Trust me, I agree with ya fellas... Not a fan. And definitely enjoy Diakun more... She's more straight forward. Doesn't try to be overly entertaining.

I can't stress enough... The "over the top" thing Kate is doing... It's not her... It's the producers. They're telling her to lean into that because they think it works. I'm 99% sure if you met her IRL, she'd be super reserved and chill (most media people have to be so amped up to be on air, that when you're off air, you come WAY down, to the point of almost depressed). So all I'm saying is it's highly unlikely she's making this choice. It's TSN telling her to do it.

It's not that Kate thinks this or that.... It's just a gimmick that the producers are making her do. It's an act and they seem to think it's entertaining.

I just sincerely hope these mocks end up being as nonsensical as they seem to be.... Not prioritizing OL/DL with early picks is a recipe for disaster.

Is the mic-ed up half hour show TSN does reaching anyone? I personally don't care for it, but again, it's not about reaching me. I'm already there. I'm curious if anyone else (especially younger) is into that particular feature...

Sitting at my desk and burst out laughing at this line...

Adapt or die, baby.... Adapt or die.

It's true... Radio is reaching the market that already exists. It's the same philosophy for booking half time shows... You're not appealing to the market you already have. You need to bring in the audience that isn't there... TikTok for marketing, and some hot young pop star that nobody over 40 has heard of for your half time show...

I just assume that's part of being one of those types... Ha ha.

It wouldn't surprise me if they're buddies. Hofer is from Manitoba (clearly) and they're both devout Christians, from my understanding, so it wouldn't surprise me if they know each other well and were just ******* with each other...

It's beyond cringe... It's illegal and he should be long gone from our league.

Of all the ******* things .. ha ha. Also, sounds like Vilardi could be back Weds.

Jets desperately need Vilardi and Ehlers... Impressive what they've been able to get done with an almost non existent PP. If they can get back to relatively healthy and put together close to full 60s, they can be dangerous.

Terrified of that team... Also Fla...

Loved the scrap... It's Mania weekend so I thought Iafallo was gonna power bomb his man. Good stuff. Ell. Eff. Gee.

Jarious Jackson eases my mind a bit. I'm worried about Coach J calling games but I think Jackson will help in that regard. It's a good safety net.

Terrified of no Ehlers or Vilardi, but..... Go Jets Go.....?

Guttural screaming because he has to be the focus, instead of the game...

I cringe just reading this ... It's just so, so bad. They're clearly working with him, because it's toned down from when he started, but it's still just way too much. And there are SO MANY incredible PBP guys working Major Junior and even Junior A who deserve a shot... Don't get me started on Jack Michaels, AN AMERICAN, who somehow got hired to do regional in Edmonton....

Ugh....

Was really hoping for Sunday... Sat gonna be tough for me. Frig. I'll be keeping a tight eye on my phone anyhow.

Minnie or Cgy would have been much easier tasks... STL is just about as tough an opponent as anyone in the West. They're just built differently... Big, nasty, can score and have top notch goaltending.

STL is gonna be a TOUGH out for the Jets, and that's with a full roster. Missing Vilardi and Ehlers is brutal. Taking 4 from those guys is a tough ask...

Bell said radio is not a viable business and want out. Rumour is they tried to sell both their Brandon stations to Vista, but Vista didn't want to operate that far from their other markets. Those two remain for sale, along with one other Manitoba station, which hasn't had any takers just yet, but could soon..... ... definitely lots going on in Manitoba radio...

McIntyre figures Sunday start for the series...
