I don't know if NBC dumbs him down a bit for the American audience (I haven't done a side-by-side comparison), but I generally enjoyed him on TSN and even at his worst down here, he's no worse than "tolerable" to me.
Your mileage may (obviously) vary.  |
I'm with my man Simms on this one.I rather enjoy his insight into the game.
