I will give credit to Gillis for getting rid of him for a while.
I wish Benning and Linden would do the same right now.
Ya just feel like sluggin the guy in the head.
Reading what you have to say vs listening to what Pratt has to say, I get why you don't appreciate Pratt but between the two of you I'm going Pratt every time...micky107 wrote:Pratt is the biggest idiot, trouble maker, troll, just plain ass, I have ever heard.

Agree 100%. A few years ago Pratt was absolutely insufferable and got himself fired for his tired bike lane rants. Since he has returned, he has absolutely toned it down. He is extremely gimmicky and a massive flip flopper but at least he has an angle. His opinions are often dumb but he is clearly doing it to generate discussion and that can be very necessary on a 4 hour talk show (especially when you've got cheerleader Bro Jake by your side - thank god they are incorporating Sat more).RoyalDude wrote:I don't mind Pratt these days, used to hate him but he's toned it down since his return. 1040 needs to do something about the afternoon show and All Things 1970's - Don Taylor
Thanks for the lecture Father Mulcahey. I guess I shouldn't expect anything different from a guy who thinks the CFL is entertainment. If you read back in the thread a poster was comparing Rome to the local inbreds and I commented on it. You should be turning cartwheels instead of whining at me. Your socialsist govt is about to drive the province into the toilet again.ukcanuck wrote:American sycophant wannabe blob snobBlob Mckenzie wrote:You can't compare Rome to the local idiots.
He gets Joe Montana and Bill Cowher for guests the local tards get Mitch Berger and Wally Buono
As an aside Boomer Esiason has a real good talk show out of NY , they actually talk a fair bit of hockey
I can't listen to the local idiots for more than a few minutes. Taylor and Marjanovich are now doing some skit where they pinch their noses and talk in weird voices at 5:00. Good times ... and that Ryan Henderson nerd giggles throughout the show.
Jim Rome, and ilk are fine for about 5 minutes, but do I give a fuck about American sports leagues beyond which ever franchise in whichever league has the national spotlight for 5 minutes.
Nope. News flash, sports is a local pastime.
Canucks lions whitecaps Seahawks blowjays and the NHL.
How much does Jim Rome or Dan Patrick or who ever talk about or have in depth analysis or relevant guests
To do with above list? Exactly.
Therefore, lay off the locals you insult spewfest.

At one point, the NFL called the CFL a feeder league, good place for their players to develop.Mondi wrote:What if the CFL became a developmental league for the NFL? Each team would have 3-4 affiliations, and play NFL rules?!
BOOOM!!!!
You know, I actually like the CFL. Went to home opener, was a bit sad. The crowd was small, the atmosphere dull, and the product a bit uninspiring. It's too bad, but it's not working in BC.
PRATT USED TO COME ON HERE AND PASTE HIS WHOLE SHTICK FROM EARLIER IN THE DAY IN CAPS. PARAGRAPHS AND PARAGRAPHS, WORD FOR WORD. DROVE ME CRAZY!!rockalt wrote:Agree 100%.

Taylor in the other hand has grown beyond brutal. Between his 70s nostalgia and analytics rants he has little left to say. Time to hang them up! As for Moj, never been a fan but I don't like football so am biased. Bmac sadly has been done for awhile. Hope he gets better. And then there is Ryan Henderson who is the perfect producer for that show.... pretty much the embodiment of what the old guys were 30 years ago.... decidedly average!
The CFL is a joke. From the owners to the players and the officials. They must be due for another team to be called the Roughriders. Maybe David Braley could buy up a couple more teams.micky107 wrote:At one point, the NFL called the CFL a feeder league, good place for their players to develop.Mondi wrote:What if the CFL became a developmental league for the NFL?

Too bad. It shows.

I can remember as a kid that being the hope when the owner built BC Place.Mondi wrote:What if the CFL became a developmental league for the NFL? Each team would have 3-4 affiliations, and play NFL rules?!

I'm going to assume that was at Empire Stadium... or are you twinistioning to a younger persona?Strangelove wrote:

It all depends on how one defines "kid".Cornuck wrote:I'm going to assume that was at Empire Stadium... or are you twinistioning to a younger persona?Strangelove wrote:

I went to more games at Empire Stadium, first as a kid, then as a drunken lout.Strangelove wrote:It all depends on how one defines "kid".Cornuck wrote:I'm going to assume that was at Empire Stadium... or are you twinistioning to a younger persona?Strangelove wrote:

Yes I watched many games at Empire when I was knee-high to a grasshopper.
But I'm referring to BC Place right now.
How's the weather down your way Corn?
