It was kinda a tense week, especially in Toronto, the past seven days, so I thought I’d try and cut the tension a bit with a pretty hilarious vid that appeard on Canada’s Rick Mercer Report last year.

Mercer has a program on CBC up here that is kinda a mesh between Conan O’Brien, Stephen Colbert and a feature based legit news broadcast. It’s actually pretty funny most nights, and I’m not usually too into the comedic stuff CBC runs.

Anyways, Mercer checked in with the Toronto Rock last year and got a little Lacrosse 101 from the likes of Jim Veltman, Dan Ladouceur and Ian Rubel. It seriously is super funny, especially when Rubes rocks the hell outta Mercer into the boards. Also make sure you note how truly terrified Mercer is when Jimmy tells him that he’s gotta protect his kidney area in a game. All good stuff, mainly cuz Mercer is either getting hit or dropping a pass during the Rock’s shoot-around. Pretty much him screwing up (his work around the crease is nothing short of awesome!!).

Sure some of you have seen this, but I know a lot haven’t, so give it a watch below.

Bonus Clip: Although it’s not lacrosse, check out a pretty good vid of former Maple Leaf tough guy Tie Domi appearing on Mercer’s Celebrity Tip segment. Watch vid here…
