Speculation: 2023-24-25 Sharks Roster Discussion

[Patty Ice]

Stay on theme here, it's either Deer or Commando.

What about a Deer Hunter?

I like Sheng, I think he does a pretty good job. I think like many journalists, they have personal relationships with the players and coaches and that can understandably make it hard to be strictly objective. He's privy to a lot more than he can actual report. I don't fault him for that, and don't want him to be Larry Brooks.

Right, to pretend that I would say half the things about Ferraro, Goodrow, or Kunin that I do on here if I had to face them every day at work, had a personal relationship with them, and depended on them to do my job would be disingenuous.

Don't get me started on JD and various tics while talking or even listening. God love him, he's a passionate fan but it's makes Locked On a hard listen.

The JD drinking game: One beer each time he says "all that fun stuff" and one shot each time he says "player name> doing <player name> things

Hooray for alcohol poisoning!

While sharing his own opinions I think at least on the podcast sheng is also sometimes slightly playing devils advocate to some degree so it's not just 2 talking heads giving ridiculously over the top hot takes while screaming the entire time

Like if the narrative is that Goodrow is worthless or Celebrini is already on track to be Crosby 2.0, he's not gonna completely shit on someone for having that take but he will give reasons to slow it down... This makes sense since he's really not a sharks fan that bleeds teal, it's his job

 

[Kcoyote3]

My take is I like everyone

I'm going to make you unable to unsee something.

If you watch the YouTube videos, next time he has a guest, watch the number of times he nods his head...but for the what can never be unseen...notice how EVERY time he does, he rolls his eyes into the back of his head like a great white shark about to lay his teeth into your juicy flesh.

No, he’s the f***ing bush behind them, of course he’s the deer. You’ve seen him skate, he looks like a baby deer out there half the time.

Gotcha!

PS - I’m just gonna keep posting Commando gifs until the mods make me stop.

Commando was a formative movie in my child hood!

Such an awesome scene. Up there with Predator's "Stick around"

Predator a top-5 action movie all-time

 

[DG93]

My take is I like everyone

 

[matt trick]

Please tell me this is a trailer, and I'll be able to see this on the West End shortly?

Also got to love that there were two US Governors in one fine film!

Sheng is great and I will hear no naysayers

I hate being critical of guys who are putting themselves out there, but I think JD would make an amazing producer - he has good ideas, good guests, good episode topics… but being a good producer and a good host are two very different things and I really appreciate his podcast but it’s been definitely hard to listen to sometimes.

He needs to just spend a summer taking some radio host/acting classes so we don’t have to hear “type of situation” said 300 times in 23 minutes. It’s a skill that needs practice.

It’s actually why I miss Brodie on the after show, he’s a very likable, very easy to listen to host. But he is also very trained and it’s apparent.

That Kyle (I think was his name) was annoying, but the Locked On podcast hasn’t been the same since he left. Can’t listen to JD alone. He’s fine with another host.

Oh I found Kyle unbearable. JD is a smart guy and has good content - I agree he’s much better with a co-host. He’s had a few folks on from other Locked On podcasts and it’s usually much better.

I mean, I appreciate the podcast and his work and all, don’t want to be ungrateful to the dude.

I gave up on JD without Kyle pretty damn fast so didn’t know he has had some guest hosts on. I didn’t like Kyle as an individual, but thought they meshed well together. It’s like with Teal Town - I don’t really like AJ, but he and the guy he does The Pucknologists with I like as a duo. They are moderately entertaining even though AJ can be an ass. Jules is a decent host when she isn’t drunk. Dana is annoying as hell.
