The Basketball Jones guys are leaving The Score (the non Rogers part).
You’d have to think they are likely going to Sportsnet or TSN.
Wow awful outro on the last block of the 6pm hour. Grange on part d of a God knows how many multi-part answer. Seixero basically says “Jays are bad. Bye.”
Doesn’t everyone in the studio see how many seconds are left before they sign off?
weekend post?
what ever happened to Ami & the rest of the people who contribute here? i seem to recall a request for more writers, but i guess that didn’t go very well.
To be fair to everyone, this summer hasn’t exactly turned out as planned for Toronto sports. That is probably contributing to the malaise. Once the Blue and White begin their rightful march to the Stanley Cup, I’m sure things will pick up. Unless they shit the bed too and then it’ll be really crazy.
The CBC’s exclusive window to negotiate for the NHL rights expired yesterday. No news yet……
Just listening to the Jays broadcast on 590 and fed up hearing the anti-Verizon commercials that are all over Rogers and Bell stations. The telcos are already shielded in Canada by foreign investment restrictions, but they want even more help. Here is a more balanced view from the excellent Michael Geist.

What Rogers, Bell and Telus are afraid of:

I’m sure when Bob gets back this week he will continue his free market outlook and come out in favour of letting Verizon in. He’s doesn’t like the CBC or Olympians getting government money so why should the 3 telcos get help?
my motivation for the week dissipated after Everton’s third straight draw to start the new season.
There’s always the NFL concussion talk.
Not that the big three telcos should get any sympathy but the Canadian government is giving Verizon very special treatment in comparison. As well Industry Canada gave the smaller carriers a big Fuck You, essentially telling them to go off and die.
The whole industry is totally screwed up and Harper’s policies have only made it worse.
I find it difficult to believe that the CBC could outbid Bell and Rogers to remain the major national NHL Canadian TV rights holder.
And we still don’t know what Bell will come up with for their regional TV outlet to use for their half of the regional Leafs games to be their counterpart to Rogers Sportsnet Ontario, once the present regional contracts expire, or what will be happening then with the existing three MLSE TV channels.
The next few months should provide some interesting conclusions to these situations.
