Yes, THAT Rick Mercer. If you don't know who Rick is, chances are you are American, or.....well I don't know anyone in this country who possibly couldn't know who Rick is.The Rick Mercer Report debuts for another season tomorrow on CBC at 8pm. To pump it up, Rick is doing interviews with guys like me (if you can believe it) promoting what the show is all about.
And Rick is a blogger too, a darned good one, in fact. Check out his BLOG HERE
Be sure to tune in at just after the 8am NEWS/SPORTS/WEATHER today to hear one of Canada's Funniest Men.
If you can't be in Port Alberni, catch it on our website at www.933thepeak.com

It was nice to hear the ROAR of the crowd at the Pound back at the Pound on Saturday. I haven't really heard that yet this season, except for when the roof comes off for a goal.
It's different when the roar is there simply because the crowd appreciates the effort of the home team. Not scripted, just the emotion coming out. It's why Port Alberni is known as the best crowd in the league. The ROAR you get in the Pound is just a little louder than you get other places. I don't believe that you can describe it to someone who hasn't felt it themselves. Until you are right there in the building or listening to the game yourself and you are in the middle of all the emotions of the game, it's just impossible to understand.
Well done by the Bulldogs on Saturday. Lots of emotion from them, and their first 60 minute effort of the season. I'll give credit to the players and not to the lucky pink tie, HA HA.
I didn't make it out to the "Skate with the Bulldogs" event yesterday, but it looks like it was a great success from the pictures I checked out this morning on the Bulldogs Multimedia Site.
Great job Dennis on the pictures!

Great pictures by the Nanaimo photographer (Bob Orr), the action pictures are nice and clear... I guess AVB doesn't have an offical photographer anymore - haven't seen Shane Powers around to any of the games?
Good job on the Rick Mercer interview Hammer. He is a Canadian treasure!
Also very pleased for the Bulldogs to get that elusive first win and for the rookies on the team to get a taste of the true atmosphere in the dogpound...
Keep it going now boys!!!
