odessasteps Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 If you count Toronto, 590 is owned by Rogers, who also owns the Jays. Plus, Rogers and Bell own MLSE (Leafs, raptors, TFC, Argos) and they each own a sports radio station. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted February 22, 2018 Author Share Posted February 22, 2018 So I totally wasn't prepared for the Warner Wolf is suing Don Imus story https://nypost.com/2018/02/15/warner-wolf-suing-don-imus-for-age-discrimination/?utm A lot of things from my youth colliding there. Oh and the wrestling connection? Wolf was replaced by Sid Rosenberg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 The only thing missing from that story is it being written by Mushnick. As a kid n, I wrote to Wolf (when he was on The CBS Morning show) and got his book autographed. (He went to summer camp around here as a teen) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jrag Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 The last two weeks of the Dan Le Batard show is the greatest run of shows ESPN has ever produced! It's hard to imagine that ESPN's biggest radio show/podcast just lead yesterday's national show with a hypothetical debate about hand transplants because Dan no-showed his own gig on an hours notice. The show races, Greg Cote in the Zardoz costume, Fake Stu Gotz.... just an incredible two week stretch. Dan showed up on Friday heavily sedated with 10 minutes remaining in the 4 hour show. Just in time to open up the club. https://twitter.com/LeBatardShow/status/972263627989356544/video/1 I love this ridiculous show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
