Plus you're older than I thought if you were really saying such things at Eddie's birth. Eddie was a one trick pony with his 'Hey, I know, I'll host it' style, that worked well (Miners) and not so well (Footy Show from Germany). I liked the fact that in true 00 Nine style they are not replacing - gee he must have been doing a really bang up job if they don't need anybody in his place. Reminds me of The Simpsons: Lenny: We had a real hard time replacing you Homer Insert shot of a chicken/carbon rob/brick on a rope at Homer's work station.

Oh that and his uncanny ability to buy shows from the US that were about to be cancelled! More footy show, less Sopranos thats what Eddies contribution was.

Beat that, Mr One-up-manship. Wait. No. I said it when he was born. Yes, that's right. When Eddie was born I said "now there is a child who should never grow up to be the head of a TV network or it will cause huge problems." Take that! Dude, I said it when he took the job.

I've been on this for months and whenever I have there's been immediate groans and pooh-poohing. I think you need to listen back to the tapes, Josh.

And he did allow for people to see that nine was crap most of the time (watch SBS people, its better). He did contribute the word “boned” to the vocabulary.
