When I get my like function back, I'll come back for this post.The media can just eat bread for all I'm concerned.
I like Noodles but that was painful to listen to this morning (From Wales so listen to it on podcast)Noodles needs to get hit by a TTC bus.
You can hear how painful it is for him to defend his incorrect points as he can't admit Toronto outplayed Boston.
Noodles trying to talk anything besides hockey is the most painful thing I’ve heard in my life on radio.... he adds nothing to the show other than a leafs bias and a goalie is god attitude.Noodles needs to get hit by a TTC bus.

It felt like he was trying to play devil's advocate to bring some balance to the show but it was difficult. He had no real ground on which to stand.Noodles needs to get hit by a TTC bus.

To the poster who said Noodles seems like he has anger management issues, just look no further to how his career ended.

One thing that did strike me is he seemed to place a lot of weight to about a 10 or 15 minute span in the 2nd. Felt a bit like he watched it as a coach. Freak out about a mistake but more or less overlook a good play. And he used to be a coach.
Yappiddy, yappiddy, yap, yap, yap! "Let's open up the pone lines and talk about how great these Leafs are! It's The New and Improved Fergie Olver Leafs Show- How 'bout those Maple Leafs! It's the Fergie Olver Leafs Booster Show" All love all the time with a few calls to fire Dubas because he is bringing too much professionalism to the Leafs front offce resulting in all of this embarrassingly excessive skill on the team - and then all gushing love for Leafs Yappiddy, yappiddy, yap, yap, yap
There needs to be balance, can't just be Leafs Praise on Leafs Lunch! Note- Boosterism is not journalism, but Slagism isn't journalism either! There is problem when objectivity goes out and debate is kind of contrived for radio and perhaps professional broadcasters do it all the time and we do not notice, but phony objectivity simply to have some debate where none is really needed maybe falls on the producers too, and maybe they need to move it on somehow, perhaps find a different way to analyze the game or have a debate- from a different approach!
Do note that the Leafs PR department has the good sense to keep everything boring as can be, with the Bull Durham cliche list fully memorized and rightfully so, and so controversy sort of has to be made up, and why not a designated Leafs hater to do it? Why not? It's an important job, and fans can take sides etc. The trick is to find legitimate criticism : Boston looked scary when they got their cycle game going- that would be a fair point worth talking about, raises concern. On the plus side, Leafs victories do not have the newsworthiness, generally speaking, and maybe stories about victories do not get the creative juices flowing as an exciting opportunity for postmortem , um, soul searching. Perhaps Overdrive and sports radio in general is more about opinion pieces and op-ed type stories than proposing a hypnotists and having a thesis statement and fact based analysis the way perhaps good objective journalism may. But hey, it's happened before - maybe I am full of crap!

Just catching up on yesterday's show.
-Noodles trying so hard to push his anti-Leafs agenda
-O shutting down any reference to analytics
Never change
Jesus you weren’t kidding. What was he thinking doing this?
Hope they smarten up and just fire Noodles. Has no hockey knowledge outside of goaltending. Adds nothing to the show.
Just add an anti leaf radio guy in place of him instead of this fool who claims be a realist, his fakeness to lie about his real feelings about the leafs are annoying. Brings the show down.
