Tribute The Steve Dangle Thread

[Glove Malfunction]

Laughter brings out them endorphins and good for the soul!

I just want to know when he's gonna finish puberty.

I just want to know when he's gonna finish puberty.

Who? Dangle or Mitch Marner?

Dangle sounds it and Marner looks it.

See, we all think that.
Yet
There are a lot of copycats for other teams and NONE of them took off.

He has a natural camera presence, voice, and comfortable conversational aspect to him that makes these videos work. He knows what he is talking about most of the time and is pretty fair. He also gets across the frustration of a sports fan.
We have all been there.

I mean, if you think you can do it, give it a go. Make a self recorded video of you post the next Bruins game, then watch it back. I bet you will learn its a lot harder than it looks.

I meant to reply to this yesterday...

Steve "Dangle" Glynn's full-time job is this.

For his schtick to work, he has to watch every single Maple Leafs game - and pay attention. He needs to analyze, break down, and opine about every major event of the game. Not to mention produce a quality video. He's come a long way from his childhood bedroom at home to where he is now. He's literally a professional "fan" who eats, sleeps, and breathes Toronto Maple Leafs hockey. How many of us could give that much time to the Bruins? We all have real jobs and families. Who has the time to do what he does? I think his time-management is what impresses me the most. On game-night he's probably up until 3am making his videos.

God bless this poor soul.

I found him entertaining at first but tired of the routine. Snippets are fine but not the whole episode. He is making money in commercials now too. I am sure it is very time consuming.

The people who write Glynn off as just a guy who shouts and rants about the Leafs clearly haven't actually watched his videos beyond the odd snippet here and there, probably of things like the infamous Zamboni driver loss breakdown which aren't actually typical of the majority of his content. He knows more about hockey than at least 90% of us, and he's willed himself into a position of prominence in the Canadian hockey universe despite having no sporting, media or family pedigree through sheer effort. That takes a ton of diligence and talent.

 

[Bruinaura]

Excuses, excuses Steve

I was amused by the "again, with the poop" comments though.

I'm 12.

Absolutely this! Brilliant post as usual.

Steve Glynn is what we Americans used to call a “self made man.” He created his own business through hard work and determination. This thread has actually made me appreciate his work all the more.

And this to make the day perfect!

Best line "PUT REILLY WITH LILLIGRAN"! 12:15 ish mark.

 

[rfournier103]

Bwahhahahaha!!!

 

[Blowfish]

Not his best...but some good moments. "Do it for Pap"!

 

[Bruinaura]

I haven't heard him screech this much since the zamboni driver video

And I need a clip of him screaming "how many times do we have to go through this" to play at work sometimes

 

[KnightofBoston]

I just want to know when he's gonna finish puberty.

Oh please

 

[Glove Malfunction]

Oh please

You're saying his voice pitching doesn't sound like he's in the throes of puberty?

So funny...

 

[HumBucker]

Can't take this guy. Too over the top for me. It's like he's trying too hard.

 

[Ddawg]

Sounds just like a Leafs fan who has never witnessed a cup..

 

[SPLBRUIN]

We can all get a laugh out of him now but if the Leafs ever win a cup he would be insufferable,

 

[Ddawg]

I would rather have stands full of fans like Dangle with passion than a rink full of suits.

I just don't understand how you can last more than 1 second through the videos.

 

[Sheppy]

I just don't understand how you can last more than 1 second through the videos.

I can't. Even seeing the close up of his mug makes me want to german suplex myself into a lake.

 

[KnightofBoston]

I'm wondering why it's even your focus, to me he just does different silly voices constantly throughout his videos as per his entire shtick since he started

I understand why it's a focus for the middle schoolers I teach all day, they're all anxious about changes so they make corny, rude, immature jokes about it constantly to cover for their anxiety, which I understand. But I thought you were an adult.
