More Leafs games on TSN? Awesome. Gives me even more reasons not to watch TSN.
You say that like it's a bad thing.
Nah. Anything to further their demise and relieve the tax payer of this burden is a good thing.
I just wish someone would have purchased these teams who actually has a passion to win. As far as I see Rogers and Bell have a passion to make money, whether the team is successful or not is secondary. I would have preferred a Mark Cuban would have purchased the shares, but then again their aren't too many people in Canada with $1.3 billion sitting around. At least the bright spot is that the people who bought MLSE are Canadian.
At least, interesting in the negotiation for the rights to broadcast games.
That's interesting that both Bell and Rogers are in on it.

Any deal would have required CRTC approval. I don't believe that the CRTC would have approved if it was just one of them making the purchase. Besides, $1.3 billion is a huge chunk of change for just one of these companies.
