I don't need negative or positive topics from 1290. I would like premises for discussion to have a logical starting point. Not " I READ ALL THE ADVANCED STATS EVERY SINGLE DAY BUT IGNORE THEM AND FEEL OTHERWISE. MY OPINION HAS MORE WEIGHT THAN THE EVIDENCE BECAUSE I COVERED THE MOOSE FOR A COUPLE SECONDS AND I KNOW HOW IT IS".

Yeah, something like that. If you are going to argue against something that makes some sense, you should present a counter argument that makes at least as much sense. Constantly saying "I git all that, but here's my take which totally ignores all that and I don't really have any logical explanation for why I'm ignoring all that sensible stuff but..." gets old fast.

Perhaps because 99% of the media are brown nosers?? I like that Friesen has the balls to say what he does.

He doesn't always have to be contrarian for the sake of it. I feel the same about Edmunds and Munz and Toth going out if their way to be overly positive.

How about just being insightful and informative and interesting, instead of trying to act like a maverick? Wiecek was intolerable.

lol, Toth on covid just now. Classic. "The difference between us and the US is that we know it's coming...but it's already there." (with the ever-present "I git this but..." and "I git that but..." of course)

Canada has about 80 cases. The US about 800. Canada's population is roughly a tenth of the US. It's here just like there Jim.

He's just not a numbers guy lol...

Westwood to Beyak "the Oilers had two powerplays and went, as you might say, bang bang!"

Beauty, I was laughing. :laugh:

Good ole Dennis Bunyuk. Between his ahhhhhhhhhhh's and uhhhhhhh's never has someone talked so much without saying anything.

Steve1964 · Mar 11, 2020

Who is the most important member of the Jets?
Westwood : Hellybuck
Rewucki : I agree, it's Hellybuck.
Toth : I think for sure it's between those two.

Jim: We are taking the Coronvirus seriously.... i just am saying it needs to be handled like the flu if a player contracts it

He sees the stats every morning just like you and everyone else he just feels differently.

Huh? lol...it's got nothing to do with how he feels about the virus. It's about his interpretation of the numbers. He's saying there's something different about Canada compared to the US situation. There isn't.

I guess my Toth impersonation is weak.

that what he usually says when it comes to his “hot takes” on hockey.

lol, ah ok gotcha.

Westwood proclaims how concerned he is with Corona as he and his family did not attend the last Jets game because of it.
Then Munzy comes on and says he is not concerned at all. Blah, blah, blah. Everything will be fine. The Jet's doctors and medical staff have everything under control
Munz's arm could be broken and hanging by a thread and he would say there really isn't anything wrong, he doesn't feel any pain, looks good.
I just shook my head. This guy will never criticize anyone or anything. Alot of talk about nothing. It's obvious he doesn't want to ruffle any feathers and knows where his bread is buttered.
Safe but sure is boring and not factual.

Channelcat · Mar 12, 2020

Munz is an idiot

SensibleGuy · Mar 12, 2020

"The NHL is saying let's just take a week, a day even, to delve into this..." Jim loves him some delving! :laugh:

Can one “delve” into a pandemic? Our Man Tothie can.

Excruciating. He’s that guy on the plane who insists on endless, aimless, nonsensical conversation even tho you have your noise-cancelling headphones on and your eyes closed.

TS Quint · Mar 12, 2020

Toth talking about his criteria for the Hart at 715 was pure nonsensical word salad. I think he was having a stroke.

cbcwpg · Mar 12, 2020

The last people on earth that anyone should be listening to about anything to do with Covid-19 virus... are these guys on TSN.

DRW204 · Mar 12, 2020

Jim Toth should really not be speaking on the details of the virus. Guy spreads misinformation and is uninformed on basic NHL on-goings can't imagine his knowledge on the virus is anything up to par

wabagee · Mar 13, 2020

Well, I guess the guys on 1290 can start talking about stuff they actually know about now?
