Summary

After 20 years of entertaining listeners and viewers, Tim & Sid is changing — Sid is moving on. Jeff and Elliotte are joined by Tim Micallef and Sid Seixeiro (19:00) to talk about their long-time friendship and work together. Dating back to their days as interns at Headline Sports, then cutting their chops at TheScore with Elliotte, and on to Sportsnet 590 The FAN and Sportsnet TV, it’s been a special partnership. What made it so special? What’s the next chapter (and challenge)? Did splitting up ever come up before? And what’s it like leaving on their own terms? The guys also discuss the sudden departure of Penguins GM Jim Rutherford (00:00) and possible candidates that could replace him. Watch “The Big Picture” with Christine Simpson ft.
