    Wow. Always liked his insight into the game of baseball but if those allegations are true then he deserved to get fired. Dam.

    What surprises me is the amount of terminations amid allegations. It doesn't sound like there has been much investigation until the decision to terminate came. Might end up being expensive terminations, even if warranted.

    Presumed Gulity until otherwise proven?

    Not taking away from the seriousness of these crimes but a scary time to be a man in the media.

    Tip of the iceberg when it comes to the sports world and "inappropriate behaviour".


    Obviously we don't know what was said, but what's "inappropriate behaviour" anyways? Depending on the severity of it, was firing the easy thing for Sportsnet to do, or the right thing?

    All things get cleared up on if we know the full details and we won't ever, which sucks for us nosey people.

    This is what I was saying to some co-workers the other day. It's crazy how fast people get canned simply because accusations are coming to the top. Proof? What proof???

    I've noticed several corporations are dealing with this type of situation immediately which imo is the right thing to do.

    We will never know the true facts of these accusations but when personalities come out and say they are sorry for their actions, it is obvious there is some element of truth involved that justifies their termination.

    we're going off of a couple articles and a minute spot during the news. Pretty safe to say we don't know any details or how much proof they actually have. do we even know if Zaun accepted responsibility when confronted by management? Entirely possible he did behind closed doors but nothing has been told to the media yet.

    Zaunny still has "Analyst for Rogers Sportsnet" on his Twitter account bio. And he Tweeted out about 20hrs ago (1:30pm yesterday, and he was reported as fired roughly around 7pm).

    Curious when that will all get updated by Zaun.

    Wow... Interesting...

    If he was innocent he not comment and say no way? I have never known Zaun to not say what he is thinking when he is analyzing games. The reason that he did not comment makes me think there was proof, but that is just speculation and maybe he lawyer is a lot smarter than accounting folk like me. haha
