You mean the guy who berates anyone who has a different opinion from his own.

Maybe he's a nice guy outside of radio/TV, but his media personality, to me, is the worst out of all.

I'm starting to find him working his way into the Pierre Mcguire Hall of Fame. Perhaps his bold prediction last year: "MTL won't even win a game against the Toronto Maple Leafs" did it for me. He talks a lot, but he really doesn't say whole lot.
Dreger has become terrible and talks out of his ass. Sometimes I swear he doesn’t think before he speaks and Ray calls him out on some of it. Button tries to come off as a hard ass, but right after he’s finished his rant you hear him chuckle a nervous laugh. Get real man, no one believes you.
Dreger is insufferable, cut him out years ago. The guy comes across as if he's wearing a mask every time he speaks, I don't think I've ever heard anything insightful come out of his mouth when it comes to the actual game of hockey. Wouldn't surprise at all if he didn't even watch the sport.
I was disappointed to see Ray working with Dreger on their podcast. Dreger isn't anywhere near the same planet as Ferraro when it comes to analysis. He doesn't offer any at all.

I like Miller when he is calling games, especially the World Juniors. Considering how much I dislike most media personalities, that puts him fairly high on my list.

He's excellent as an announcer. When he isn't accouncing though, he acts extremely arrogant.
Also with Overdrive returning from Holidays tomorrow, Jamie's mood should be interesting with whats going on with the Oilers.

oooohh yeah, I may actually make a point to tune in to see that. How delicious it would be, real Leaf success coupled with Oiler failure. Me likey.
That’s why I hated how he is labeled as an “insider” especially when he was next to Bobby Mac. Guy isn’t in the same league as Bobby Margarita.
Re: Noodles. Holy shit guy never stops talking. Ever.
One of Noodles' many annoying habits is when he poses a question to the panel, gives no one else a chance to answer and proceeds to ramble on and on answering his own question.
Just soak up all the airtime.

Sportsnet 590 Morning show has to be the worst pile of crap they have served to date .... Cant listen to it... TSN Am show is marginally better but still bad ...

As Ennis/Brunt said, it's kind of ironic they got bought out by a newspaper... But hey, good for them I guess.
JD Bunkis, Ailish Forfar and Blake Murphy are such a horrible combination, there is no way that show can last
That morning show lasts 2 years, tops. Which I guess is a good run for the FAN 590 lol.

To be honest this is the most Annoying gimmick thing out there in South Western Ontario. IMO pretentious.
