That sucks if they're leaving. They've become a part of my day.

Damn that sucks. Funny guys who made that show.

It's going to be very hard to replace them.

Been rumblings about this for the last little while.

Good for them, a huge boost to their careers awaits.

Rod Smith is still good, and he does the early show, but the late shows with Karim and Woron are terrible.

Have to imagine they are going to do SC on ESPN, no? ESPN SC is awful and Onrait is exactly what it needs.

Good for them bad for us. Much more money to be made in the US in television.

It's pretty sad that TSN will still likely be better than Sportsnet. I'll stick with TSN.

Where are they going I wonder. Obviously not ESPN, is CBS Sports based in LA?

Fox I believe according to James Duthie.

Big Congrats to two of my favourite clowns (term of endearment) on the planet, @JayOnrait and @tsnotoole. Leaving us for FOX in July.

Good pickup by Fox. If they let Jay and Dan do their thing they could have something big on their hands. Onrait in particular has potential in the business IMO.

I've always wondered in what format Loubardias would be best at (in the context of seeing/hearing from him on a regular basis).

I have to say though.. radio wasn't his thing. At least not when I had tuned in past the 3 day mark. I found that he started to become a little irritating. Just my opinion though.

It'll be very interesting to see who takes over.

Hopefully they get rid of Aaron Ward.
