I've been a regular listener/watcher of TSN's Overdrive for years.

But .. 

My patience is getting increasingly taxed by Jeff O'Neill.

The O'Dog continually overtalks the others .. both fellow panelists & guests.  He's quite thin-skinned when anyone disagrees with his opinion & can become somewhat belligerent & mocking.  He talks at length but often repeats his point again & again.   His opinions can be quite shallow at times.  He's prone to losing focus & not paying attention.

Hayes & Noodles are much, much better discussing things .. for me, the show is better the less O'Neill speaks.  Heck, I'd prefer Frankie Corrado.

On the flip side, O'Neill is very good during game intermission analysis.  Short, concise, insightful observations.

Put him on a show with Alex Pierson.  Neither would complete a sentence without interruption from the other.  It'd serve both of them right.

Longtime listener but less and less lately....
3 immature people..terrible discussions; laughing at people's misfortunes, especially Noodles...
ODog - not very intelligent and not on top of what's happening in the world; tries to take over...
Segment on football with Luke Willson/Al's brother is soooo childish...all they do is promote their betting advertiser.
There's never a serious conversation...
I can see Bell cancelling this poor ratings show...It will probably end up as a podcast
Too bad McCown isn't on air as an alternative
