@PodStreetBobb I realized this morning that there really wasnt much flyers talk after all. The media started talking about the flyers, fans gave them shit, and 75% of the talk became about flyers fans gatekeeping. They never even broke down the team or games.

This is why people hate local media covering the Flyers only when they’re good. They start covering when the team is good, bitch about “gatekeeping,” then turn around and mock the fans who follow through thick and thin with this lazy troll job.

@nittanyzou24791 @PodStreetBobb Do people realize what "flyers in 50" is? They hired Brodes off the scrap heep. They knew he liked hockey, but knew he shouldn't talk hockey on WIP. So they gave him 50 seconds once a week to talk hockey, and they joke about it the entire time. It does go longer than 50 sec

@JohnKincade @Haleytsimon Was CBP packed post Howard, Utley, Rollins/Pre Harper, Schwarber, Turner? How many people were at the sixers games during the process? They got more talk than the flyers. Radio hosts are talking about what's relevant to them. That doesn't always line up with their audience.

@ebrowno24 @Haleytsimon You misunderstand. If the local team isn’t generating a tv and radio audience and many times sparse crowds you can see directly the fan interest level. It isn’t ours, it’s theirs

@JohnKincade @Haleytsimon I think relevancy and a team's financial success are separate...no? Are radio shows structured around the financial success of the sports franchises?

@ebrowno24 @Haleytsimon The Phillies “relevancy” and the Flyers is not comparable. In local TV and Radio viewers and listenership, ad revenues, fan attendance, following, etc.. There is no comparison

@JohnKincade @Haleytsimon John, Mike miss would have Jason stark on every week when the phillies were irrelevant. Ask Andrew how many sixers he can name from the process years. How many irrelevant things are talked about every day. That excuse doesn't fly.

@Haleytsimon Because they actually spin a narrative that hosts “don’t know hockey”, “don’t care about hockey” instead of just understanding that the Flyers haven’t made themselves relevant for years. They are fixing that and coverage is growing. Good job on your coverage 👏🏻

@PodStreetBobb I wish I can get into podcasts, but they don't work for me with sports. I have to be live with anything with sports.

@stupiddddddddq @Anth_Chatburn I know what it is, and its an irrelevant stat. Points per game is more accurate. And for those 2 years, he was close to a point per game. His average is .61 PPG. Take those 2 years away, and hes a .54 PPG. A defensive minded forward with those numbers fits well on the 3rd line.

@ebrowno24 @Anth_Chatburn Per 82 games, it’s not rocket science, injuries and Covid happened. It’s a four year span when he paced for 76 points, that’s not a middle six player lol

There were folks who couldnt accept the idea that Frost might *only* be a great 3C or a good 2C. He had to be a 1C because they invested heavily in that lore. If you pushed back on that you got called a hater, got blocked, because in their mind if he wasnt going to be a 1C he wasnt good enough. Keep that in mind over the next few months as summer and camp play out. For some folks if it's not a grand slam it may as well have been a strikeout.

@DR3Wheels It's simple. I dont want them talking about my sport after ignoring forever. Why would I want any of their opinions on something I know way more about than them? They use "irrelevance", but how much irrelevant BS to they talk about every day? Weird people id never associate with

@stupiddddddddq @Anth_Chatburn Per 82 games...WTF is that? If he had 1 points in one game, he'd be on pace for 82. Over 2 seasons, he had 76 points. I'll move him up to 2c for 2 seasons since 1C on a contender is 90+

@DylanFMackinnon @Anth_Chatburn I hope that's the truth, because I don't get that vibe listening to the hosts. And if they do truly watch the more intriguing match up, I dont know why they don't disect the games equally.

@ebrowno24 @Anth_Chatburn Ill watch the game that is more important amd more competitive. Since you mentioned Penguins specifically, Ill watch Flyers. But likewise I would watch Sixers Celtics over Flyers Kings. Right now, Im more likely to watch Flyers because they are currently more fun

Maybe spend more time covering the team during the first 90% of the season and you arent on social media crying about the meanies calling you fake? Ive taken shit all year on this site for being positive - so yeah you trying to slide in for the last leg of the race is shit.
Dylan MacKinnon@DylanFMackinnon

@Anth_Chatburn Have you considered not crying and just being happy that people in the city are excited about Hockey again? Maybe stop being a miserable grump and be happy

@DylanFMackinnon @Anth_Chatburn Bill is a great hockey fan. So is John K. So you have 2 more flyers fans than the other station. Serious question: sixers vs Sacramento is on the same time flyers are playing the penguins in February. What game are you watching?

@Anth_Chatburn Also 975 has covered hockey from the start. Go to our website and you will see great hockey coverage. Tune into Unfiltered and you will see Bill being excited about them dating back to October. Stop whining because the band you like is suddenly popular

@DylanFMackinnon Dylan, you had Brandon on your station today. I thought his point about being genuine was a good point. John K. and Bill C follow the flyers closely. The rest don't, so when its time to talk flyers, it's forced, it's not coming from passion, and I dont want to hear it.

@mccrystal_alex I dont mind the casual fan jumping on. But if you've been choosing to watch sixers games all year over the flyers, I dont want you. I also don't need the "professional" sports personalities trying to talk intelligently about the flyers when they don't know squat.

I see people gatekeeping the flyers and it is the lamest thing ever Let Philadelphians bandwagon. I don’t care if someone just watches watch the eagles and Phillies Get folks swept up in the flyers and make them fans! It’s how you create real buzz and a fun atmosphere.

I can't help but laugh.....Boosh is being critical of Flyer players left and right on TNT. If he was doing the local broadcast he wouldn't say any of the shit he's saying 😂😂😂

@jasonmyrt good to hear you on with Jon earlier. I have to disagree with what you said about winning without a top pick though. Since '09, 0 teams have won a cup without a top 3 drafted player. 1 team has played in a conference final without a top 4 drafted player.

@Markycsv @B_Sommermann No, I dont agree with this. I dont want them to just talk about the flyers, I want them to be truly into it and want to talk about the flyers. I want them to make flyers front and center when they deserve to be front and center. It won't happen though.

@stupiddddddddq @Anth_Chatburn Yes points. If he had kopitar and Bergeron points, he would be a better fit at 1C or 2C. But because he wasn't a very good offensive player, he was better at 3C. Cates isnt expected to be very good, yet he did something couturier couldn't do for 6 seasons.

@ebrowno24 @Anth_Chatburn You said a defensive center should be a 3C, now you’re off about points? Not sure how Cates or Michkov factor into this conversation lol

@stupiddddddddq @Anth_Chatburn In his prime, he scored 76 points in 82 games. Respectable but not 1C material. Kopitar had 92 in 82. Bergeron had 79 in 65. It took Couturier 6 years to reach 40 points. Cates has 42 now with a few games to go. Michkov has 40 in a terrible year 2.

@stupiddddddddq @Anth_Chatburn Kopitar: 1314 points in 1514 games = .87ppg Bergeron: 1040 points in 1294 games =.80ppg Couturier: 575 points in 946 games =.61ppg Couturier has 9 seasons under 40 points Koitar has 2 seasons under 50 points Bergeron had 3 seasons under 40 points.
