Did he pronounce it "Tee Emm Zed"?

@RockLobster @tigervixxxen Are you guys going to address Brad Mays comments on your pods and do you think you have bully pulpit enough to get a response out of him or request an interview?

Pod? What pod?

 

[Hasbro]

Pod? What pod?

I was under the impression your rambling monologues on the 16th Street mall were being recorded.

Somebody needs to do one of those phone pranks that they're tricking politicians into.

Trick Brad May's agent or somebody into thinking Spittin Chiclets wants to do a phone interview, and then a few minutes in they just start ripping into him for being a piece of shit in a heavy Boston accent.

Anyone notice that Altitude is now completely gone from Comcast, and now during games, Altitude only says bring back the games Dish?

I did notice that (the 'gone from Comcast' part).
Guess it'll be quite a while still before I get to watch Avalanche hockey.

Im pretty sure I saw a comcast banner during the game. It was a totally different design that the dont block my avs but I'm like like 98% sure.

 

[wayninja]

Yeah, there's definitely still comcast banners during the game. They are along the top in white on black. They stopped doing the ones on the side that forced the screen resolution down a while ago. Those ones pissed me off so bad.

Comcast files motion to dismiss Altitude Sports lawsuit

Comcast spokeswoman Leslie Oliver said in a statement to The Denver Post. “We think it’s unfair to our customers who do not want to watch the games to overpay to subsidize a network that has numerous distribution options in addition to Comcast, such as other video service providers, online video channels and directly to consumers.”

This is the same company that just increased their tv fees by 57% due to "rising costs."

Comcast raising local TV fees 57% in January; Altitude Sports missing from 2020 lineup

Do they truly think that people are this dumb? They drop their "regional sports" fee by $1.25/month, but increase their other fees by almost $7/month and expect us to believe that they are protecting us from overpaying?

And from a company with so much integrity too.

Yes.

 

[henchman21]

Yes.

And they are correct.

 

[Pokecheque]

And they are correct.

Yep.

 

[Ararana]

And they are correct.

Beat me to it by five minutes

 

[wayninja]

And they are correct.

They aren't though. Maybe some, but only those willingly misinformed.

 

[henchman21]

So the vast majority of people...

Lauren 2.0 and Rachel must have known each other before the latter joined the Avalanche. They have friends in common in media, including, unfortunately, Carley McCord, who was recently killed in a tragic plane crash. They also hang out a lot with Taylor McGregor, who used to work for the Rox.

It's always cool to learn that two people you don't actually know have mutual friends who you don't know who they are at all. Thanks!

The Athletic reaches $500 million valuation in sign investors are bullish on subscriptions

 

[Pokecheque]

Well...just got done recording a fan segment for Locked On Avalanche. I'm told it'll be up Friday. Can't wait for everyone to listen to me blather incessantly with my stringy nasally voice!

 

[The Merchant]

Cool man. The host for that pod is pretty cringe, but I'll be sure to check that one out

 

[Pokecheque]

Yeah, we'll see how it went. At times I felt like I blathered incessantly and talked over him a couple times but overall I think it went okay. Chris is a pretty nice guy. We're apparently going to touch base later on to see how many of my "predictions" panned out.

The invite to do one of these is open to any Avs fan BTW. He actually hit me up via DM before I even knew he was doing them. I really liked the one he did with our old friend Avalangelist.
