The remaining 10% of the posters here should form a special tactical strike team which hits back hard anytime a media member crosses any line. Diss the captain? You wake up in the morning with goat droppings on your car. (I'm assuming the more traditional goat decapitation is not (or at least extremely rarely) an option). Or maybe you get locked in a basement for a while. Or a couple of english hooligans drive up and smack you around a bit. Or we really go all out and do like the US Army, blare Manowar or Rhapsody OF FIRE outside your window all night long. Being a member of the Anti-Media Strike Force would probably be more fun.
I think I might enjoy the loud music should it happen to me. Unless you are talking about just repeatedly blasting the narration at full volume to someone forced to listen for hours at a time. That might become painful, on several levels
And as for an Anti-Media Strike Force, what is Doug Gilmour up to these days? That was a man with more practical jokes than he had victims to try them on. Let him loose on people who deserve a little shock, he could work alone (or with other people if help was required) and everyone else in the A-MSF could go along and watch, grading his actions and making notes on what happened, which can be given to mcphee, who can relay events in his column. Works out nicely for everyone, doesn't it?
As for serious suggestions, most of the people mentioned already for the reasons stated. Maybe get a Russian correspondant to provide insight on Emelin (if he doesn't come/go over), Valentenko and Korneev. Although I expect Dan could also keep us well up to speed in those cases. And after Whitesnakes field reports from the development camp, he could be a 'reporter at the scene'.
Montreal should be on everyones list, his prospect reports are fantastic and very much appreciated.
I find that Mike8, Marc the Habs Fan & 417 to MTL's posts are spot on. To give the show a global flavour, I think you'd have to include Qui Gon Dave. For the Quebecois angle Beatnik gets my vote. Then add a little levity from mcphee and Gros Bill (occassional guest appearance by Brisebois).

Great list. Plus Montreal for the prospects side, I wish I would have a segment on his show going head-to head with Michel ''Higgins will never make it'' Bergeron....
Love Blind Guardian in-depth analyses but that's definately too intelligent for 110%....And tons of others that will do a much better job than what we have already....
I think somebody mentioned that already, but I can't believe RDS does not have have a 30 minutes segment per week talking about our prospects....I think it's a terrific idea and would obviously love to be part of that....

Can you imagine how much more "over-hyped" Montreal prospects would become if RDS had a 30 min segment on them?
Ah Borat... the living legend here. I was at the movies last weekend and I saw a preview for a movie called Borat and I'm sitting there thinking how hilarious Borat on HF is. You're taking over us Borat!
I think about 90% of the posters on this board could start off by running a blog like certain-you-know-whos. And then, probability says some percentage of them would actually get a few "rumours" or wild-*** predictions right, after which they would quickly be assimilated by Sportsnet or ESPN or somesuch other media outlet.

Reason: typo
There is a lot of people around here that would do a better job than a guy like Benoit Brunet on RDS. I don't really care about 110% their job is to make a debate(even if everyone is on the same page, they will tell someone to have a different opinion) it's not serious.
