Man there are some very slanted views on what each show is, mainly from the PTS crowd trying to pump that show up to be better or higher brow than it was.
In terms of overdrive not being great at other sports, PTS isn't either and unlike Mccown and many of his co-hosts, I think Overdrive does a decent job of realizing this. And really if I want an in-depth view on specific sports I have podcasts for those sports that blow PTS out of the water. I listened to both and can't say there is a difference when it comes to other sports for either in terms of quality of discussion.
In terms of the PHd versus juvenile nonsense, what I will say is listening to Overdrive is a hell of a lot more fun. There also is a lot more things that I look forward to, Gerry's, Ray, on Overdrive than PTS. I used to love the round table and a year ago would have had that above anything Overdrive, or anyone else did, but the past year if has become awful. They focus way too much on Bobs stupid tangents, have become way too much homers when it comes to the Raptors and Jays and the overall quality has really dropped, like the show in general.
