The Comedy of Sport on the Rolfsen Report: Sept. 6

We convene this week's Buy & Sell Panel, comprised of Jon Festinger, Aziz Rajwani, Sport Market producer Justin Morissette and host Tom Mayenknecht to debate what we're buying, selling and holding this week on the stock market of sport, with topics including the Blue Jays' odds of winning the AL East, the BC Lions' chances of making the playoffs at all, and which western Canadian captain is more likely to bolt from their current NHL team: Connor McDavid or Quinn Hughes?

With captain's skates getting started around the NHL and the opening of rookie camps right around the corner, sport business commentator Tom Mayenknecht takes a look at the steep price for tickets for prospect tournament games in Penticton, and how the Canucks can turn to charity to turn those ticket sales into a big PR win.

Tom Mayenknecht rolls out the latest edition of the Sport Market Podium, breaking down the top three stories of the week that was in the business of sport. Topics this week include StubHub preparing to hit the market with an IPO, the SpitGate controversy that got the NFL season off the rollicking start on Thursday, and Kawhi Leonard and the LA Clippers getting busted for cap circumvention.

Vancouver comedian Torben Rolfsen is back with his lighter side take on the business of sport, where this week's topics include a lackluster start for the Dallas Cowboys, and the news that NFL RedZone will soon be disrupted by commercials: "But hopefully just the most exciting parts of commercials."

This week's Buy and Sell panel is hosted by Tom Mayenknecht and producer Zach Clarke. They discuss the Canucks draft, how the Abbotsford Canucks success helps the big team, the Canadian angle on the draft, and more!
