About Eye on the Media

Eye on the Media, debuted on Kukla’s Korner in February of 2008, and deals with all the evil, weird and just plain insane things that happen when hockey ventures into the foreign worlds of TV, Radio and News Print. I am a student, and a communications major, in New Jersey, which by association means you can blame me for destroying hockey. I love hockey and wants to hear everything you have to say about the way our game is covered.

Hockey Media Approval Ratings: Bill Patrick

This might be an interesting one.  Here we go with the new-ish host of VERSUS’ “Hockey Central” studio show.

Throughout his 25-year broadcasting career, Patrick has hosted SportsCenter and Baseball Tonight on ESPN, College Football Sunday on NFL Network, and various other shows.  From 1998-2006, he was a play-by-play man and reporter for the PGA Tour on USA Network.  This is his first hockey-centric job.

So, what do you think of what Bill Patrick is doing?

There really should be a no-opinion column.  I don’t approve nor disapprove of him, he doesn’t say a ton.

Steve, can a third option be added? Like “Meh,” “Christ if I know,” or even the standard “No opinion.” Patrick doesn’t really do much of anything, and I’d say his best work is when he keeps his opinions mercifully short. There just really isn’t a lot to judge.

Steve is busy today so I added a ‘Neutral’ option after 34 votes had been made- 20 approve and 14 disapprove.
