TSN 690 & Other Montreal sports media Thread VII

Damn... Profits before interests and taxes.

Let the real sport channels dominate the market. Don't even try to copy or to surpass your concurrent when you're just an average channel... I'm not feeling bad for them.

TVAS paid too much for the rights and their whole business model was pretty much reliant on the existence of the Nordiques.

They could just run with Dany, Louis, Denis and some color guy and it would be okay. Way too many heads bringing zero actual content.

And Quebecor is litterally running a disinformation campaign at this point.

One of Robertson's lines from that night:

The problem with Tony wearing that track suit or sweatpants is that you can always see about 4” of f-ing ass crack. The ‘vertical smile’. If you work with Tony for one hour, you see more crack than Whitney Houston did in the last year of her life.

Now I feel sick to my stomach. Thanks.

Btw, my reply to you was my 9,999th post, you nearly made history.

Renaud Lavoie left for TVA Spanre.

 

[Runner77]

TVA Spanre had the Lightning leading their series, 3-0 ...

Never change.

You guys hear Basu on 690 this morning? Said he is working on big story concerning our goalie. Any rumours about what it might be?

Arpon Basu is not really a rumours guy or someone to break big news. It's more likely an interview he had with Price about how he's getting older, wants to win the cup, etc..

Thanks for that! had to listen to that after finding it. Spit it out man! ffs! I can read faster than he speaks,so painful! Says nothing that we don't already know,yet gets paid to do this?lucky guy! and it takes how long to write and publish a story? Good god Jim,as Bones would say. lol.

 

[ahmedou]

Some buzz in the radio for nothing interesting...

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

Damn... Profits before interests and taxes.

Im so glad tva sports is doing bad , They are so bad in every aspect of anything.
Felix Seguin and Patrick Lalime are complete trash
Dave Morissette knows nothing about hockey
Renaud Lavoie is garbage
Louis Jean (meh)
Michel Bergeron is trying to be a wannabe Don Cherry.

Just give back NHL playoffs and all habs access to RDS like back then. Give Tva sports Impact and Alouettes or anything related to Soccer.

Tva sports is such a shit show and everything for PKP to lose money is good in my mind. This guy is an absolute Pejorative Slur

Friedman reporting Scott Mellanby interviewed for Oilers GM job.

It will be his next article. Doubt it is breaking news or Basu wouldn't risk somebody breaking it before him.

Wouldn't be surprised if he and or Sean Burke eventually get a chance as GM somewhere.

Yes you will. I'm counting on it.

Gallo and Campbell are awful. Yet everyone gives them more time and deference.

And I find it odd that Nilan has his own show timeslot yet he's not the one in control of it.

Gallo and Campbell are the biggest catastrophe that's happened to Montreal sports talk show. Especially when the two are on together, with Gallo being the more insufferable of the two idiots. God I'd pay real money if one day Nilan punched Gallo in the head, and I mean really hard.

About Nilan's show, I'm not surprised. Nilan has a show in name only. More often than not, he does a one- or two-week stint on Off the Cuff and then disappears, f***ing around the country, playing hockey or some shit, for a month - he's out more than he is in. Nice work if you can get it: showing up 50% of the time.

 

[OldCraig71]

Yes you will. I'm counting on it.

I have some great acquaintances here and you are certainly at the top of the list but tbh I am losing the desire to talk about the Bergevin habs. If by some chance he gets fired I will regain my optimism for the team but sadly I don't see it happening. Get rid of the God damn National Enquirer ads at the bottom of my page, it's stressing me out! How is your mafia neighbor?

Stop that negativity. You're our young Craig. Doesn't matter the age...

For one of the first times ever, I understand you completely. I am 71 years old man, I can't keep doing this.
