Brian Burke interview on The Hour with George Stroumboulopoulos. It's only tangetially Leaf related, but he says the Leafs are in "stage 3" of four, and moves on to talk about rats, twitter, his son, and about gay players in the NHL.

Fantastic interview
That was heavy when Burke got choked up. Even if you hate the Leafs, how can you hate a guy like that?
Strombo is frustratingly good at what he does. You can learn a lot from him.
Great post!

It’s true. Strombo is a rare commodity as a non-douche broadcaster.

He has poor tastes in the hockey team supports.

His biggest downfall. It’s a shame.

He is indeed a rare breed of NDB (non-douche broadcaster)…it’ll catch on.

Wow. I was keeping the interview off in the corner of my computer screen, but at the 7 minute mark… I couldn’t help but watch intensely.
If I bled any more blue, you'd think I wasn't human.

So Burke for Prime Minister, right?

but only if Grapes is the Conservative nominee.

No, Grapes will be too busy with the Cage Match For Governor-General against The Shat.

I don’t always agree with Burke the GM, but Burke the person is a class act all the way.
The plural of "anecdote" is not "data".
