Huh. To update a couple hours later, ole Justin has weighed in:
And a couple more sponsors bailed recently. Awesome seeing the pushback.
Ah, good ole Torts…
Poor, poor Flyers. 
Great look on Hayes’s face.

I don’t know, if I had to deal with Torts every day, I don’t think I could stay dry. Could you?
I’d actually love to meet Torts, have a non alcoholic beverage of choice with him. I’ve followed the Blue Jackets over the years, was at the first Blue Jackets game. He had a podcast when he was with the Jackets and seems quite active in animal rescue. But, yeah, if I worked for him, I don’t think I’d stay sober
I’d like to pound boilermakers with him and then start needling him.
