like this, as its just common courtesy, and Im of the belief that we should make an effort to leave the world better than we found it.

    But with the way the world is today, kids (and people in general) are often subjected to infinitely worse things upon opening any social media app.

  18. This is beyond pathetic. If people are by chance still offended by this, seek help. To anybody spending time and resources policing this, spend that time on an actual problem that currently exists in the world.

  21. Nothing screams Canadian broadcasting more than a three month post-dated “sorry”

  22. and here I am still waiting for an apology about Buck’s phone going off during games

  23. “Before we had the opportunity to advise audiences of the risk”

    Which would go something like – “listen up snowflakes. There is a good fucking chance that you cunts are going to hear some foul language. So be fucking warned”

  25. Well for fucks sake I am glad they fucking fuck fuck apologized in case any fuckface gave a fucking fuck. Go Jays!!!!
