Toronto Sports Media Discussion Thread - v6 (2021 Edition)

Well people don't like to hear 24/7 blm praise show. People turn to radio for entertainment. Not for some wokeness hour.

Well these people can always try to learn to code.

That's too bad, I liked her, do you know who's taking her 7pm timeslot on Newstalk 1010?

No, I don’t know.

... I sincerely doubt that’s why all these cuts have been made.

And this is why MJ is awesome. One of a few people in the hockey world with diverse thinking. Majority just say analytics are terrible and provide no good reason why.

Dan's fait was done in the summer when he had the melt down ... TSN just sat back for a bit to not look it make obvious .

 

[Kurtz]

Always felt Jay carried Dan.

which meltdown

 

[Jozay]

which meltdown

Weird situation with his child and wife.

I think he thought his child was kidnapped but the wife just took her. Something like that.

 

[Stand Witness]

I use to prefer TSN over SN and it wasn’t close. SN has invested heavily in a better product and now is delivering. TSN has been going downhill and COVID cuts are really starting to show they are struggling.

I like a lot of the TSN hockey crew more, but SN is winning everything else.

Don't like seeing anyone lose their jobs. Side note, the most underrated media person in Toronto is Stephen Brunt. Really smart guy. When he speaks there is always substance behind his words. I have lot of time for him.

He is very, very smart and knows his stuff. He also knows ow to talk on radio and tv. Some know their stuff but can't Pierre Mcguire).

So, does Dan move over to SN? I’m not sure the episode he had in the summer will help him..?

 

[stickty111]

It's odd and frankly cute that Andi is saying that now it's a lazy narrative to say Nylander doesn't try in games true or not, when Andi also had that narrative about him.

She can't call out others for using a narrative that wasn't true when you believed in it too.

 

[stickty111]

Wow Natasha is also gone. I thought she was good. I like her more then Jenn

 

[Drew311]

Lol Odog is the classiest guy in sports media.

 

[TheShape]

Dan O'Toole back on Twitter for some more poor me tweets. This guy isn't doing himself any favours, what a child.

 

[Stigma]

Lol Odog is the classiest guy in sports media.

Details? More wall-squat/deuce dropping stories? Strippers? LOL

Nope he burped on air right in the middle of an interview while the guest was talking. He thought his mic was turned off lol.

 

[LeafsNation75]

Dan O'Toole is upset at TSN for being fired when you look at these tweets from him.

 

[forecheck]

Take your medicine donkey ... Ya got fired- Part of the game - Don't burn your bridge behind you - Media industry is small- Dumb!

 

[Golden_Jet]

Dan O'Toole is upset at TSN for being fired when you look at these tweets from him.

Quite different than Natasha’s tweet.

 

[Nineteen67]

Kyper, Grapes, McCown, Mallard and many others all have regular podcasts and/or YouTube shows which is costing TSN and SN viewers.
