Comment on broardcasters on Jays game.

The current color commentator on Jays games in Houston is terrible. Just babbles on and on.

Thinks he knows how to solve every problem. Ruins coverage.

I hate Madison Chapman, she babools to much and very irritating voice, all other commentators are EXCELL.

Get rid of Shipman, her voice is very irritating, comments are too long-winded, she may have played softball, so stay there. The best commentators are catchers; they have called the games and understand the dynamics of the game.

If you're looking for ratings, you have just screwed yourself. When Shipman is on, I watch with no volume; sickening???

Pros:
  • Yes

Preferred solution: Get ridd of Shipman

  • - Three $102 charges for Sportsnet due to promo issue; total $306.
  • - Refunds promised; they do not use Sportsnet; seeking cancellation.

Hi there I've had an issue where rogers mentioned they couldn't help and that I have to call Sportsnet. Back in Nov.

Charged $102 for 4 months when I was supposed to use the prom code rogers gave me. It didn't go through. I called Rogers and they said I would receive a refund and cancel. Well four months later I got charged again $102 and they didn't cancel.

Called back many times, where I was on the phone for two hours at a time. Exhausting. Rogers said they can't help. And again on July 1 I got charged $102.

Three times. So total. $306 now in less than one year. I would love my refunds for the three times I was charged and cancel since I don't use Sportsnet.

Please. A huge misunderstanding of the promo that didn't go through which left me out so much money for so many months.

My name is Sabrina Loffreda.

User's recommendation: Good but hard to get a hold of

The most boring sports show on the planet

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - Sportsnet's coverage feels boring and predictable.
  • - Too much Canadian coverage; hosts are loud and not funny.
  • - Spend to cover more sports; stop being so boring.

The amount of boring sports coverage provided by Sportsnet continues to be so predictable. Too much Canadian coverage; the hosts are loud and not nearly as funny as they think they are.

Come on, spend some money and cover the entire sports world.

Please stop being so boring. Just because you own everything in *** doesn't stop you from providing good content.

Cons:
  • Make us watch boring tv because they own everything

Preferred solution: Better sports coverage

Unable to watch games

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

20 bucks a month, I should get all games that are subject to blackouts. I wish I could understand what you guys are doing.

You ain't got a problem taking my money every month, but you sure do have a problem showing games.

I'd like to know what you're going to do about this. Let's move forward and get the games on TV like they're supposed to be.

Loss:

Pros:
  • Tiger games
Cons:
  • Not being able to watch the tiger games

Preferred solution: Price reduction

  • - Bought UFC PPV through SN app, but access to the full card wasn't provided.
  • - Tried to cancel; no clear process and CS said PPV required an account.

Bought UFC ppv

Doesn't give access to full card

Tried to cancel his on advance of event

No process for this

Called and spoke to customer service, they lied to me saying I couldn't have bought ppv without account

I explained I bought directly through sn app

They said no I didn't

I asked to speak to someone else

They hung up on me

I called back, someone answered, and just set the phone down on the desk and ignored me

Unbelievable
