Not sure which side you were on, the love him or hate him side, but no doubt he has been an icon of Sports radio for a lot of years.
I enjoyed his banter, he is one of a kind and Im sure will wind up on another station somewhere.
Now, was he fired or did he walk? Seems like the latter.

TORONTO — Longtime sports talk radio host Bob McCown will leave his position as host of Prime Time Sports on Friday, Sportsnet said in a release.
McCown has hosted the show, which airs on Sportsnet 590 The Fan AM in Toronto and nationally on television on Sportsnet 360, since its inception in 1989.
McCown was not quoted in the release and details on his future plans were not available. However, he tweeted that speculation concerning his retirement is "100% inaccurate."
"Okay…I am leaving Prime Time Sports and Rogers," he said on Twitter. "But nobody can shut me up when I still have things to say. Stay tuned. I’ll be back!"
