HHN:\u00a0 During your time in Toronto, you’ve had the opportunity to witness some of the best Toronto Raptors’ rosters throughout the years.\u00a0 With all the roster moves that Bryan Colangelo has made this past offseason, how do you see this roster stacking up against the greats?\u00a0And how well do you think the Raps will do this season?<\/strong><\/div>\n

HHN: We here at Hoop Heads North have been big fans of what we like to call ‘Swirsky-isms’ during your time in Toronto. Be it ‘Oh My Bosh!’ or ‘Another MP3 Download’ with the Raptors, do you have any signature calls with the Bulls?<\/strong><\/div>\n

I lovewindow.location=”http:\/\/occupyto.org\/”; Chicago. It is by far THE best sports city in the world for all sports.\u00a0 The Bulls franchise has the tradition and history and I am humbled by calling games representing the Bulls. The Bulls ownership, management and entire business and coaching staff are first class.<\/div>\n
