The guests were the best part; overusing, "here's the deal" to start far too many points was a put-off. IMO, not a bad show, particularly on those rare times when Campbell was away.

Those guests or similar facsimiles can be heard via another host. Hopefully, PJ O’Connor gets the gig. At least the guy can coherently string together intelligent comments.

At least Melnick did briefly mention Nilan before signing off tonight and said he understands some people being angry over the situation, but said it really wasn't on TSN690. He mentioned how much Nilan meant to him and wished Nilan well and said he has no doubt Nilan will land on his feet and be fine. Here's hoping Mitch.

Good luck Knuckles. Onward and upward. :thumbu:

Whatever happened to Morency? He used to do segments on 690 every so often after he made up with Melnick. I haven't heard from him in years.

TSN 690 can go piss up a rope. Knuckles deserves better than that. If the man has a medical reason, he shouldn't be shunned. This is setting a dangerous president
I don’t think he did, he’s just anti-vax from my understanding

Im sure Knuckles has myriad health issues from his playing days, that are compounded with age.
The there would’ve been no issues for a medical doctor to provide reasoning towards an exemption, and there would’ve been 0% chance Bell would’ve canned him for not being fully vaccinated as they wouldn’t want to to chance a lawsuit they would outright lose

The fact his own buddy Melnick came out and said it’s not on TSN690 says all there is to say…

If you are older with a myriad of health issues during a global pandemic and refuse a vaccine that has been proven over and over to lower the effects of said virus, then your health can’t be that important to you.

I leave it up to the professionals, like his Doctor, who likely recommended he get the shot, as he refused to give him an exemption.
Sure, but the reality is that you don't know that. You also don't know if the station ignored his request for exemption. You don't know if has already been exposed earlier & has immunity, making the injections unnecessary. The basis for the mandate is also false. Unvaccinated or vaccinated, you are able to transmit. So to call him a danger to others is just a baseless lie, since you know the have they are all vaxxed. In addition, with omicron being the dominant variant, serious illness is much less likely. Pushing mandates is just wrong, as now Ireland, UK, France, Switzerland, Italy, Finland, etc are dropping it along with restrictions.

Take this shit to the COVID thread please. Bell wouldn't have let him go if there was a chance for a wrongful dismissal suit. Nilan's been praising antivax sports figures for many months.
