i think George Bell was one wrong word away from stuffing this guy into a wood chipper

    Sound didn't work for me. I went to Youtube and found the video, and the sound didn't work there either. All other video sound working fine as always.

    Sound worked for me. FYI. I have wanted a 87T Bell auto for a while. He’s a tough get.

    Weird - I tried every which way. All other Youtube videos working fine.

    Funny I clicked directly on to Youtube, There were ad messages at the beginning of the video in which the sound was working fine. However as soon as the content video came on, no sound again.

    I would like to hear that. I'm pretty good with computers. Just thinking off the cuff right now, could be some sort of strange glitch in the server. That does happen once in a blue moon. I usually use Chrome. I'll try using Edge and see what happens. If that doesn't work, I'll try Firefox. LOL

    apparently Bell had eluded this Canadian broadcaster for quite some time, and this dude made it sound like his life's mission was to procure an interview with him. so he grabs him after BP with a Spanish-English dictionary in hand. part of me thinks he did it to lighten the mood and boost his odds of getting Bell to talk freely with him, but as the interview labored you could tell he was legitimately trying to be humorous. it was anything but. you could tell Bell was not amused either, but he was willing to take one for the team as long as the nonsense didn't run long. this guy kept attempting to inject cringeworthy Spanish dialogue into the mix, and once that accomplished absolutely nothing he then semi-demanded that Bell walk over and sign one autograph for a kid from Windsor (next to Detroit on the other side of the border) to prove that he's a nice guy who loves children. Bell said he would sign just one, then he had to go. but this guy had one last trick up his sleeve. he then asked him to look into the camera and say, "Marty show me the highlights," and an increasingly annoyed Bell looks at him and says, "Why do you want me to say that?"

    from beginning to end it was amateur hour journalism
