So much to get to today including the usual craft beer preamble, Kyle Lowry’s return to Toronto and whether he’s the greatest Toronto Raptor of all time, the Toronto Blue Jays are ready to start their season and their manager has a new contract, the guys reactions to the huge WWE WrestleMania weekend, Canada finds out who will be in their group at the upcoming FIFA World Cup, the NHL discusses bringing back it’s own World Cup of Hockey, Auston Matthews hits the 50 goal mark for the first time and makes a little history for the Toronto Maple Leafs, the Philadelphia Flyers’ controversial decision to scratch Ironman Keith Yandle, rumors run rampant that the Ottawa Senators could be playing home games in Quebec City and lots more.
The Kyle Lowry as “Greatest Raptor Ever” debate is a fascinating one. Matt recently finished this book on the history of the Raps by Doug Smith and Doug did a wonderful job working his way through all the guys who could possibly lay claim to the title. https://amzn.to/3qVa0Or
