TSN 690 & Other Montreal sports media (Part 8)

[Per Sjoblom]

Finally I can watch a game without getting angry on the color guy! He's an idiot.

 

[angusyoung]

He should know better than that,as if some even care about women.

 

[Habssince89]

Countless women would destroy Millbury at hockey on the ice and analysis off of it.

Hope him and every last caveman misogynist gets canned.

“Not even any women here to disrupt…your concentration,” Milbury said of the upside of the NHL bubble.

If that's the reason.. Then wow. Kinda funny actually.

Is he talking about the ice girls, Kathryn Tappen, or others?

No it's actually not. It's a pathetic comment from the "wife-bad" school of comedy.

Never ever say her name in reverse order

 

[TannedBum]

Yes, you can interpret it wrong if you try really hard. It's a trend nowadays.

Does he imply that normally players get distracted by women during playoffs?

Normally men get distracted by women. There's nothing more to it. Harmless "every day" joke.

I think if it's offensive it's largely against men because it implies men aren't mature enough to focus on the task at hand if sex is a possibility. That said, if this is what it takes to get Millbury out of hockey you go ladies.

Problem here is that there is a difference between making such a comment at the office vs the National TV

I think it is also offensive to the entire LGBTQ becuase it implies that men and other umm... orientations... are not good enough to distract hockey players.

Whatever it takes

You're in Jake Tapper territory.

Guy must have taken a ton of abuse growing up.

Naah. It's a compliment in it's simplest form.

 

[WeThreeKings]

Naah. It's a compliment in it's simplest form.

No.... no it isn't.

 

[peate]

Milbury must've spent too much time at Chez Parée. Blaming strippers for his ineptness.

 

[TannedBum]

No.... no it isn't.

Okay, please explain ? I really want to hear this.

 

[Habssince89]

Yes, you can interpret it wrong if you try really hard. It's a trend nowadays.

What's trending is no longer laughing at jokes that aren't funny. There's nothing to misinterpret here. The "joke" is at women's expense and ultimately just perpetuates stereotypes of both men and women.

This might seem like just a little comment but it's about having standards for public figures and frankly we can do better than Millbury, who's worthless as a commentator to begin with.

Widen your perspective a bit and see how being consistent with this kind of zero tolerance thing just gets us back to hockey, the matter at hand.

 

[Supersonic]

Millbury is an idiot not surprised.

That same comment has been made countless times regarding the bubble (and didn’t the NBA basically make that a rule for theirs?) but to say it on live air, you gotta figure you’re out

 

[Cole Caulifield]

No it's actually not. It's a pathetic comment from the "wife-bad" school of comedy.

I really hope you're a woman.

 

[Habssince89]

I really hope you're a woman.

Nope just a mature adult who sees women as people....

You go girl! Jesus motherforking shirtballs

It's a nothing comment about how young non-married men are focused on getting laid. It's a stereotype.. not every young man is like that but whatever.... God knows I am not a fan of Milbury but today's ¨cancel culture¨ and ¨get up in arms over nothing¨ is really sad.
