The Irony

“You’d think the country’s largest media market would have the very best talent covering its beloved national game.
Instead, we have the big two networks featuring some of the least likeable hosts, and pundits, in the industry.
On one, you have a complete homer starring alongside B-level talent. On another, a group of self-appointed experts who are often insufferable to listen to.
In Sportsnet’s case, this show has gone downhill from its flagship days featuring the likes of Millard, Kypreos and Maclean. A trio who, despite not agreeing with everything they had to say, had personality.
The current lineup featuring Marek and Bourne are akin to nails on a chalkboard, for me. It’s always a matter of when, not if, that I’ll make a decision to change the channel, whenever Marek is hosting the show.
Bourne always sounds like it’s his first day on the job. Continually mispronouncing names, or crafting ridiculous questions.
Get rid of Marek and Bourne. Get David Amber to host more. Get a co-host with a personality and resume that warrants listening to their opinions.
Being the former video guy for the Marlies, shouldn’t be enough.
The media covering the Raptors, are fantastic. The media covering the Jays, are fantastic. And yet for hockey and the Leafs, we get these clowns”

“Doug constantly snorts, forgets to aim his face at the mic, and rants about working conditions at Sportsnet. They complain about the producer, argue about things they should have organized before the show, etc. I prefer marek vs wyshynski an the backhand shelf.”

“Rename it leaf central at least people looking for a hockey podcast will know it's all about the leafs.
You might as well just put a leafs jersey on Millard and carry a leaf banner.
The one thing that will help this show is more Marek and less of the main three.”Read full review »
