TSN Overdrive (and other Toronto Sports Media) 2018-19

[Daisy Jane]

They said Sale/Pelletier won it before. I am fine with Kingsbury winning it and I would have been fine with Virtue/Moir winning it as well but I think Kingsbury deserved it more because he has been winning a ton.

that's what i thought. lol.
but it was ages ago so i wasn't sure.

and for sure. me too. (re: Kingsbury)
it just burns my cookies that we always have this argument. media ignores all the am. athletes and claims people don't care (not so). then they get pissed when they win once every four years because reasons. like. geeze.

Leafs are the best, they are my hockey team!
You can be a fan of all sports, and want the Lou Marsh not just be for NHL hockey and that is not a slight
We are blessed that practically every night there is a Toronto game to watch, or at least to me it seam
Leafs! Raptors! Blue Jays! Let's rejoice and take delight

Okay, I can't stand Landsberg/Carlo so I listen to 590 in the morning. Anybody else hear the two girls at 9? Painful. Fortunately I was almost at the office.

I like the show when they're actually talking about hockey. Not a fan when it's anything else or plugging 5 Hour Energy.

 

[DoobieDubas]

Really like Darren Dutchyshen on Overdrive. They should make him permanent.

Thats my boy. Does the best going over hockey highlights.

Im pretty sure the younger one is on like 7 days a week. I definitely heard her Saturday hosting. I think shes an intern? Whats happened to Blair?

Dont like him much at all to be honest

Noodles is an idiot.

Noodles is an idiot.

That guy, hes a hell of a player though.

"....ya, but did you know Leon Draisatl is a superstar?"

Andi Petrillo said she would protect Frederik Andersen second in an expansion draft. That’s a good example of the knowledge of our media talent. I don’t even hate her but god damn what an awful take.

Jeff Marek and Chris Johnston are excellent too on Sportsnet. Marek doesnt shine hosting on TV, its in his podcasts where he really comes through.

I've really really tried to like First Up but I honestly can't stand it.

Honestly I think jeff marek is my least favourite out of everyone. His voice is cringe worthy and he doesn't really add anything that hasnt already been said 1000000 times. Chris Johnston is a nice guy but really doesnt know anything either.

Disagree on both. But Ive listened to them far more on podcasts then on TV.

Honestly im not going to argue because im not actually sure about mareks background its just as soon as i hear his voice on tv during the intermission i go full cringe mode

 

[therealkoho]

his cousin is Dave Nonis

which meant jack

TSN and Dreger were smart enough to use that as an angle to give Dreg cred, which we all know to this day is horsepuckey

truth is they're second cousins by marriage and didn't know each other growing up

Simmons is a journalist and who's opinions are taken seriously, and are not a Toy
Kingsbury wins, he's the King of the Hill
and certainly not some chain smoking kid from Sudbury
2 full minutes on 1050 without talking Leafs- where are we going to get our fill?
