June 3, 201411 yr comment_53739 the problem is that he'll just be the set-up man while Schultz tells me "YOU WIN BY SCORING, Farhan, to WIN, you NEED TO SCORE MORE THAN THE OTHER TEAM." *intense stare into camera* Yeah how Schultz hasn't been booted out by now is just mind blowing. One of those absolute morons with no charisma who thinks he's bloody brilliant and a showman. Hate them so much.
June 3, 201411 yr comment_53743 Panel needs new blood anyway. Stale. Arash Madani would sure add some drama to the panel! BOOM!
June 3, 201411 yr comment_53752 Interesting to note that Randorf is actually going to Sportsnet as a PBP guy, and not a panel host. He's not a BAD PBP guy, per se, but I certainly wouldn't consider him one of the 4 most worthy NHL PBP peeps in Canada. Much better panel host, but I suppose everyone wants to wear the big boy pants and sit in the big chair.
June 3, 201411 yr comment_53761 Panel needs new blood anyway. Stale. Schultz & Climie were the ones who needed replacing. Even Milt isn't great on the panel(although I can't allow myself to call for him to be replaced).
June 3, 201411 yr comment_53783 Duthie would probably be the best replacement... I think he and most of the NHL analysts are sticking around so it would depend on his NHL on TSN obligations.... regional people like Lalji or Orlesky probably aren't in the mix but a guy like Scianetti could be considered.... I think I'd be happy if Rob Black was just not involved in the CFL at all...
June 3, 201411 yr comment_53790 I propose a panel of Rob Ford, Ron Burgundy, Arash Madani, Gary Lawless, Doug Brown and Mike Kelly. That would be some must see TV.

Orlesky and Scianetti are both awkward on live TV, Orlesky is fine on the sidelines for CFL, but really rough on the Jets broadcasts. Orlesky is actually really good on the radio too when she guest hosts, knowledgeable and clear. Can't see either of them getting the CFL hosting duties though.
June 3, 201411 yr comment_53828 They should get that dude they had on the panel on the night of the CFL Draft Mr. Personality!

Much better panel host, but I suppose everyone wants to wear the big boy pants and sit in the big chair. Who else would you consider? The only other guy I can think of who I could see on national TV is John Shorthouse. Beyak is brutal, Kevin Quinn too, Joe Bowen is probably a little too eccentric. TSN has Miller locked up. I don't think they are going to toss someone straight to national broadcasts who doesn't have experience doing regional work.

Keep in mind that other guys elected to stay in their current positions too ala Cuthbert, Miller. Wonder what Mark Lee is going to do now.
June 3, 201411 yr comment_53831 Marc Lee is much better a football than hockey would be a upgrade over Black
June 3, 201411 yr comment_53832 They should get that dude they had on the panel on the night of the CFL Draft Mr. Personality! this is the guy http://ca.linkedin.com/in/leebarette
June 3, 201411 yr comment_53833 my preference for the TSN CFL panel would be a combination of : (1) host - Lalji or Naylor or whoever (2) a former QB or a coach - Dunnigan or Lapo (3) a former offensive player - Climie or Stegall or Schultz (4) a former defensive player - not sure who... and I don't like Doug Brown on the panel.
June 3, 201411 yr comment_53835 They should get that dude they had on the panel on the night of the CFL Draft Mr. Personality! The poor guy always has the look of someone who just wants to fall asleep but keeps getting startled awake by someone/something.
June 3, 201411 yr comment_53846 Panel needs new blood anyway. Stale. Arash Madani would sure add some drama to the panel! BOOM! Madani would add drama to a daytime soap. New panel wishlist: Lalji, Dunigan, Geroy, and Climie. Stegall just didn't seem a great fit for the panel. Schultz likes the sound of his own voice too much. Climie does too, but there's substance... he's not afraid to take the contrarian viewpoint and back it up. Essential to have a heel on the show. Geroy would be a very interesting option. Respected vet with a lot of charisma.
June 3, 201411 yr comment_53847 Cuthbert is the best in the world, bar none but Miller isn't terrible. Hughson always sounds like a video game, Cole is half way to senile and Lee is just a moron. Randorf as the late game guy will be a massive upgrade there. Not sure why people don't like the Oilers Kevin Quinn...I'm a big fan of that guy. He and DeBrusk have a quality broadcast. So much better than the Flames its not even funny.

June 3, 201411 yr comment_53887 Maybe a guy like Chris Walby? Now that would be cool. Maybe not as host but he should be on that panel... http://www.cbc.ca/player/News/Canada/Manitoba/ID/2422224532/
June 4, 201411 yr comment_53896 Paul Freisen, he's got the look. And the brains to match. If the members here didn't like Friesen before, I can only imagine how much hate he'd get if he was the CFL on TSN Host.
June 4, 201411 yr comment_53910 It's a no for Joan McCusker, Mike Harris and Rod Black for me. Jay Onrait... Come On Down...
