Finally: MBG

Mike Burke-Gaffney, who retired Tuesday after 29 years in the Toronto Sun newsroom, gets a "finally" in Rob Granatstein's column today.

Editor Rob writes:

"Finally, the Sun said goodbye to one of its longest (and longest-serving) drivers this past week. Managing Editor Mike Burke-Gaffney retired and will now restrict his driving to the greens, giving up the daily marathon QEW commute. MBG, as he's affectionately known, is one of the great behind-the-scenes journalists here at the Sun. He also manned the ship on the Sun's most successful nights - Blue Jays' World Series victories. Like all of our recent departees, MBG will be missed in our newsroom. Hit 'em straight, Mike."

Exactly.
