from William Houston of Truth & Rumors,
Eight Canadian broadcasters will work on NBC’s Vancouver Olympics coverage. Included among the network’s 53 on-air people are Sandra Bezic and Tracy Wilson in figure skating; Tim Ryan and Todd Brooker for alpine skiing; Don Duguid, Colleen Jones and Elfi Schlegel for curling; and Pierre McGuire in hockey.
NBC’s prime time host will continue to be Bob Costas. Al Michaels will be the daytime host and Mary Carillo will work the late night show. Cris Collinsworth will provide special reports, as will Dick Button….

I think Milbury is the biggest idiot of the lot. How that guy continues to get high profile hockey commentary jobs just astonishes me. McGuire can be annoying but at least he can be insightful. Milbury is just a windbag.

Mcguire and Milbury are complete boobs. NBC should be embarrassed by those two. They could have gone with Ferraro and Roenick, a much more savvy, intelligent and articulate duo. Infact, they could have gone with just about anybody besides those two. Yet more proof that NBC just doesn’t have the executive intelligence that it once did. No Frasier, no Seinfeld, no recovery.
