CFL Commentators and Personalities

Just curious, who else here can’t stand to see “Dirty” Davis Sanchez involved on the panel?

When that dude was playing, he took arrogant to a new level. Dirty hits, bad attitude.

In fact, I’m always hoping for Stegall to shut his mouth and mention how he hit with the intent to injure.

Thankfully, we don’t have Jock (God’s gift to everything”) Climie on the panel anymore.

What happened to Shultz?

I’m ok with Cuthbert and Ford, Dunnigan of course calling the game. 

Suitor seems to be have a man-crush on whomever the bombers are playing, or is it just me? Has he ever explained his famous "oh NO!" when Stegall Made "The Catch"?

I think the "oh no" probably stems from his history as a safety and the miracle that ensued.

I didn't care for Sanchez too much when he started, but now I can tolerate him. I much prefer him to Jock who I found quite annoying and usually anti-Bombers.

Cuthbert and Dunigan are my favorites but I've lost my appreciation for Ford who almost seems disinterested sometimes.

That's what I had always assumed, and understandably so. But he did color for another play by play man not too long ago and it didn't seem to make any difference.

I kinda like Sanchez to be honest...

I don't mind what he says... he's just not a good broadcaster... he's been doing it for a couple years now and he's still fumbling over his words and not able to articulate himself properly.... compare that to a guy like Chris Bosh... he was basically making his broadcast debut on TSN working the Raps final and he speaks on camera like a seasoned veteran...

In fairness, so does Sara Orlesky (worse, maybe....) and people go nuts for her like she's the greatest broadcaster ever. I just don't get it...

Strange, I noticed quite a bit of urban dribbling on his part.

Its cause she's foxy! Sara could stand there chewing tobacco and reading from the Quran and I still wouldn't look away. If she was out there looking like Mama June circa 2012 she wouldn't get a pass. Fair or not that's how the world works!

Really like Benevides and Sanchez is a growing on me. Forde really knows his football it would be better if he was paired with somebody at his level.

Anyone who goes by "Chez" or "Chezzy", I'm completely out on.....no thanks.

I'm ok with chez or chezzy- but if his name is linked to a vile sex act- I'm out.

stuff like this is just gross to me.....she's a mom and a wife. If you're older than 25, this type of comment is beyond creepy.

I like the addition of Bennevides and Sanchez is growing on me.

Which part?

Benevides is really good,  hope he stays on for a few more years.

The new PBP guy from last week I thought did a good job.  Hopefully he replaces Black in the near future.

Define "vile". Does it involve domestic livestock, peanut butter, trapezes, and/or mechanical devices? Asking for a friend.

I really miss the CBC days when Mark Lee was doing games. I wish there was a way TSN could pry him away from CBC so he could do the games Cuthbert doesn't do.

 

One of the plays I vividly remember him calling was the 2004 playoff game between BC and the Riders. Elijah Thurmon caught a late game TD and his dramatic call was great.

Caught an Argos home broadcast on Sirius about 2 weeks ago and Schultzy was doing colour.  He sounded VERY depressed.

But you knew the answer to your question even as you were typing it.

Oh geez tracker, I almost left the comment up here. 

By golly, I’m bilingual, English and Vulgarian.
