Blue Jays broadcasters and fellow collegues, Dan Schulman and Jamie Campbell quickly replied to his post wishing him nothing but the best and stating how great of a reporter he truly is.
Unparalleled in his craft and a top-notch human to boot. We'll miss you friend.
Wishing you the best Arash. You're a great teammate. The nicest Vikings fan I know. I look forward to whatever comes next for you.
Even NHL insider Elliotte Friedman who worked closely with Madani for many years took to social media to wish an old friend nothing but the best in his future.
Very sorry to hear, Arash. Love your work and your passion.
You will be great wherever you go
You will be great wherever you go
The reasoning behind the firing has still yet to be announced but it looks like Sportsnet was simply just pivoting and moving on from Madani.
