I think I know what would Rob Ford's post-political career would be aside from being a football coach: a sketch comedian!
I really don't see the need to fault him. One tends to walk down the right side of hallways. It looked like it really hurt ... I'd think many would say something similar.I think what is most telling about the Ford video, is that Ford had a clear, open pathway, right down the middle of the hall, yet he foolishly, looks down and walks into the camera of the cameraman, standing against the wall, and he has the audacity to blame the cameraman. lol Then he angrily drops the F-bomb, while storming off in a huff. What a class act. Yep, that's our mayor.
There's is so much stuff one can criticize Ford for, I don't see the need to go after him for this.With Ford, you get ZERO accountability and very little transparency. In this day and age, that's just unacceptable.

CITY TV (whose cameraman it was) explained it this morning kinda apologetically. Their cameraman was moving along at the front of the scrum....the force of the "crowd" got him jammed up against the wall and he had nowhere to go......he stopped suddenly, the mayor kept walking (as did everyone else) and the gap between the camera and the mayor's head closed suddenly.
Their report had a sort of "unavoidable accident" tone to it and that seemed reasonable.
I doubt anyone would have given this a second thought if Mr Ford were not always doing something stupid. Give a Mayor a bad name and all that ....
Why was he looking down, not forward to see where's he's going?
Bright lights on the top of the cameras make a lot of people do this. He can't really look forward without staring into all the lights on all the cameras.
Mayor Rob Ford grabbed a paint roller Wednesday morning to help cover graffiti on a Pizza Pizza restaurant in Scarborough.
The event was to publicize the Clean Toronto Together campaign, which targets litter and graffiti.
“Everybody’s had enough of the graffiti,” Ford said. “We’re fighting back.”
After helping to paint over the wall — which will soon be covered with a mural featuring cats and an octopus — Ford handed out free pizza to appreciative high school students on their lunch breaks.
Ford, who is known for coaching high school football, encouraged the students from Neil McNeil Catholic Secondary School to have their principal call his office if they want help setting up a football team.
I love how graffiti will be covered by a mural Art truly is in the eye of the beholder.
