The Sports Network (commonly known as TSN) is a Canadian English language cable television specialty channel and is Canada's leading English language sports television channel. TSN premiered in 1984, in the second group of Canadian specialty cable channels. Essentially designed as a Canadian version of ESPN, the extremely successful American all-sports cable channel, TSN remains the top-rated service on Canadian cable and satellite television owned by CTV Speciality Television Inc.

History Licensed by the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) on April 2, 1984 as Action Canada Sports Network, the channel was launched on September 1st of the same year as "The Sports Network", or "TSN". TSN was originally the property of Labatt Brewing Company, partly to help market the company's flagship products but also to act as a vehicle for the Toronto Blue Jays baseball team, also a Labatt property at that time. Labatt was forced to spin off TSN once it was acquired by Interbrew to satisfy foreign ownership rules. As of 2005 most Blue Jays games were again on a service affiliated with the owner of the team, but that service is now TSN's chief rival, Sportsnet. Image File history File links Oldtsn. ...

Today the majority owner of TSN is CTVglobemedia, which became CTV's parent in early 2001. ESPN retains a minority share, and as part of that restructuring in 2001, got CTV to agree to change the name to ESPN Canada. That change never went through, partly due to the popularity of the TSN brand in Canada but primarily because the CRTC, Canada's broadcasting regulator, refused to allow the name change. ESPN also firmly denied occasional rumours that it would consider outsourcing production of their flagship sports news show, SportsCenter or other studio shows to TSN, the way Fox Soccer Channel's Fox Soccer Report is produced by CKND-TV (a Global Television station) in Winnipeg. The CRTC did permit ESPN to retain some input on the direction and look of TSN. That decision resulted in ESPN redesigning TSN's logo to look somewhat like its own. âBaton Broadcastingâ redirects here. ...

The Globe and Mail recently reported that CTVglobemedia is bidding $1.4 billion over 10 years for full Canadian broadcasting rights to the National Hockey League, which would include cable and over-the-air rights in both English and French, i.e., coverage on CTV, TSN and RDS. This would not affect regional rights, which are controlled by the teams and held mainly by Sportsnet. It is expected that CTV would not air playoff games as regularly as does CBC Television, due to other programming commitments, but additional games could air on TSN2 and the NHL Network, another CTVglobemedia outlet[1]. However in March of 2007, CBC Television retained the rights to Saturday night games in a new contract with the NHL. The Globe and Mail is a Canadian English-language nationally distributed newspaper, based in Toronto and printed in six cities across the country. ...

Alternate feed As a result of occasional blackouts for TSN programming, as well as its regional coverage for Toronto Maple Leafs games which is restricted to Ontario, in 1997 TSN was allowed to set up an alternate feed to air in place of the main TSN feed in designated areas.[2] This alternate programming can make up a maximum of 10% of the TSN schedule - an average of 2.4 hours a day. The examples and perspective in this article or section may not represent a worldwide view. ...
For other uses, see Toronto Maple Leafs (disambiguation). ...
In fall 2006, TSN was allowed by the CRTC to air multiple feeds nationally[3], with the alternate feed only available on digital platforms, as had previously been permitted for Sportsnet. In essence this means that for digital cable and satellite subscribers, TSN has two channels on which to air programming. The broadcaster's use of the alternate feed has changed significantly since this decision - the alternate feed now airs a much larger number of live events that can be aired nationally when the main feed is carrying another ongoing event. Digital cable is a term for a type of cable digital television that delivers more channels than possible with analog cable by using digital video compression. ...
Direct broadcast satellite (DBS) is a term used to refer to satellite television broadcasts intended for home reception, also referred to as direct-to-home signals. ...
The alternate feed has sometimes unofficially been referred to in the media as "TSN2".[4] However, due to the 10% limit on alternate programming, it is not a direct equivalent to a channel like ESPN2, which carries a completely separate 24-hour schedule from ESPN proper; in fact the ESPN channels occasionally air split-feed programming themselves. ESPN2 debuted on October 1, 1993, as a sister station of ESPN. Nicknamed the deuce, ESPN2 was to be branded as a network for a younger generation of sports fans featuring edgier graphics as well as extreme sports like motocross, snowboarding, and BMX racing. ...
Programming
TSN is partially owned by ESPN. The appearance of the "BottomLine" ticker and logo are identical on both networks, although during SportsCentre, TSN uses a larger ticker resembling the one used on ESPNEWS TSN's flagship program is a highlights and sports news show that airs several times a day. Prior to fall 2001, the show was called Sportsdesk. As part of TSN's corporate restructuring in 2001, ESPN licensed the name SportsCenter and its SC logo to TSN (and permitted TSN to Canadianize the name by spelling it SportsCentre). In the fall of 2001, TSN dropped the name Sportsdesk and replaced it with the ESPN-branded SportsCentre name and SC logo. TSN's news studio was then redesigned to look like ESPN's and even promo commercials were recorded that resembled those used by ESPN to promote its SportsCenter. In 2006, TSN built a new studio to support high-definition broadcasts and on September 25, SportsCentre became the first daily newscast in Canada to be broadcast in High Definition.

Hockey TSN bills itself as the 'home for Hockey' in Canada. TSN holds the national rights to broadcast the NHL in Canada except for Saturday nights and playoff games involving Canadian teams (those rights belong to CBC for their Hockey Night in Canada program). On Wednesday nights, they enjoy "exclusive" rights, meaning no regional NHL broadcast in Canada may compete with TSN's. Their broadcasts on this night are branded Wednesday Night Hockey. Their entire NHL package is branded the NHL on TSN. They also air regional games for the Toronto Maple Leafs that are only available in Ontario, except for the Ottawa area. The remainder of the country receives alternate programming in those cases, usually a simulcast of the NHL Network because Toronto accounts for so much of TSN's national audience.

Wrestling TSN featured live professional wrestling in the form of World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE)'s flagship show, RAW for over a decade. However, the WWE Raw program, which aired live, occasionally had been censored live for extremely violent scenes, or when female wrestlers or characters were assaulted by male wrestlers. These actions are supposed to be in order to meet Canadian broadcast standards, with repeat broadcasts often more heavily edited. For the video game, see Pro Wrestling (video game). ...

It was expected that in fall 2006, when TSN started airing the ESPN iteration of Monday Night Football (as well as the NBC Sunday Night Football games), that WWE RAW was expected to air on tape delay during the NFL season. However, WWE decided to move the program to The Score rather than air on tape delay, although RAW continues to air on tape delay on The Score by 15 minutes, for editing purposes in addition to limits on the amount of live programming the Score can air in a week.

Criticism | | This section does not cite any references or sources. Please improve this section by adding citations to reliable sources. Unverifiable material may be challenged and removed. (July 2007) | Outside Ontario, critics jokingly call TSN the Toronto Sports Network, and charge it with a bias towards Toronto teams. This is an extension of the general criticism within Canada that government and national networks focus on Central Canada at the expense of the rest of Canada. Some consider this to be justified, being that Toronto is the largest market in Canada. This perception has been taken advantage of by the network's main rival Rogers Sportsnet, which operates four different regional feeds so as to air more regional coverage of local teams. The broadcasting of events with limited interest in Canada (such as NASCAR) instead of more popular events such as Canadian Football League games is also a frequent bone of contention. This may be addressed by the recent approval of an alternate feed and broadcasting of all CFL games starting in 2008. When TSN aired the 2007 Telcel-Motorola 200, TSN chose to air it at a late night timeslot and abbrieviate its coverage of the events by cutting the period of time between lap 4 and lap 32 in the span of one commercial break. TSN has also at times, aired Bowling and Golf instead of Formula 1. Image File history File links Question_book-3. ...

The "Parking Lot" Presently, both TSN and its main competitor Rogers Sportsnet are based in the CTV complex in Toronto. Sportsnet, originally controlled by CTV prior to its acquisition of TSN, has been based there from the start and never moved out. When TV personalities, such as Darren Dreger, move from one channel to the other, it has been referred to as crossing the parking lot, or crossing the street. Some at Sportsnet have complained about feeling like "poor country cousins" to CTV and TSN at Agincourt.[8] Bob McCown, a radio personality for The Fan 590, constantly will make comments that executives from Sportsnet will throw bottles across the street. Sean McCormick, an anchor for Rogers Sportsnet, has said on the air that he has driven to work with his wife who works for TSN, Jennifer Hedger. âSportsnetâ redirects here. ...
