Poolies take note: sounds like mid to late November at the earliest for Mason Raymond to return. Could also be mid-November for Kesler.

^^ as far as i know his contrac expired at the end of august and they couldn't come to a agreement. If Rogers launches their own sports radio show, Pratt might be on there Posted via RS Mobile
Yesterday Bmac came on and said Pratt and the station had parted ways for good and te afternoon show is now bmac and Taylor
I like bmac, the problem I have with releasing Pratt is that bmac runs his show just like the morning and midday show, they are all basically just reporters and by the time the afternoon show rolls around you've already heard all the stories already, Pratt at least brought a hard opinion to things, had stances on subjects other than sports, and wasn't afraid to stir things up, I have a feeling the afternoon show will take quite a while to get back to the level it was at Posted via RS Mobile
I don't know if this was discussed yet but did Dave Pratt get canned from team1040? Posted via RS Mobile
Quote:
SCENE & HEARD: It was near the end of the business day Thursday when an internal office memo hit the bulletin board and email circuit at Team 1040. Signed by James Stuart, vice-president and general manager of CHUM Radio Vancouver, it essentially informed the staff that David Pratt would not be returning to the station's airwaves.
It had been noted in this space last week that Pratt's contract had expired Aug. 31 and negotiations had reached an impasse with Team 1040 and Pratt's lawyer/agent Ron Perrick. Pratt anchored the station's highest-ranked sports talk segment with co-host Don Taylor during the prime-time afternoon slot for the past 10 years. It drew huge listening audiences and Pratt basked in the role of the bad guy with outlandish opinions and controversial rants.
Noting that he had always enjoyed amicable dealings with Team 1040 in the past, Perrick now adds: "Until the last week." He says the station's final offer was "unacceptable."
Stuart refuses to get into a hissing contest. In a prepared statement emailed to inquiring media, Stuart wrote: "I have no comment on the details of what happened, as that remains a confidential matter between the station and Dave. At this moment, our strategy to replace Dave and any subsequent change around the afternoon shift are being finalized and will be announced soon."
Rumour is that he was looking for 500k per Posted via RS Mobile
And it's not like he was making anything less than 1/2 of that on his old contract from what I had heard. I didn't know sports personalities were paid so damn well
Maybe 1040 wouldn't frontload his contact enough, lol
