From 3DN about TSN broadcasts this year....

 

"The CFL on TSN is taking a renewed approach to its broadcasts for 2025.

 

The network’s panel will travel to all nine stadiums over the course of the upcoming season, sources told 3DownNation, including visits to Regina and Montreal in Week 1. Kate Beirness is returning to host the panel with Henoc Muamba and Davis Sanchez filling the main roles alongside her.

 

Paul LaPolice will also frequently appear on the panel, though he will also perform colour commentary for one game per week. As previously reported, longtime panelist and Hall of Fame quarterback Matt Dunigan is no longer with the network.

 

As for Milt Stegall, who has been with the network since 2009, there is no timeline for his return after the death of his eldest son, Chase. The 20-year-old died unexpectedly at DePaul University on Monday where he was a member of the school’s soccer team.

 

“Our CFL on TSN family is absolutely devastated over Chase’s passing. If you know Milt, you know that his family is everything to him, and we cannot imagine the pain he is going through right now,” said producer Chris Edwards in a statement to 3DownNation. “Milt is our brother and we are going to give him our love and support him in any way we can, and in whatever way he needs.”

 

During a broadcast teeing up the 2025 season on Tuesday, TSN dedicated its coverage this year to Chase’s memory.

 

TSN plans to flesh out the panel by rotating in active players, though it doesn’t appear as though this will happen every week. Players will generally make panel appearances during bye weeks, though there may also be opportunities for in-studio appearances when players are in town to play the Argonauts or Tiger-Cats.

 

Friday Night Football, a longtime network staple, will have a brand new presentation featuring fresh animations, graphics, and music. One source called the scope of the production “bigger.”

 

The play-by-play personnel at the network has remained unchanged for 2025, featuring Rod Smith, Dustin Nielson, Marshall Ferguson, and occasionally Farhan Lalji. Colour commentary will be performed by Glen Suitor, Duane Forde, and LaPolice."

You’re talking about X. I mean I’m irrelevant? Why? Cuz I’m not some clown on social media making hot takes for likes and views? That is forgotten 10 seconds later cuz ppls brains are all add and adhd and can’t remember 5 minutes ago anymore. My daughter don’t think I’m irrelevant by the way, certainly more relevant than social media constantly poisoning peoples minds. Here’s a challenge for you and when you complete it I’ll admit I’m wrong. Find 1. Just 1. But find 1 person who has actually gone or watched a cfl game cuz of what Luke Wilson has said. You can’t tho cuz that person don’t exist. 

You do it. I don't have any problems with what Willson says, You do. 

Woli is a healthy scratch for the TiCats tomorrow .

Biggie in the lineup for Calgary tomorrow.

My wife showed me some Insta post from him the other day where he seemed quite distressed (or at least very sad) about his current situation. Definitely not going the way he'd planned.

Life is what happens to you while you are making plans.

They showed him in an Als uniform playing... Honestly, I've never heard of the guy.

Yup. First thought was a dude I never heard of tried out for the nfl but nope.

Is his first name Moxie?

I think Woli is probably tradeable if we want him...and yes he would help us immensely in a role where he comes in for certain packages/situations and is great depth as he can play multiple wr positions

Plus ZC trusts him and knows where he will be in any situation when he on the field...so he makes ZC better

                                                              

If we give up a 7th or 8th for Woli, we will not be able to use those picks on ST aces.

Sadly

 

 

So this was discussed in the Labour Day thread but MOP, to me Arbuckle, Mitchell, Adams and even Rourke should be ahead of Harris. Harris is the QB on the best team but the others have been more outstanding. I also think Harris may win because the media will hype him like they did Milligan.

Not even joking - that's comparable to preseason pregame here.

^^ Good stuff...went well with my morning coffee

I've been to MANY games at McMahon over the last 18 years (...sigh...) and Mark's take here is super funny. They do have a lot of tailgating in their parking lot and area around the stadium (some people just stay in their tailgate and listen to the radio... Don't even go in to the games) but there is just nothing in the league that compares to a) what Wade has developed in the stadium tailgate area, and b) What the fans have set up all over th land near the stadium. I think a lot of people don't even realize how much tailgating goes on because it's not directly on the same property as the stadium....

Yep, I've tailgated in at least 8 different lots around the stadium (9 if you include the official tailgate area) and I'm sure there's more that I haven't yet.  I hope somebody posts video from a Banjo Bowl tailgate for this guy so he can see what it's supposed to look like.

Hey if you are going to give calgary credit for anything, their tailgate scene is really good.

Debate where it ranks compared to other stuff sure, but the fans who do the tail gating know what they're doing
