They should have stuck to telephones.
I hope the CRTC tells them to piss off.


I don't know about fisticuffs but he is prone to snark.

'' snark '' eh? Like the sound of that,menacing! reminds me of shark for some reason, an irrational phobia of mine

About time...
They have a number of pitfalls to avoid if they don't want to end up with the same issues down the road. I'm really not sure what they can do about the Leaf Centric bias but if they don't address it properly nothng will change. One of the first things they need to reconsider is giving every fricking Leafs game National coverage what a farce. Do they even consider how many people have cut their cable and can only pull up CBC OTA. Non Leafs fans get the shaft in a lot of provinces.

MacLean literally made me die of cringe multiple times last year.

That Queen intro was one of the cringiest moments in TV history, let alone Sports TV.

there is so many better ones out there to run that show. in fact look how many ladies are doing just that on TSN. SN needs to step up

MacLean has overstayed his welcome and Botterill just hasn’t cut it. Hrudey is boring and cliched. I’d vote to keep Bieksa, bring in new talents. And tone down the gambling ads. There ought to be legislation to force them to do it if they won’t do it voluntarily. Cabbie is annoying AF.

agreee

bott is so boring and dumb.. those gambling ads should be controled way better.

Maybe Botterill is better suited to coaching? I don’t know but there have to be better talents out there.

OR a foot model

MacLean is a weasel and the whole crew including Elliot are so hard to watch/endure,I will say that Bieksa is okay but I wouldn't mind seeing them all go. Bring on Bizznasty and spice things up a bit, I want to be entertained not drowned in the other crap that they tried to integrate into a freakin hockey broadcast.

As far as women go, I think Cheryl pounder is top of the class.

If this speculation is true, then I guess david amber gets the bump to main host, which is fine. Bieksa is going to be tough to replace though.

I agree. Out of the bunch, Bieska is who I'd keep. Guy is funny and can offer some insight as he stopped playing not long ago. So his analysis has a more modern take.

Yup Tessa and Cheryl are light-years better.

What I found Funny was Biesksa was starting to sound as dumb as the rest of them as his tenure grew. Kind of reminds me of the old l'Antichambre when the cone of dumbness decended on any panel memeber who started out halfway smart.

Stupidity by association. Probably the basis of some of the oldest proverbs.

They should have given MacLean the boot as an enabler when they Dumped Cherry.

[Runner77]

Oh well …

Tessa!!!! To the 10th Power!!!!!

OR a foot model

Yikes!!

 

[angusyoung]

Tuned into a demand interview with JP O'Connor,sounds like Laval will be interesting with so much new blood coming in. A quick glance at all the bodies Montreal has and Laval,does all the players that not make the cut go to the ECHL?

 

[angusyoung]

Oh well …

Stupid well! Maybe it wasn't used correctly?

I can confirm. I was never a Marinaro listener, but his podcast is quite entertaining.
