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."

Not likely he ever plays for them, but won't be surprised if he steps into coaching with the Stamps now instead of with the Bombers.  He must be blind, if he sees this move as extending his playing career.

Enough money will improve his eyesight.

Why do ppl think bighill wants to coach even. Obviously he’s not even thinking about that if he signed to come in to compete for a mlb spot.

doesn't he have a job in Winnipeg though?

 

He did, but I guess it wasn't that much of a priority for him.  Could be they also have offices in Cgy. I don't know.

It very much is a priority for him. He and the Pejovic brothers partnered up and moved their office just outside the city on Henderson. But it’s a job he can do from anywhere. And with the short CFL season he can work from the road and see clients when he’s back in town.

The Stamps are on a bye week. No need to add him to the active roster now.

Yeah no rush but given his age, injury history and level of play prior to injury - I think there's a good chance he doesn't make the AR, bye week or not.

The injury he got...his age...when it happened last yr and the requirements of his position with stop...go...burst...cuts....I have a hard time seeing him being worth it now...if he even ready yet.....and if he has to be wearing a brace to compensate for it for first while....good luck with that....tough choice to make the hang em up decision....but he should have signed a one day deal...retired here and slid into the organization in some capacity

Wish him well in the attempt and grabbing some last dollars....but it prob gonna tarnish peoples last memories of his ability on field

AB might be forcing others to say its over.

Good luck to him though, I mean that. I hope that one day you sign that one day contract to retire a BB.

 

 

                                                             

A year and a half removed from hoisting the Grey Cup. 🥺https://3downnation.com/2025/06/23/former-montreal-alouettes-player-coach-chandler-jones-dead-at-33/

 

Luke Wilson at it again on social media. He said the Argos-Rider game was crap despite the walk off KOTD. Too many penalties & qb sneaks. He called Bob Irving old after he criticized Wilson's take on the game in Toronto. Wilson said he still loves Jon Ryan even after his former teammate supposedly ripped him on a social media podcast yesterday. Is the Luke Wilson experiment working?

The guy is controversial in the traditional sense for sure. He does seem to know the X’s and O’s of the game and is as good as anyone out there rationalizing them. Us older generation May think he comes off as an asshat for his comments on what is bringing the game down , but just maybe this is what it needs to get the new generation more involved, I don’t know only time will tell. I get super annoyed when he talks of the major differences in the CFL as opposed to the NFL. Might there be something in it though that us old guys are missing and to get more youth to start following CFL the league might have to consider some radical changes!

The game wasn't terrible but the KO return ending really was cuz they missed a clear block in the back that should have nullified it. You hate to see a team fight to come back only to get corn-holed by the refs...I mean unless that team is sask.
