Bob McCown Biography

Bob McCown is one of the most popular and richest Radio Personality who was born on May 21, 1952 in Columbus, Ohio, United States.

McCown made his broadcast debut in 1975 as host of a nightly sports talk show on Foster Hewitt’s CKFH, where he had been working in its sales department since being hired the previous year. He would add to his resume in 1977, assuming adjunct employment as the public address announcer at Toronto Blue Jays’ home games during their inaugural season. In 1981, Telemedia purchased CKFH, rebranded it as CJCL, and switched to an adult contemporary format. McCown left that same year for Global TV in Toronto where in November 1981 he would launch and anchor Sportsline, before moving on later in the decade to host TSN’s The Business of Sports.

McCown has also been known for his 30-year standing bet with former Toronto Blue Jays president and CEO Paul Godfrey regarding an NFL team in Toronto. It was on a beach in the year of 1977 that the two men debated long hours about the subject. Godfrey to this day asserts that there will one day be an NFL team in Toronto, while McCown guarantees that there will not. Once a year or every so often, the debate is brought up again.
