He was on the Fan a few days ago. A somewhat confrontational interview although I think he makes some valid points (in how he has been misrepresented).

I heard the interview, and I don't think he makes any valid points at all (as to why he singled out Toronto over the many other cities that are in much worse situations). It's too bad it was Landry and Stellick. Somebody else with more knowledge of baseball would have done a much better job with the guy (and maybe wouldn't have ended with a stupid insult).

Landry and Stellick did a terrible job. A guy like Bob McCowan would have ripped him apart.

Yeah. I like the Bobcat for things like that.

He could have also totally called into question his journalistic integrity without sounding like an imbicile.

Mike Wilner would also shred him apart and throw a bunch of figures and stats at him to prove everything he said was wrong.

I love how guys who rip Toronto like him and Chipper Jones complain about how there's nothing on tv. Well maybe they should, I dunno...GO OUTSIDE?

I think some people are used to just sitting on their couches and leaving ESPN on 24/7.
