Have We Seen The End Of Jack Armstrong?
It would seem as though with Sportsnet dropping basketball from their schedule next season that fan favourite Jack Armstrong will likely have to find a new gig somewhere else. :(
Quick someone, start a damn petition and have him as Chuck's sidekick for all 82 games instead of Leo. With Jack possibly leaving our commentary team this takes a severe blow next season for us the listeners. :crying: Quote:

Tell Leo thanks for his services, but he should really focus fulltime on sucking off Sam Dalem...er, I mean coaching Team Canada and give Jack the gig.
|
Well he's working for Raptors HD TV on shows like Raptors Today and Full Court Press or whatever it's called... and he's working for the Fan 590 on the Hoops show... so he won't be totally gone..unless he gets something more lucrative from another team/region/league.
|
I hope so SWAN because it would really be unfortunately if we lost such a lovable character here in Toronto. Who else is going to talk about getting loaded on every stop Toronto makes during their road trips? ;)
|
not only did Jack provide the best insight and analysis as the colour guy, but he was head and shoulders above everyone in terms of personality. While i can barely tolerate the other guys, i find Jack to be a pleasure to listen to - as i'm sure most everyone feels the same way.
It would be fantastic if he got a gigi with the score broadcasts. |
I think it is time to give the teams image a bit of a face lift anyway....
I am all for a new play by play man....and colour. It's boring now...hopefully Jack will stick around and do Raps TV stuff...but I would like to see a bunch of new faces. |
The easily dismissed John Saunders (who I personally liked) and they let Norma walk, so it's not entirely unconceivable they'll do the same to Jack.

REALGM has a thread stickied about bringing him back(and another site devoted to him), I'm sure we'll be seeing him next year, hopefully in Leos place.
|
isn't he doing the raptors tv and the score broadcasts as well? I thought leo is on tsn + cbc only?
|
I like Jack,
I mean, he's no Rod Black, but still, he's ok! |

My aunt dated Rod Black, she said he was a complete dick. |
Fire Sam, hire Jack. HELLO!!
|
She dated Rod Black???
Poor woman. |

*sorry, I know its your Aunt, but I just had too* |
Did she date him before or after he dated Wendel Clark? ;)
|
To me, Jack alone would be the best commentary ever.
I hate Chuck and Leo with equal passion. ;) |

Jack only does sportsnet. |
