Two big problems that curling needs to address for the next quadrennial: the calendar and attendance. All the empty seats (sections!) in Ogden and Toronto are not a good look. I'll have more in a future In The Rings.
@311Toronto Dead, Large city tree overhanging northbound lanes of Leslie St, just north of Lawrence. Definitely needs to be taken down / could be dangerous.
Roadblock Lifted: Sportsnet says Blue Jays radio crew will return to the road in post-season if team qualifies - my story: thestar.com/sports/basebal… Frank Gunn pic
Roadblock: Jays radio broadcasters won't be returning to the road this season - my story: shorturl.at/zDEK3 - "Being there and being able to capture the environment and capture all the variables as much as possible, that's what's lost at the end of the day." Jon Blacker pic
Best of luck to Olivia Chow as she prepares to become Toronto's 66th Mayor. I wish her all the best.
Also...a message to the over 60% of eligible Toronto voters who decided to stay home. If you ever feel like complaining about the city in the future...please shut the f*** up.
It’s 4-4 at the Jays game. Jays are batting. Half the stadium is trying to do the wave.
Rule number one: never do the wave when the home team is hitting.
Rule number two: never do the wave.
Rule number three: see rule number two.
Oilers in 6…But hard not to look past G4….Jack Campbell enters the game down 3-0…makes 27 of 28 saves…and Hyman in OT.
Turning Point for sure.

Off the Road Again: The Blue Jays had on-site radio broadcasts for road games in the second half last season. Sportsnet plans remote coverage for 2023. Former Jays voice Jerry Howarth, MLB commissioner Rob Manfred and others weigh in - my story: bit.ly/3YFKF9S FGunn pic
.@MLB signed 5 year deal in the fall of 2017 to integrate their system with @TeamStubHub: seems like summer of 2022 is a bad time for @StubHub to have a 2+ week outage for the MLB season ticket holders who really need connection to carry cost of 81+ games sportspromedia.com/news/mlb-lands…
Guess what? @StubHub still doesn't work. Going on day seven of not being able to post my tickets for sale. @TeamStubHub can't help and sellers continue to lose $$$$. #StubHubFail And of course, no communication from either them or the @MLB
