Pardon the lack of writing over the last few days. The winds of change are blowing for me, personally, and I have been extremely busy. In any event, never fear when Toronto Sports Media rumours appear. A number of independent sources are telling me that high level decisions are being [...]
Well, Cesar Romero, is no longer a 2 trick pony. The confusion I complained of last night. Watters on Sportsnet tv and on the radio on 640 Toronto running head to head with Sportsnet radio fan 590 Toronto. How did Rogers deal with the confusion? They apparently told old Cesar [...]
(“You know Reemer, someday I’m going to own a big sports bar.”) Toronto Maple Leafs (18-20-4, 40 pts) vs. Phoenix Coyotes (21-13-9, 51pts) @ Jobing.com Arena on LeafsTV, 9:00 PM ET Maple Leafs: Reimer (4-1-0, 1.92 GAA) Coyotes: Bryzgalov (15-8-6, 2.63 GAA) (according to leftwinglock.com) Reason to Watch: The Leafs [...]
I had the chance to speak with Bill Hayes this evening. Bill was clearly taken by surprise by his dismissal and told me that he wasn’t given any explanation as to why the decision was made. Hayes told me that he got along really well with Watters, often driving Wilbur [...]
