So this morning I woke up listen TSN 1050 in Toronto and I heard a familiar voice along side Jim Tatti and I know I had heard of it before and I most likely had heard it on the Fan 590 and when I finally heard that it was Don Landry I was very excited. It was a very intelligent Landry who talked about how if Tebowing works in New York then in the next couple of years more teams will use their backups on a more regular basis and how before Steve Young there were no running quarterbacks in the NFL but Young opened the door for guys like Doug Flutie to get a chance in the NFL. He also talked about how the fire wagon game against the Oilers was the last home win for the Leafs who have now lost 9 in a row at home and have taken a complete nose dive and that something must of happened around the game that disrupt the chemistry and that someone is likely to come out in two or three years and set the record straight.
It was very good to have Landry on TSN 1050 because that is a guy that I wanted on the radio when they started almost a year ago but it looks like it may of been an one off thing because his podcast Bill Hayes has been picked up by Newstalk 1010 every Wednesday night from 10 til midnight in the last couple of weeks. This means that he may of only been invited in for an one time visit kind of thing but I diffidently hope not because his sports knowledge sprinkled with some of his comedy gold would be a great addition to TSN radio especially on the overnight shift where ESPN radio is not cutting it and bringing a local voice with his local views and his comedy bites may help the station going into year two.
Don Landry is great
