Yeah the talent isn't nearly as young as people are making it out to be.

I don't want to hear some old timer ramble on about hockey. I'm happy with the hosts being in that 25-45 range.

When I think of older TV guys, I immediately think of John Shannon (crusty old man), Doug MacLean (confused old man), Don Taylor (moron), Cherry (nuff said), Ron Maclean (nuff said), etc.

Can't think of many radio guys who were well past their prime except Mike Rogers. He seemed to get kinda pessimistic and disgruntled towards the end of his run. Like he'd lost passion for the game or had become so accustomed to the Flames defeat that he was the eternally negative guy.
