Haggert built a sports endorsing empire from Leafs years
Toronto trainer Bob Haggert, eight years with the Maple Leafs until 1968, founded Sports Representatives Ltd to turn athletes' fame into off the ice earnings. He partnered with NHLPA lawyer Al Eagleson and uses stars like Frank Mahovlich, Bobby Orr, George Knudson, and Joe Theismann to secure endorsements while stressing reliability and promptness in engagements. Theismann impresses Haggert with his drive and confidence about Grey Cup success.
