Duthie Breaks up with Tortorella

Awww, looks like James Duthie and John Tortorella have decided not to pursue a long distance relationship now that Torts has moved to New York City.

Seriously though, those two together were absolute beauties on the TSN panel. I don’t remember how many times I found myself sitting there watching the quiz, having Duthie throw out a question, and Torts saying something snarky like, “That’s a stupid question,” or “that’s so dumb I’m not even going to answer.” Sports broadcasting (entertainment?) at it’s finest!

Duthie wrote an article on his blog at the Ottawa Citizen, and he leaves us with his favourite quote from Torts, “You know, I love coming here.  I love sitting in our meetings, talking hockey with you guys, and watching the games.  I just…hate being on TV.”

What a beauty!
