February 18, 20223 yr comment_556821 Plot thickens: Murray McCormack interviewed Taylor in the Regina Leader Post today. Taylor indicated he re-signed to focus on sports betting, which is his passion. Re the CJOB job, he said, “I should look into that.”

DT, much like Hustler are very active in online sports betting. Curious as to what kind of careers there are in that space?
February 18, 20223 yr comment_556826 Who thought hiring a numbers guy would be a good fit for Rider fans? They should be fired.
February 18, 20223 yr comment_556829 On SportsCage DT announces that it was time to go. He has been there 3 years. Say no more, we all understand.
February 18, 20223 yr comment_556831 Ya I was surprised that he was leaving just to leave. I assumed he had another gig lined up. Good for him. Get that stink of fhim as soon as possible.
February 18, 20223 yr comment_556832 He probably tried it out hoping for stability (as much as you can get in the media world), but wasn’t happy with it.

February 20, 20223 yr comment_556988 FWIW the posting on CORUS’ website for Bob’s job has been taken down. And it was only put out on Feb. 11. Could mean many things, including the fact that they’ve given it to Taylor.

And half the broadcast would be about unimpotant things like how he misses Wet n Wild & the River Rouge.

I really liked Derek's "The Details" back when he was on TSN, so I hope that he brings some of that with him to Play-by-Play.

Just going to be weird not hearing Bob.

I'm not what you'd call outright EXCITED about the DT hire......but.....it's something. "...Ehhhh....he seems to know the kids names...." is the Simpsons quote I'd use here. I'm not as excited for the first pre-game show of the season, but I'm open minded and willing to give him the benefit of the doubt. See if we can get the Riders stink off him.
