Bob McCown provides his own unique take on the sports stories of the day.
No one could have had a better view of Sam Bennett’s hit on Brad Marchand in game three of the Bruins' matchup against the Florida Panthers than Darren Pang, who joins the show today to talk about what he saw and to share his thoughts on everything else going down in round two of the Stanley Cup Playoffs. The three also have a conversation about the relevence a coach actually has for their respective hockey team as rumours heat up about who will be behind the bench in Toronto next season.Â
Another Monday, another visit from Richard Deitsch.
Bob and John react, with Richard, to the news of a WNBA team coming to Toronto in 2026. With popularity in women’s basketball at an all-time high, the three take a look into what adding a professional team means for the city and the continued growth of women’s sports.
After the break, Bob, Richard, and John take a look at the changing landscape of TV rights, specifically in the NBA, with a new deal seemingly in place. Before they go, the three briefly touch on the Toronto Maple Leafs’ search for a new head coach and the bumbling baseball team that is the Toronto Blue Jays.
It’s been six days since the Toronto Maple Leafs lost yet again in the first round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs, and just one day since Maple Leafs Management decided to let go of Head Coach Sheldon Keefe. Steve Simmons was at their Press Conference today where he saw Brendan Shanahan, Brad Treliving, and Keith Pelley all address the media and assure Leafs fans everywhere that they have everything under control.
But do they really? Steve, Bob, and John break down some comments made at the press conference, debate on who of their “big four” is out the door, and more as the three end the week with a question: What do the Toronto Maple Leafs do now?
After 5 seasons as the Head Coach of the Toronto Maple Leafs, Sheldon Keefe has been relieved from his duties. Joe Micheletti comes on the show to talk about it with Bob and John as the voice of the New York Rangers shares his opinion on the firing, gives us his perspective on the this Toronto Maple Leafs team as an outsider looking in and fills us in on everything we need to know about this Rangers team as they vie for the Stanley Cup.
Finding ourselves in a similar situation to many years before, the Toronto Maple Leafs cleaned out their lockers yesterday and Mike Zeisberger returns to the show to break it down with Bob and John.
The three break down some of the answers and acknowledgements from the players and coaching staff in yesterdays interviews but the same question still remains: Is this the offseason of change that Leafs fans have been waiting for?
Building off their conversation from Friday’s episode with Adnan Virk: Richard Deitsch, Bob, and John start the week reacting to a disappointing outcome in Boston for the Maple Leafs and the bleak showing of baseball seen from the Blue Jays over the weekend.
The Toronto Blue Jays aren’t good, and it’s obvious. The three spend the first half of the show talking about the disappointing progression the Blue Jays have shown over the last few years and try to figure out what the team has to do to course-correct and when.
After the break, it’s all Maple Leafs. Bob, John and RIchard try to figure out whats next for this organization after a strikingly familiar end to yet another year of unmet expectations and frustrating results.
With a few of the 1st Round Matchups already decided and a few more on the edge of completion, Mike Futa joins Bob and John today to talk about them.
The three focus on the series that have ended already and some of the teams who are waiting patiently for their second-round matchup to be revealed for the first bit of the show before dedicating the latter half of the conversation to the Toronto Maple Leafs, the Boston Bruins, and what he thinks will happen tonight as the Leafs try to force game seven in Boston this weekend.
The Boston Globe’s Bob Ryan joins the show today for some hoops talk as the trio shares their opinions on what they have seen so far in the first round of the NBA playoffs, focusing on the Boston Celtics, but making sure to cover all of the action and storylines that have emerged already in the post season.Â
Already, a few NHL coaches have lost their jobs, so who better to bring on today’s show than a man who knows what it’s like to get “relieved of his duties”? Doug MacLean joins Bob and John today to discuss potential hires for the new vacancies behind the benches of various teams around the league, look into the dumpster fire that is the Toronto Maple Leafs organization, and more on this hockey edition of today’s show.
