Pete Catan's Ghost

Quick Whit is just horrible. He should apply the same nicker to himself...only use Dim or Nit on the front end of Wit.

Hustler does play the straight man to GL's train wreck broadcast style well. Sort of MacLean/Cherry without Don's nationalistic likability.

I know Lawless is a baffling commentator and master confabulator, but he's really dropping them today. This is the first time I've listened to the 1290 pre-game show this year, so prior to this I didn't have a handle on how truly nuts GL has become. Regarding him seeing Chris Walby getting ready for today's game, Lawless says: "There's something unsettling about watching the mammoth hanging out here"...Huh? Unsettling? Was he naked? When comparing the coaching styles of Osh and Chris Jones, GL goes on a tirade about how Jones considers the media to be "something he would scrape off the bottom of his shoe" he says Jones "is bad for the CFL". I guess Gary has never had the opportunity to interview Don Matthews. If he thinks Jones is rough, the Don would have made him weep. So now I can't change the station...just waiting for Gary's next beauty...Great stuff.

Radio at the cottage...Real theatre of the mind stuff...I'd be happy to listen to it again, never mind watch it

One testament to Irving's skill on the mic is how well he operates with the revolving door of colour men he works with each season. Listening to how he feeds some of these guys is a thing of beauty.

Andy Fantuz is questionable for this Saturday. Although this is a good thing from a BB standpoint, a bigger loss for the TiCats could be running back C.J. Gable. With Gable out, Chevon Walker would start, and although Walker is a decent back, "he's not as solid in pass protection and blitz pick up as Gable". Hamilton might need that additional protection, or it could be a long night for Henry. http://scratchingpost.thespec.com/

Experience...and continuity. With a new safety in place, it would be very tough to unseat another incumbent. Another new guy means a heightened amount of unpredictability. Unless the new guy is overwhelmingly better, I say hang tough.

Great job guys. I'm happy to have found another option.
