Zaun Gone...

[TheHurl]

Sportsnet has fired him over inappropriate workplace behaviour. Zero surprise there

[TheHurl]

This is what was read on air (Fan 590 I think)

 

[BTS]

I can’t think of a single potential offseason move better than this.

[Dr. Dinger]

Possibly the least surprising headline of the year.

[glory]

Yeah, this is about the least surprising news ever.

[Omar]

Can you smell that Sunday roast?

[fatcowxlive]

Can't say I'm surprised at all.

 

On a side note - is it me, or has 2017 just been a constant barrage of news about sexual misconduct with famous/semi famous people? Russell Simmons was just outed by a female writer earlier today too

Harvey Weinstein opened the floodgates and rightfully so.

“This week, we received complaints from multiple female employees at Sportsnet regarding inappropriate behaviour and comments by Gregg Zaun in the workplace. After investigating the matter, we decided to terminate his contract, effective immediately. This type of behaviour completely contradicts our standards and our core values. We believe in a professional workplace where all employees feel comfortable and respected. We are grateful to our employees who spoke with us and we will take every measure to protect their privacy.”

This seems like an appropriate place for this:

[G-Snarls]

Oh well

[vdubmvp]

Oh well

 

lol I don't know why this is making me laugh so much.

[burlingtonbandit]

So many on air guys in Canada are probably s***ing themselves now. Its not like it was only Jian Gomeshi and Zaun doing s***.

[Sammy225]

Why so I have a feeling that it was Jaimie Campbell that complained lol

[bendera3]

I'm waiting for a Boxy inner conflict. Hating Zaun but hating what he'll believe as PC ********.

I doubt it, he seemed to have a pretty good thing going. Sportsnet will probably ship him off to cover lacrosse or something now.

Get ready for the Barker and Wilner show!!!

Hazel Mae: "I swear when I complained about Zaun's behaviour I didn't know Kevin would get hired"

[Slade]

f*** just replace him with John MacDonald or something. The fans will eat that s*** up and we don't have to listen to Barker.

Why not just scrap it altogether and show the teams in batting practice or something? That would be way more fun to watch / listen to.

That's never going to happen, they need to fill some time in between trying to explain pointless stuff to casual fans.

[John_Havok]

Sucks about the inappropriate comments thing I suppose, but if that's the grenade that needed to be jumped on to get that idiot off the air.... I guess it's not all bad.

[EdwinsParrot]

Not a single soul is surprised.

[Jimcanuck]

big whoopee

There is something slimy about a coworker who worked with Zaun for years now writing an article about him and acting so removed from it all.....I ain't buying their "we are shocked" spin.

 

I wouldn't mind seeing Joe Siddall get a shot on TV as a permanent gig.

Nah, Siddal likely gets paid better travelling with the team, unless I'm wrong.

[P2F]

I, for one, am shocked!
