Amen brother - Jake keeps bringing in music into the mix. Enough, hell I have not even heard about the NFL last week, or the Lions or hell even the Whitecaps much.

SOAP....CAN'T SAY MUCH EXCEPT THAT WHEN YOU'RE NOT THE 'HEADLINER' AND INSTEAD THE 'PALLY-WALLY' ON A SHOW, YOU CAN'T FIRE ON ALL CYLINDERS...IT IS WHAT IT IS. WORKING OUT THE KINKS KEEP TUNING IN....IT'S EARLY DAYS...AND JAKE IS A LOT BETTER THAN WORKING FOR A STATION WHERE HALF YOUR AUDIENCE REMEMBERS WORLD WAR 2 AND HAVING TO BUY WAR BONDS.

The Pratt and Bro Jake show is awful. I didn't think anything could be worse than B-Mac and Taylor but this show might be. Pretty sad when Sekeres and Price are the best that outfit has to offer. Thank fuck for 1410, Jim Rome, Dan Patrick , Tom Mayenecht and TDM. The rest of the team is brutal. I can take Rintoul and Moj in extremely small does on a game night.

Don't forget to talk sports here and there... :hmmm:

I tuned in for a bit today and you guys were seemingly trying to avoid the entire topic. Being so close to the NHL season has many hockey fans listening for opinions, news etc but I found myself wondering why you and Jake were going on about Breaking Bad and other crap on TV.

I realize never ending sports talk would get to be pretty boring but you guys are a sports station...

Rintoul did a far better job in the mornings than these two.

Bro Jake is asking people to send him "The Champ" ideas.

He referred to studio as the out of control room.

He and Pratt are cringe worthy at almost all points.

I've been talking to my kids in the car instead of listening.

Now like that is like the epitome like of like boredom.
Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

Here's an idea for him, Kill off the Champ, that schtick got boring after the second time I heard it.

I change the channel whenever that shit comes on.

A couple of thoughts on the new Bro show in the morning:

I don't mind Jake...has a decent speaking voice and is pretty mellow.

Pratt is insufferable, as usual. "the new CBA is killing the NHL middle class". LOL Also..."I really believe..." as if it makes his point more valid because he prefaces it with "I really believe".

Is there a way we can banish that botchford moron from representing Vancouver in any public forum? Can we employ Brian Burke's lawyers for a gag order or something?
That friggin guy along with the rest of those clowns gallon gagger, leatherpants, Dan Russell and sundry red noses are giving the greatest city in Canada a bad rap. Is there no one out there who can carry the torch for guys like Jim Robson....can we get him out of retirement? Is he dead? Perhaps no one would notice if we stood his corpse up in front of a camera?

FfS botch turd, in what universe did you think we wanted a mental picture of Thornton wanking after a four goal night???

Seriously stupid

Botchford just let the entire NHL fanbase know what we have all known for years. What a fucking idiot . A complete and utter tool . Good luck getting any decent soundbites from anyone you sawed off little troll.

Dumb move by Botchford but by that same token, can we honestly blame him?

Given that he's a part of the media and given that we're talking about him, one could argue that he succeeded with flying colors by publicising it.

I can't stand Bothford, but in this case, I have to respect him for reporting it.

How many times have jokes been made about Daniel and Henrik and been reported through the media? Nobody cares and they all get a laugh out of it.

If anyone should be thanking Botchford it is Hertl and the SJ Sharks organization for taking unnecessary negative attention away from a great goal and placing it on a veteran like Joe, who can handle it.

That's a good point.

Mike Milbury flat out called the twins, "Thelma and Louise" a few years ago and the media's from Calgary, Edmonton, and Toronto openly supported those comments.
