We could send all the emails and tweets we like, they won't do a thing about it.
Maybe if people complained to Pinty's there might be someone who pays attention. None of the other advertisers, which is what is blamed for this issue that's been known by Sportsnet for over 5 years, will give a crap. Heinz and Coke aren't going to be worried if a few Flames fans say they won't buy their products anymore. Especially Heinz because who buys that other crap?
Roger Millions is the biggest issue in all this. He acknowledged the complaints years ago, said he'd talk to someone and then instead of fighting on behalf of the Flames fans to better the quality of product on the network HE collects a paycheck from he came back and told fans that audio/video sync issues are not that important and we should be worried about bigger "fish" in regards to the Flames. Last I checked Sportsnet has ZERO to do with the on ice performance of the Calgary Flames Hockey Club and are only there to present the games to viewers at home. If the "fish" we are concerned about in regards to what Rogers presents to us then we sure as hell have no reason just ignore the inferior quality presented to us by a BILLION dollar organization that seems to be able to get it right for the teams they specifically sponsor in Vancouver and Edmonton.
So, Roger, we know you have an account here. What's your excuse after all these years? That we should be more concerned with the Flames giving up 4 goals in a game and not having to hear Rick Ball announce those goals before your network can visibly show them? We know you are a Drumpf supporter so I'm pretty sure I know your answer already.
I'm done watching Sportsnet. I will illegally stream opposition broadcasts from now on whenever possible. Even a choppy illegal stream will still be better than what Rogers Sportsnet and by extension the Calgary Flames Hockey Club present every game.

This is one of the most absurd things I have ever read on here. How on earth is any of this the hosts fault?
And for the record, I'm pretty sure Roger no longer comes on here because of baseless and ridiculous personal attacks like this. Bringing up his political beliefs is in very poor taste. Give your head a shake. That has nothing to do with anything.
