DT, much like Hustler are very active in online sports betting. Curious as to what kind of careers there are in that space? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geebrr Posted February 18, 2022 Report Share Posted February 18, 2022 Who thought hiring a numbers guy would be a good fit for Rider fans? They should be fired. Zach Schnitzer, Noeller, Bigblue204 and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geebrr Posted February 18, 2022 Report Share Posted February 18, 2022 On SportsCage DT announces that it was time to go. He has been there 3 years. Say no more, we all understand. Noeller, Jesse and bearpants 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noeller Posted February 18, 2022 Report Share Posted February 18, 2022 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesse Posted February 18, 2022 Report Share Posted February 18, 2022 He probably tried it out hoping for stability (as much as you can get in the media world), but wasn’t happy with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zach Schnitzer Posted February 20, 2022 Report Share Posted February 20, 2022 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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

For me it was a toss up between Derek Taylor and Darren Bauming. 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.

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.
