"Eh oh Canada go"?

I can't see this chant that TSN is pushing actually catching on and being used during the olympics....can you?

Anyone who chants this should be ashamed of themselves.

I like how an American multi-national corporation is going to determine Canada's cheer for them. Especially one as stupid as this.

I refuse to acknowledge this chant or the commercial that peddled the idea.

Blame Pepsi, not TSN.

Also, what the hell with putting random names in the HHOF?!

I don't know, but I just signed up for that ****.

This cheer sucks.

Really, Flames and Oliers fans should just beat the crap out of each other in the stands. Seeing how it's out west and all.

It's so damn stupid man. It's like Americans cheering "Y'all Americans Go! Y'all Americans Go!". What a joke.

What's wrong with "Go Canada Go"? I see nothing wrong with that chant.

That's how effective that ad is. I tuned it out so much I didn't even realize Pepsi was the one promoting this crap chant.

It's ridiculous. Just sing the anthem. Get the big guy named Mark with the cumberbun and the great voice to sing the anthem, then have the crowd join in like the playoffs. Then drop the puck.

Mark Donnelly, and it's not just playoffs.

It'd be nice if the Olympic committee considered that, actually.

Is this about that ridiculous Pepsi bid to "create" a cheer for Canada? That stupid "Eh! O! Canada Go!" thing?

What the hell is wrong with "Go Canada Go"? We've only been chanting that for for-freaking-ever. One of the coolest hockey things I ever saw was in the Summit on Ice series DVD how a loud section of Canadian fans was chanting that during one of the games in the USSR. Spine tingling stuff.

It'd be pretty awesome after each win though. (or do they only play the anthems after the gold medal?)

Who cares, nobody is going to actually use that cheer and Hockey Canada probably made some money off it.

Its either going to be CA-NA-DA, or Go Canada Go!

We need to start a "EH! OH! PEPSI SUCKS" campaign asap and have people bring "COKE > PEPSI" signs to all the events in Vancouver.

That'll teach em!
