Description
"When everyone else wanted to be Bobby Orr, I wanted to be Frank Orr" Mike Zeisberger has been working in the realm of sports journalism for about as long as the Blue Jays have been chasing their third title. Over that time he's covered a variety of leagues, teams, and topics, and has had his work featured in Bleacher Report, The National Post, The Toronto Sun, and is currently featured as an NHL Insider. This week he joins us in studio to talk about the changing landscape of sports writing, and the increasing fascination with the players' personal lives as opposed to traditional think pieces. How does a modern sports writer compete in this new world of headlines, hit pieces, and hyperbole?
