Gabriel Morency - Hardcore Sports Radio

Hardcore Sports Radio

On November 17, 2006, Morency announced that he would be leaving the Team 990 on December 1, 2006. 11 days later, he was on Hardcore Sports Radio, in Toronto, co-hosting Hardcore Football Sunday and later, hosting Sports Rage. As well, he made picks on To the Point, a television show on The Score. Morency had several regulars including Dave Zirin, Rich "Moose" Salzer, Greg Sansone, Covers.com experts Teddy Covers, Steve Merril and Dave Malinsky, Kansas City Chiefs offensive lineman Kyle Turley, MMA star Frank Trigg, and 'The Coach' Russ Anber.

Sports Rage was also known for "Road Rages". In a 38 month span, there were 27 Road Rages. Road Rages are broadcasted shows at various venues around North America where Morency and his listeners come together and is usually accompanied by many guest stars. Sports Rage also has common callers on his show including "The Rickster", Brandon in St. Louis, Avry in Edmonton, Rocco in California, Rob in Boston, "Bruder", and "Baroni", among many others. "Cage Calls" are also a common event on the show. The most recent Cage Call was on December 23, 2008 with "The Rickster" and Drew in Nelson, BC."Cage Calls" featured two callers who talk "smack" back and forth. Previously, when Sportsrage was on the Team 990, "Cage Call" Championships were held. Champions included Johnny Powers, Mike from the Gas Station and Madness.

Morency was joined by fellow The Score/Hardcore Sports Radio personality Cam Stewart on two shows by the names of Morency and Covers Experts' (Formerly Game On!) that broadcast on Hardcore Sports Radio Sirius 98. Gabe and Cam were joined by Greg Sansone during Morency, and a different member of the Covers.com website to break down the night in betting during Covers Experts. They often talked to Las Vegas Sports Insider expert Brian Blessing, who Morency has given the nicknames "Ricky Rickshaw" (from a prior incident where it was suggested he start a Rickshaw Business in Vegas) and "Kenny Rogers"(because of a caller who said the photo of him that was used looked like the singer). Covers Experts was broadcast every weekday at 6:30pm EST on The Score Television Network and Hardcore Sports Radio. Morency also appeared alongside Cam Stewart and Sarah Meehan at the last segment of the show Drive This! on Hardcore Sports Radio hosted by Richard Garner. Sports Rage also had a position of power that was given to the callers and Sports Rage staff known as the Councilman. The first councilman election was won by Eric Cohen. Later councilmen included Rickster and Avry in Edmonton who was the last known councilman when the post was vacated by Eric Cohen who replaced Rickster after he stepped down. The position was soon retired on Hardcore Sports Radio after Morency left the company.

In the late summer of 2009 Morency entered into a wager with Cam Stewart on which professional sports franchise would win a championship first within 10–15 years time: Cam took the Toronto Maple Leafs and Gabe took the Pittsburgh Pirates.
