You’ve heard him on the sports talk airwaves for years. When his name is introduced by a sports talk host it has a familiar ring, similar to when you hear Bob from Parkville and Ed from Arbutus. And you know that when he is given the proverbial floor you are about to hear a strong and thoughtful opinion that at times can venture outside the box.
You know him as Goomba.
For those who don’t know, the name Goomba isn’t a reference or tip of the hat to the not-so-threatening villain in the Mario video game series.
