If there’s an MLB Playoffs or World Series game that night, at least I can watch the game online at sportsnet.ca and/or hear the game on Team 1200 if there’s no Senators or 67s game scheduled for that night. It’s all good. :)

A question for you Josh (if you don’t have the answer, that’s not a problem): for the Thursday Night games in October which will conflict with the MLB Playoffs & World Series, what are the chances in your opinion that Rogers will throw those games on Citytv?
