Well I don’t think he got fired because they used his name in the intro coming back from commercial break.

Athletic article mentions he’s on leave

Hi anyone know whats going on with O'Neil? We had one good talk radio show in the city now even that is going to be trash

2nd round in forever and O'Neil is not doing talk radio anymore. He also removed TSN from his twitter account

 

[SprDaVE]

It seems like a personal matter. The 2 tweets you link say it's personal and that he's OK. Not sure what else needs to be said.

 

[Gary Nylund]

Huh. They didn't say he'd be back so ... some possibilities:

1)
He has some personal stuff to deal with that's serious enough that he may not be back soon, or may not be back at all.

2)
He's on forced leave, being disciplined for whatever reason and it's not clear if he'll be welcome to return.

3)
He's on forced leave, being disciplined for whatever reason, he's pissed about it and it's not clear if he even wants to return.

4)
Something else that doesn't occur to me at the moment.

I hope he comes back. I didn't like him at first but he's grown on me and those guys have some chemistry so the show works pretty well. Someone new in his place might turn out OK, but it might also turn out really badly.

ugh why couldnt it of been Noodles on long term leave

When I was commuting from work I loved listening to those guys. Haven’t listened much lately, but hope nothing serious and he’s back soon

 

[SmoggyTwinkles]

I stopped listening to sports talk........a long time ago and have no regrets, don't ever wonder what they might be talking about.....

But I truly hope O'Dog is ok. I never had a problem with that guy. Best wishes there.

Yeah when I was listening, 90+% of the time that was on the way home from work. Driving to work around 6AM I listened to the morning show on the other sports channel, that was like a million times better then Landsberg and Coliacovo or whoever those guys were. But now working from home, I sometimes watch Overdrive if it's an interesting sports day, I have nothing better to do and I remember that that show exists LOL.

No more Jerry??

 

[Gabriel426]

Hope he and his family is okay. Seems like a personal matters

 

[ihadtochangethename]

Is Shanahan also on leave smh, talk about timing.

 

[Clark4Ever]

I hope he comes back.

 

[DaveMatthew]

Even as a Sens, I'm a daily listener to Overdrive. Those 3 have outstanding chemistry. Remove O-Dog and it's not the same show.

Leafs finally win a round and the guy can't even talk about it. That sucks.

 

[LeafSteel]

I hope he and his family are alright.

Not much more there is to say.

 

[Rob Brown]

Maybe just don't wish it on any of them instead of picking who you'd rather go through a difficult period.

 

[3blizzard4]

Fired?

Family issues?

Suspended?

Quit?

On leave?

Cancelled?

All speculation.

 

[BigBlu]

Might be doing Bet Rivers commercials soon…

 

[Willchel Marlynder]

Could be moving onto something else. People will take leaves of work before starting a new job
