Posted July 16, 201410 yr comment_66872 Dunigan just announced on TSN Big Show that he's flying into Wpg and will be doing color during the Edmonton vs. WInnipeg game Thursday nite at IGF. I assume this means Gord Miller (who has great chemistry with Mattster) will be doing play by play. I don't know if the tall foreheads at TSN actually went thru the slog of doing an analysis of Rod Black's work last weekend but if they did they would have seen a guy who basically knows next to nothing about the game and is very willing to expound on it every friggin' play. The alternative hypothesis is TSN executives are dumber than Black (which is hard to believe but entirely within the realm of possibility) Black was goofing up on virtually every series. Something fierce. His best line "Its a first down or maybe its not?" The guy operates in such an area of uncertainy hip-hopping with arrogance. But Matt & G Miller doing the game is a nice reward for loyal viewers. And the 29,000 to 30,500 in the stands? You guys can always PVR the game and watch it later.

Miller and Matt are TSN's best football duo. IMHO. Black's incompetence is only trumped by his screaming and yelling for a 4 yard gain. I'm a fan of the minamalists, Pat Summerall, Jack Buck, Ray Scott. Let the play tell the story and stop faking excitement.
July 16, 201410 yr comment_66890 Cuthbert is still the best PBP man, AINEC, but Dunigan is a lot of fun, for sure. I really enjoy anything he's a part of. Just a good ol' boy...
July 16, 201410 yr comment_66893 Pat Summeral play call " Aikman drops back to pass…….. touchdown" I like Matt, a lot, he gets excited about the game, and knows what he's talking about. Best play by play guy for me is US radio network Westwood one person Kevin Harlan. Don't need the video with his game call.
July 16, 201410 yr comment_66897 I really appreciate this news, due to other commitments we gave our tickets to some friends and will be catching the game on the tube.
July 16, 201410 yr Author comment_66910 Its taken over 10 years but I suspect a few tall foreheads over at TSN have discovered their worst kept dirty secret. Rod Black knows very little about pro football and doesn't mind sharing his deficit....
July 16, 201410 yr comment_66911 Dunigan and Miller (or whoever) doing the game on Thursday has nothing to do with Rod Black.
July 16, 201410 yr comment_66920 Dunigan and Miller (or whoever) doing the game on Thursday has nothing to do with Rod Black. Indeed. Can't imagine CC and Suitor are missing the Ottawa game, so Black/Forde will be in Calgary Friday night, and likely jet over to Vancouver for the Saturday game.
July 16, 201410 yr comment_66922 Matt just loves to hear the sound of his own voice. luckily i like listening to him.. so hes got that going for him which is nice.

July 16, 201410 yr comment_66943 Hope Matt can control his on air language.... Why? That's the best part! Drinking game. Take a shot whenever Matty swears. I've got the Scotch!
July 16, 201410 yr comment_66950 Love Dunigan on colour, hate Gord Miller on play by play. If Miller would stop the bullshit trying to add his own colour commentary and just stick to play by play he'd be fine but no he's gotta inject his stupid ******* stories. "Hey Matt, who was the strongest arm you remember in the CFL? NO!!!!! You're wrong! It was this guy that I watched back in nineteendickety two!"

"Hey Matt, who was the strongest arm you remember in the CFL? NO!!!!! You're wrong! It was this guy that I watched back in nineteendickety two!" Agree, like Dunigan dislike Miller but its all better than Rod Black.

July 16, 201410 yr comment_66975 Well, considering he's from Sundre, AB he should be lucky that he has teeth... #MountainViewCountyProblems
July 16, 201410 yr comment_66987 Matt just loves to hear the sound of his own voice. We all know Rod Black's & we hate it.

Both were unbelievable characters on air.
