So I sent my latest blog post to Ken King himself because he had asked at the lunch that if anyone was a blogger to identify themselves. I realistically did not expect his response for weeks, if not months, but definitely not hours. I sent him the email at 8:53am; he responded at 10:05am. This, once again, speaks to how Ken King is one of the most approachable and candid men in sports today. Here was his rebuttal:
"On facts, the Phaneuf comment was far more reaching in that I indicated respect for him, and highly qualified the best player on bad team quip which explains the facetious comment. On TV we were/are completely aware of the Shaw/Rogers process. The aspect of not knowing if they will be aired by season start is that it is determined by the negotiations (between them) which we are well aware of. To suggest we didn’t know possible outcomes or overlooked it is incorrect. Good of you to clarify facts. A good start on credibility much needed for the blog world. KK"
