TSN 690 & Other Montreal sports media Thread VI

[sheed36]

I skipped the first 90 minutes of Marinaro's show this morning hoping I'd miss out on his daily crapping on Price but nope it's still going on. Is Tony gonna keep up this Carey crapfest every day for the next 8 years?

Tony plays to his audience. Price puts up a shut out next game and he will go not he radio talking about how great Price is and how he told all of us that Price is the best etc...

His opinion changes in the wind.

It's almost as if you've never heard of Marinaro before.

Oh I've heard of him before but after a while it just gets tiring to listen to every single day and I now find myself tuning his show out more and more. This daily crapping on Price right now is pretty much what he suddenly started doing to Subban in the months before Subban was traded. We're all fully aware that Price is struggling Tony but you don't have to beat it to death every single day.

LOL yes of course he will. He does whatever gets him attention.

Well if Price is to be groomed for trade chip then the Media must begin bashing the value into the ground before MB beats it further before the trade lol

BUT Price is not going anywhere, MB will never trade him and his contract is crazy, Seattle would be a posibility but I dont see that happening either . I still think Price can rebound , maybe not to Hard Price but back to a good goalie.

A lot of Goalies are sucking this year , I think I saw the average save % is something like .904 this year lol

Tony is just being Tony and being Loud and not entertaining and change his opinion in 30 minutes before telling everyone to buy season tickets for the Impact to save the team

There is a rumor that 91.9FM will soon cease to exist

I’m just one (former) listener, but Tony is the main reason why I just gave up listening to 690 daily.

Terrible station anyways. CKAC was alright.

Price looking lively tonight.

Can I like SV post 100 times please?

 

[Inkling]

Man, that 'heads-up' advert is annoying. There's also that insurance ad that strangely seems to refer to the Habs as a 'hockey league', and the ad that is calling all "Bantam hockey teams", and pronouncing the word 'Bantam' like they've never seen the word before.

Thankfully we still have the Electrika jingle. My fave.

 

[WhiskeySeven*]

Tony thinks he's a star and the rest of the Montreal media space just encourages it. He's a really low quality showman even without taking into account how awful his hockey takes are.

 

[Adam Michaels]

That sucks. I enjoyed being able to flip back and forth between TSN690 and 91.9 Sports during my commutes. There are hosts and guests I enjoyed on both stations and I'd tune in to listen. Sometimes TSN690 had the better content and other times I enjoyed 91.9 Sports more.

Apparently, they will remain an all sports station for the next few months before the transition.

Yup, same for me. Nilan ruined the rest of my radio experience. I don't even know who to listen to in the office any more.

There will be only one other alternative to 690 and it'll be 98.5FM, with their part-time sports format. I don't know why a franco 24-hour all sports format can't survive in a market that is what, 80% francophone.

Nilan should had never host his own show. As na ex-player "expert", OK as a host, hell no.

This is a very good question

I wondered the same thing when 110% was canceled. Watching that show after a bad loss or playoff failure was cathartic for me.

I used to like shows where debates were animated and emotions were high. Now, it's all overly sanitized by a band of brothers who are far too cordial -- it makes for dull TV.

Jean Perron on 110% was pure gold.

Oh my, Renaud ...
