I was listening to this while getting dressed for work, and Tell me that background voice isn't familiar. Listen to the whole thing.




Is that not our very own Mickey Redmond?

Sounds a little like him. I purposely didn't look to see who you thought it was just so I could see if we were on the same page. The letter "s" comes out just like Mickey, and the accent is similar, but it's not quite.

Of course, it could be Mickey in a different mood...

My money on the board pledge:

$1 for each goal scored by a player after whom I have named a hamster.

An additional $5 for each hat trick scored by a player after whom I have named a hamster.

An additional $10 if any of the above goals is the GWG goal that gives us the series win.

An additional $50 if it is the GWG that wins us the Cup.

$5 for a SO by Jimmy.

Hamsters' names (current players in RED):  Henrik Pavel Tomas Nicklas Dominik

                                                                      Niklas Matthieu Daniel Robert

                                                                      Johan Andreas Valtteri Jonathan

                                                                      Andrew Patrick Ian Todd

                                          And introducing:  Jordin Damien Gustav James

TOTAL SO FAR: $27

Wow, he sounds so mellow! Yeah, I guess I sound a little different when I'm not screaming at my TV, too. :blush:

Haha me and the girl both said 'THATS OL MICKEY' when we first saw the commercial on television. Immediately reminded me of the original six intro last season

It may be "based in" Dearborn, but I just took a look at a couple workshirts I purchased from them just a few months ago and both say "Made in Nicaragua" on the tags...

Mickey Redmond is a Canadian.


But an adopted Michigander in the early 70's. I think he's done enough time here for me to forget about that whole Canadian thing....
