Re: Jays Win!

Ack. The Jays are giving Leafs vibes and not in a good way.

I think they'll turn it around.

Re: Jays Win!

Speaking of baseball, this is something I'd love to see. Unfortunately, I don't plan on being anywhere near New Jersey in the next three days. But imagine being able to watch two of the game's biggest stars at their peak in a long lost original 1955 TV broadcast and judge one of the most controversial calls of all time. 

"The Yogi Berra Museum & Learning Center is screening a never-before-seen original television broadcast of the opening game of the 1955 World Series (Whitey Ford vs. Don Newcombe), during which Jackie Robinson famously stole home – and Berra famously disagreed with umpire Bill Summers’s call of “Safe.”   

Hopefully, it ends up on the web someday. 

Was he out or was he safe? Yogi Berra Museum to screen rare 1955 World Series TV broadcast

Re: Jays Win!

A Seattle radio host went on an epic rant about how much he despises Vancouver Blue Jays' fans.

It happened after Wednesday's win on Sportsnet 650 in B.C. And KJR-FM's Dave Mahler didn't mince words about a fan decked out in full Toronto regalia.  

"I just sat next to some douchebag last night, grown man, wearing a full Blue Jays uniform, pants, jersey, hat backwards, the only thing he was missing was a cup and a jockstrap for his little Canadian balls,” he said.

“I wanted to walk up and kick the guy right in the crotch, just for walking out of the house wearing something like that. The minute this moron walked into the stadium, I wanted to punch him right in his frickin’ Frank and Beans.”


Next time, maybe he'll tell listeners how he really feels. Let's hope he gets multiple more chances.

No, Toronto holds home field advantage.  First two games in Toronto.

Re: Jays Win!

Interesting how so many non-Rogers owned radio stations on Tuesday morning are taking the audio from Sportsnet or The Fan coverage of the game and not giving credit. Some are also airing the Fox Sports calls. They really shouldn't be allowed to do that, but the rules on giving credit seem to have been completely forgotten.

Ironically, the only acknowlegement of audio I heard in the morning came from Rogers' 680 News, which ran the French call of Springer's home run - and gave credit to TVA.

Re: Jays Win!

CFRB's morning news anchor Stuart McGinn has confirmed he's taking all of next week off, so he can enjoy the World Series without having to turn off the game before it ends and get up in time for his early shift. 

No word yet on the lucky sub who gets to take his place.

Re: Jays Win!

A real nail biter but what a Jays win! My only beef is that when the trophies were awarded, some guy from Fox was doing all the presentations. WTF? I think a Sportsnet personality should have been doing this, or a recognizable Canadian, the Fox mic flash seemed really out of place to me. Trust Rogers to muck it up!

Fox is in charge as per the TV contract.

The presentation airs on Fox too. Fox gets precedence for paying more and having a larger audience....

If ever there was a year for a Canadian win, this is it.

Do you think there would be an invitation to the White House?

Re: Jays Win!

For the World Series we will also get the Sportsnet coverage with Dan and Buck.

I’m pointing this out because yesterday morning I saw multiple claims on another forum that Sportsnet was going to be simulcasting Fox coverage even if the Jays are in it, but Dan Shulman himself confirmed last night that it will be a Sportsnet produced broadcast, like the ALCS and ALDS.

Re: Jays Win!

I am sure City will simulcast the Fox coverage.
