That trade was a great trade for us

He wouldn’t be holding the ball and trying to force it down field. Bingo. Brown is generally more cerebral as a qb as well. Zach is a force it down field gun slinger. He’s more susceptible to suffering from pressure on style alone. Browns release is quicker and he’s more efficient at reading the D.

Why Suitor is still employed baffles me.

Neilson would do well to have suitor taken away from him IMO.

He could be, but I’d argue at this point in his career he has more mobility and quicker decision making to overcome some of that poor oline play. In particular that pick Zach threw over the middle wasn’t because of pressure, he was just telegraphing it. Same with the underthrow that was picked in the endzone against the Als.

well the Oilers went into their reserve fuel supply and this was the result

not sure how this managed to jump threads… I always thought Wittman was unparalleled. The last 10 or so years of Cuthberts career I feel like he got near that territory. I can’t name another announcer on that level, not in Canada anyway. I always liked Mark Lee after those two, but not even close. TSN always had second rate announcers before Cuthbert jumped from CBC in 05 or whenever.

I agree. He reminds me so much of Joey Styles (wrestling announcer from the 90s)

I'd rather shave my head with a cheese grater while chewing on tinfoil than listen to the current studio crew. I didn't mind Neilson early on but he's really getting on my nerves now. His sing songy/halting delivery makes me cringe.

No kidding. I was out so I set the pvr to record the game. Good thing I was home before the end and noticed there was more game left than record time on the pvr. Lol...the replay on the Beggleton 2pt convert showed him burying the nose of the ball in the turf. Suitor - "and the fact he was able to get his hand under the ball to keep it off the turf..."

Bring Cedric Wilcots back, he's a Jr. imitation of Jeffcoat in style and he might still be here if they hadn't traded him away for Alden Darby.

His brother Slim was a darn fine yodeler too …

Danny Gallivan was the best hockey pbp announcer.. If Don Wittman had he been an American working on a US Network doing pro footabll, college or the Olympics then he'd be mentioned as one of the all time greats. He could do football, hockey & track & field at such a high excellence. To me, no one comes close to these two as far as sports broadcasters go in our country.

Don't care if his name is Smith or Jones.......get him in there.

Mills had one job. Not fumble. He did & it cost the Stamps the game. That Lions team are a bunch of yappy & arrogant pricks.

Bottomless Cup.

I’d argue Don Wittman was the greatest, but a Cuthbert is an extremely close second

I was trying to ignore you referring to a bucket hat as your child, I’m glad you clarified that.

Ftr my original post meant to say "lids" not kids.... Now edited. I don't want anyone thinking I'm THAT kind of crazy... (Just the regular kind that you already know about...)

Cuthbert ain’t what he used to be. Not even close.

Cuthbert is the best hockey and CFL PBP of all time, without question.

Laine has aged 25 years. Shave it off. Those locks ain’t coming back.

I’m just super picky about hats. To each their own. I really like the ‘47 Franchise cap on the Bomber store website right now fwiw, I might go pick it up.

My two favourite lids right now, both from The Bombers Store, are a royal blue snapback and a white/blue "courderoy" bucket hat. I'm 44 and never considered there was anything wrong with the snapback.... But it is also possible that I am WILDLY out of touch... Ha ha.
