So. Don Cherry. "You people". It's a thing, eh? I was originally going to write this article examining WHY Don Cherry got fired. It boiled down to the fact he said something incredibly stupid after years of saying incredibly stupid things, and people complained.  He initially refused to admit to, and apologize for, saying the incredibly stupid thing.  Got fired for it.  Then apologized for his incredibly stupid wording. But then, I realized while napping that I just didn't care. I grew up with "Hockey Night in Canada"- but stopped watching when I realized I didn't really like Don Cherry. I don't care that he said stupid things... because he has a history of saying stupid things.  I don't care that he got fired... because his getting fired doesn't actually impact my Life in an adverse way.  I don't care if people are cancelling their subscription to SportNet... because I don't watch SportNet.

Mike S here to talk about something we touched on in this week's Extended Edition of "We Came From the Basement" with Jason: The possibility of a black Superman and a black James Bond coming to the big screen soon. It could work- more so for Superman than James Bond in my opinion. Why?

Mike S here with words and shit. Not too long ago, Jay briefly discussed an advertisement for "The Nun" that was removed from YouTube due to "shocking content".  And he did so without calling anyone the "P" word . Props to him on that! I've had a few days to ruminate and ponder this situation, and felt I was ready to weigh in on it as well.

Star Wars fans are the latest group of "fandoms" that have become toxic to their chosen franchise, and geekdom in general.  Their outrage at the prequels, a Jamaican sounding alien, a black stormtrooper, the revelation about Rey's parents, the introduction of Rose, the portrayal of an older Luke Skywalker, etc. They make me shake my head.
