Pasific Coluseum Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Turned on the radio to hear Dave Pratt on air on CKNW. I don't like Pratt but when did he get this gig at AM980?? Where the heck is Dan Russell? Wow, CKNW just dropped the ball big time if they replaced Dan with Dave. This is the same host that would incessently rant about bike lanes even though he's a sports talks show host. CKNW has really gone done the gutter.

Dwayne The Rock Johnson Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Relax guy, he's filling in for that jabroni Dan Russell while he's on vacation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Opmac Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Back in March he joined CKNW. http://www.vancouver...3987/story.html Haven't listened to Sportstalk in ages. Will start to tune in again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BurnabyJoe Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Yeah he's filling in for vacationing Dan. He's been on 'NW for a few weeks/months now. CKNW news gave Pratt an interview with Gregor, he went after him on bike lanes etc. I didn't mind listening to him on 1040, until he started talking politics.

I♥Wellwood Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Thanks for the heads up, I loved listening to David Pratt ! People may have hated him but from what I can recall, their afternoon show ratings used to be through the roof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WestCoastCanucks Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 It may only be temporary but ever since he started to fill in for Dan I have been listening to CKNW Sportstalk and I usually never do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DonLever Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Dave Pratt is taking over Neil McCrae spot in the morning whne Dan Russell come back from holiday. Neil McCrae has retired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pasific Coluseum Posted June 30, 2012 Author Share Posted June 30, 2012 Give your head a shake, dan is about 15 years past his prime and does nothing but whine and complain about the canucks. Dave is the only commentator around who brings a strong opinion and backs it up (right or wrong). He's about the only commentator around with some actual personality (like it or hate it) and the vancouver sports talk scene has been an absolute bore since 1040 made the mistake of letting him go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Shakermaker Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Yeah, Price & Sekeres is sure boring Donny & BMAC are so boring. They're always cracking jokes and making listening enjoyable with their obscure references and announcer impressions. Dave Pratt is the only guy who thinks Poker is an actual sport. A 'sport' where you sit on your butt playing cards and get no exercise whatsoever. He's also thinks he's a political correspondent with his anti-bike lane anti-gregor rhetoric. This guy's shtick is lame and he's a loud mouth that got greedy when he asked for a raise after his contract negotiations failed at the Team.

Tortorella's Rant Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 I wish 1040 brought Pratt back. The biggest reason I listened as often as I did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
