There's also no compelling sports highlights right now either. Unless one likes boring sports

That's 2.5 minutes out of, what, a three hour show?

I wonder if we will see these guys on Sportsnet? I could see Sportsnet picking up this show from Fox Sports 1 and airng it on SN1 or on whatever they are calling the old Score now. In a partnership of sorts, like ESPN/ TSN. That could potentially cripple TSN.

That was great and all from just one episode? Looks like Fox isn't being shy about turning them loose. They may not be the cup of tea for prudes but they add spice to what can be a pretty monotonous telecast.

I think they are making way too much money at Fox for a Canadian broadcaster. With Verizon coming into the cell phone market taking some of Rogers market share, it's a matter of time until we see Rogers hiring people off the street for minimum wage to do their sports shows which is only a step down from where they currently are.

I think they will be extreamly popular, yet very unpopular at the same time. There will be no middle ground.

Those who 'get' them will walk across hot coals to watch the show. Many will watch, because the hear how funny they are and suffer, coz they don't get it. Some will hate them, because they are 'silly'.

I love their humor.

I meant just picking up the show and simulcasting it, not hiring them. Rogers has a lot of crap on their networks right now.

I can't see Sportsnet picking up a news show. Maybe a NFL preview show or the like but not a wrap up news show.

I doubt that a highlights show, that for many won't be any better than Sportscenter, will come close to crippling TSN.

No, but it's not a bad idea. If they showed it on Sportsnet 360 every evening I'm sure it would boost the ratings for that station by a ton.
