    yes, net result just selling part of the team to rogers.
    Probably makes logistics, ticketing, etc easier.


    FYI: rogers is looking at selling its sports assets - Jays and MLSE stake. Bell probably has rights to buy rogers share, so 3 years from now its will be just LT & Bell owning MLSE. Rogers needs cash badly to upgrade its network to make its comparable to huge $$$ Bell/Telus spent on their networks.

    Rogers wants to sell the Blue Jays and it's share in Cogeco, nothing about MLSE, and I highly doubt Rogers would want to lose the Leafs.

    My first thoughts on Rogers divestiture of the Blue Jays. Also noticed an uptick on Argos discussions recently on Sportsnet. A huge step forward.

    Rogers said today that they're not selling the Jays.
