Goodbye TSN
Though you haven’t left at all
You had the heart to stick it out
When the NHL made the call
Rogers came out of the woodwork
And changed the landscape we all know
And you just sat there
While Rogers paid through the nose
And it seems to me you put all your work
Into NHL content
Never knowing what to broadcast
When a lockout began
And I have never known hockey without
Since I’m just a kid
Your candle burned out long before
James’ legend ever did
Hockey news is tough
The toughest when you don’t have games to show
Canada had their broadcaster
And the NHL sold out anyways
Even at midnight
Bobby Mac was breakin’ news
All he had to say
Was that TSN was going rogue
And it seems to me you put all your work
Into NHL content
Never knowing what to broadcast
When a lockout began
And I have never known hockey without
Since I’m just a kid
Your candle burned out long before
James’ legend ever did
Goodbye Wednesday nights
Though I didn’t watch you much at all
You had the games for Canada
When I wanted to watch you
Goodbye TSN
From hockey fans who watch the game
Who saw you as more than just a broadcaster
As the keepers of Bobby Mac
*Sung to the tune of Elton John’s “Candle in the Wind”. And yes, I know that TSN is still going to broadcast sports.
