That’s my point.
Like many others I listen for their regular contributors like Friedman, Duhatschek, Brunt, Burke, Virk etc.
With the Flames success it’s become glaringly apparent how bankrupt their insight is. If they don’t have an easy negative topic to dance around & discuss they are pretty much clueless when it comes to providing listening value. This includes Rhett.
Not that this is surprising. They do little to no prep work or research to grow their knowledge base of the game, the team, or pro sports in general. They cherry pick & re-hash other peoples collected thoughts or research, relying on insider knowledge provided to rights holders & media & they fly by the seat of their pants. They readily & shamelessly admit it as a source of pride, especially Boomer. If you challenge them on any of this on the text line then they tell you to stop listening. So I have, along with supporting any of their advertisers.
