Of all the sites on the internet, this is one.
Seeing as a good number of people have been coming here lately looking for info and a couple have even asked me about it, I thought I’d pass on the news I just got about the end of classic hits CKOC and the beginning of TSN Radio 1150 Hamilton. As I figured but never confirmed, …

Often when I open the TuneIn Radio app, I’m greeted with a pitch for the premium service. Now and then I’ve thought about trying it out since what it offers sounds pretty decent, but I’ve never bothered to give it a go. But it seems I may have to get off my arse and just …
I don’t have any super deep thoughts on it since the sort of person who can sit and over-analyze a game who’s object is essentially to hit batting practice really really far is the sort of person who needs more things to do, but I have to say that I absolutely loved this year’s Home …

So long to Tony Verna, who died in January at age 81 after a battle with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. You may not recognize the name (I didn’t), but you almost certainly know what he’s famous for.
