Yup, or the Tampa Bay "Japanese ownership" that may or may not have actually existed. Or perhaps (ex-Flyer) Len Barrie.

Forgot about the Tampa Bay guys.

I don't understand how he has a job between the non job related incident and the fact he is a blowheart idiot.

Never underestimate the value of saying stupid things very loudly, with self-assurance.

Someone will eventually think you know what you are talking about.

Milbury is one of those guys who just really enjoys hearing himself talk... What a doosh. You can't take a single thing he says seriously.

I won't even lie: My goal in life is to fail up even half as effectively as Mike Milbury has over the last 25 years

It is truly spectacular, his career since he left the Bruins as coach, at how he was repeatedly rewarded for abject failure

My only question is why is he still employed?? Is it that hard to find a commentator to work pregame and between periods of a network hockey broadcast?

Hell, I was Radio, TV, Film major (Temple U. Class of 88!), I'd be happy to take the gig!

For the same reason that Stephen A is still employed...

(and we know what the A stands for)

I turn off the intermission or walk my dog when he is on.

My name Is Stephen B. The B is definately for Baddass

Thank you for this Bill.

NBC has to be trotting Milbury out there like this on purpose, right? Sort of an "any press is good press" sort of thing? Either way, he has just been ANNIHILATED.

These guys are simply there to cause a reaction.

Its the whole point of them arguing, being over-dramatic and so on.

Bottom line is to attract viewers or to get people talking. Which is exactly what Mike has done with his comments on Mason. Money makes the world go round. Joke.

well maybe I would stay tuned to intermission if I thought I was getting good insight by the commentators.

Mike milBury is a god

That's not the point. I rarely watch the INT shows because they are over-dramatic, made to be purposely controversial and so on.

Its built to suck in "new fans" and put the NHL on the map. I don't agree with it, but its why guys like JR and Mike are employed. Same for that crazy suit wearing freak up here in the north.

Same for Jack Edwards. Any bonehead will be able to admit that there are probably smarter people better suited for the job. However he gets people talking, and draws viewership even if its negative.

A guy like Milbury is employed on the national level where Clement is only employed on the local level.

You are correct, but it is sad

There once was a time in this world where intellect and credible positions were valued

Now, if you don't have a hot take, your media exposure is nil
