Majority stake of MLSE which is the Leafs and Raptors was sold to Rogers and Bell this morning.

An image from the teachers union. Thanks for the 1.32 Billion!

Man! I'm still stunned its over. That's like Pepsi and Coke partnering up. They are like mortal enemy's up here. They must be seeing dollar signs too.

Now they BOTH can offer great Leafs/Raptors/etc TV channels in HD for less cost to themselves!! Hurray!! :thumbsup:

Great chess move on both company's part IMO. Go Leafs Go!

TIME TO BUY A STANLEY CUP BABY!

I'm really excited about this because unlike the teachers pension plan who couldn't care less about winning and only cared about profits Bell and Rogers will push hard for a winner because a winner on the ice, basketball court, soccer field, etc. is what will push their product to the masses and Bell and Rogers don't want their brand associated with losing franchises.
