Well...this stuff isn't really the domain of the sports writers tbh.

Sure but they all seem fine to sweep things under the rug. Eg. Blackhawks

Katie Strang seems legit too.

Wasn't familiar with her work, now am.

Okay, we've got two.

I mean, yes. But we've also had sports writers trying to masquerade as serious about their craft for decades in Toronto. Strachan, Cox, etc, etc. They're TMZ in collared shirts and always have been, with semi serious news outlets running cover fire for them with their organizational credibility.

Fuck the whole lot of them. It's telling that they've had fuck all of substance to say about any serious issue that's come up in the sport for years now.

so perhaps a distinction that can be made is between the parrots and the actual investigative journos. in terms of actual investigative work, there are very few, if any, folks in the sporting world who are doing that.

That’s a major insult to TMZ. Not cool.

Fair. TMZ is actually very, very good at what they do. What they do completely sucks dick and their existence is a significant sign of the downfall of our species...but they're legit great at it. Toronto sports idiots are unoriginal and lazy in comparison.

This just may sink Hockey Canada as we know it - they may choose to let it burn to the ground in order to try and keep their wrong-doings out of the public eye.

 

[leafman101]

Quebec and Ontario did that too. I imagine all provinces will follow. And all the sponsors dropping out. They’re done.

 

[hockeylover]

I think we're up to... Tim Horton's, Scotiabank, Canadian Tire, Telus, Esso, Chevrolet, SkipTheDishes, and Sobeys.

 

[trujaysfan]

Did ontario also stop sending fees?

 

[Kritter]

Does hockey Canada have any commitments from any of the brands that dress the players on the ice?
Where is commentary from Nike? Bauer?

Nothing that I've heard.

I'm guessing this is a fuck Trudeau thing. He knows his audience in Berta I guess.

Well we are getting a new premier tonight that wants to separate.

Kenney also cheated to with his leadership race and then laid off the election Commish looking into it.

 

[Artnes]

We basically now have Jamie Sale running the province

 

[MindzEye]

Will be interesting to see how the polls move after this. Ndp and United clown posse have been in a polling toss up for a while now.
