Mike McCann, commentator - Steven Bradbury
Mike McCann is lucky to be able to combine his three loves - travel, sport and his home city of Sydney. He is an international sports commentator and journalist, providing him with the opportunity to travel the world to all the big sporting events while enjoying the magical lifestyle of Sydney in Australia. He's called the action at seven Olympic Games and many World Championships in countries as diverse as China, Russia, the USA, Argentina, Guatemala, Korea, Canada, New Zealand, Italy and Scotland -- to name a few. And he's published three books, hosted radio and TV programs and worked as a professional photographer. But his real love, as you will discover here, is the wonder of Australian life.
