I think Valji's beat reporting is actually quite good relative to what we've had in the past from TSN. He's confident and ambitious, which seems to rub many here the wrong way, and yes from time to time he adopts an insider posture on Twitter that's probably not merited. But he works hard and often brings out stories that are much more compelling than the rote game day reports that were the stock-in-trade of TSN's Calgary bureau for like 15 years. I really don't understand the bad rap he gets around here.
