I can't decide if I hate Rod Black more than Glen Suitor

I believe Suitor hates the Bombers and enjoys their losses.

Rod Black must meditate for hours to clear his mind of any scrap of football knowledge -- whenever he has breaks from his classes on "How to say stupid things!"

It's hard to choose.

That was one of the most brutal game I've ever listened to.  Who decided to team up those two morons?

Agreed those idiots provide no insight into the game and there were several contoversial calls made by the refs yet they brush off those plays and talk about how good Rod's hair looks.

Tough finish compounded by Suitor sounding like a pompous ass and Black saying Coal-Hurt all night. Painful doesn't begin to describe it...

Suitor is okay but Black is horrific.

You should get into sports broadcasting, Noeller. 

How Black has a job is beyond me. Suitor is crap too.

Glad im not the only one.. Both are brutally bad.

I definitely do not like Suitor more than any TSN CFL commentator.

To me its not even close Rod Black is a joke he should stick to Ice Skating...

Suitor can't hold a candle to Dunigan.

Yeah sorry about that I meant to write do NOT like Suitor.

Suitor is bad but it's widely agreed upon that Rod Black is the worst pbp guy in sports. His nicknames are stupid, he says stupid crap like "tucks it, takes it" when a qb runs with the ball and it makes me want to punch him in the face. He will say that a play depends on the spot if the ball is downed within five yards of the first down marker either way and it's just obvious he has no clue about football I'm any capacity. His voice makes me want to vomit.

The worst part yet was when he goes on shows like the morning show on 1290 people actually ask him football questions that are intended to acquire some insight and he just gives the stupidest answers which provide absolutely no value. It's embarrassing for everyone involved but I'm not sure why anyone would think bringing in Rod Black as some sort of football expert is a good idea.

I could go on about how atrocious he is for hours and hours.

Rod seemed to be extra bountiful tonight, someone needs to force feed him Quaaludes before going on the air.

The alternative is turn off the TV sound and turn on your radio. Then you can stomach a mouthful of a Doug Brown the entire game.

Black calling Chad Owens CO2 just made me want to throw up. Too bad Dunigan just can't slap him when he gets annoying like that.

This is a no brainer.  Black, definitely Black.

Definitely agree. Suitor doesn't stroke-out like Black does.

Suitor is only annoying when the Riders are playing, otherwise he's pretty good actually. Black is just awful tho and basically kills every game he is a part of. Suitor is only awful when the riders are playing because it's obvious he's a rider prider... If not tho, he's ok.

 

Black is the worst announcer TSN has by a mile... it's not even close. 

Black is terrible when it come to doing play by play of any sport. Suitor becomes even more unbearable when the Riders are winning, but the worst in Dunnigan, he tries to hard to be cool for a guy whose 54.

Suitor is the worst colour commentator on anything I watch.  Picks one narrative (likely what he was fed by a producer) and pounds it into the dirt all game long, regardless of what is actually happening in the game.  Pure garbage.

Unfortunately that shoutout from Charles Barkley to Rod Black earlier this year or last year probably bought him a few extra years.

 

TSN ," Whoa,  a famous athlete from the US recognized one of our broadcasters on an American station!  We need to keep that guy around!"

I don't mind Suitor. He's much less of a Rider homer as he was a few years ago.   He has a strong knowledge of the game but like Black he seems to glom on to a player and talk about him throughout the entire game.

Fixed that for you.
