Now Hercules is mad: Christian actor Kevin Sorbo took to Facebook to express his anger with classic television show recycler TV Land after they pulled the “Dukes of Hazzard” off the air following the Charleston church shootings that claimed nine lives. At issue was the Confederate flag painted on the roof of the iconic “General Lee” Dodge Charger driven by the Dukes in the good ol’ boys car chase show. Sorbo — whose claim to television fame was a brief stint as TV’s Hercules in Hercules: The Legendary Journeys — blamed the pulling of the show on the “PC crowd” calling them “nuts and insane.” “Hey PC crowd! You guys are nuts! Insane! Crazy! Banning The Dukes of Hazard? Really? The Confederate Flag on the car? When does this stop?” Sorbo wrote. “Then get rid of Hogan’s Hero’s, The Jeffersons, All in the Family, etc. The list goes on. Chocolate is racist then. So are marshmallow’s. I am offended by everything should be the Lefts slogan.” Sorbo continued, “By the way, we should ban the American Flag. It represents the pillage of Native Americans. Also Washington, DC??? What. George Washington owned slaves! So we need to change the name there, too.” The pulling of the show also drew the ire of former Dukes star Jon Schneider who admittedly stands to lose income in the form of royalties due to the cancellation. Schneider — who played “Bo Duke” — told The Hollywood Reporter he was angry the actions of Charleston shooter Dylann Roof reflected poorly on the show in which he once starred. “I am saddened that one angry and misguided individual can cause one of the most beloved television shows in the history of the medium to suddenly be seen in this light,” Schneider said. “Are people who grew up watching the show now suddenly racists? Will they have to go through a detox and a 12-step program to kick their Dukes habit? ‘Hi … My name is John. I’m a Dukesoholic.’”

Best hair in the league, now that Richards has lost his locks.

Now Dukes of Hazzard is banned apparently on the late night old show replay channels. WTF? Boys in their teen and even pre-teen years truly should not be deprived of Daisy Duke, that's just not fair.

That was the game where the clock ran out when Brink was trying to score a TD from the one, several times, right?

I still remember the still photo of Alex Brink being hit in the chin by a Montreal helmet and being sent flying, while Murray Clarke just watches impassively and makes no move to throw a flag.

They got the quote wrong - they forgot to add an "s" after "win".

man, what we could do with the defence if we had five National hogs.

ok well....there you go. It would have sucked if we had lost the game by 1 point, and that missed call had been the difference. As it stands, it didn't affect the eventual outcome so I'm not as angry.

just watched a bit of the scrimmage online. Man there are some big kids out there. Denham - not sure who that is - he's massive! He stripped Franklin of the puck and then set up Spacek for the winning goal in overtime.

I see your crazy Star Wars picture and raise you:

Spock on the DL would be deadly, though no OL could stop Darth Vader.

Is that because you guys have that trait in common?

LOL just like Brian "Spinner" Spencer's dad attacking the CBC in Prince George for not showing the Leafs game.

Which is why the brain is called "grey" matter and not "black and white" matter.

We should just cut and paste this every week.

As I've made clear I'm no fan of Brohm, but on the other hand, it could also be a credit to the coaching in Montreal for Cato's success by good game-planning, while Brohm's poor performance was based in the bad play-calling of our OC. Brohm was bad, but the plays he was forced to run were just awful too.

man then that means I've studied a lot of film.

Here's Drew finally speaking on the issue. He's slurring his words and can't remember who he is or where he is, but other than that, he seems totally fine!! http://www.bluebombers.com/video/index/id/112323
