The TSN guys like Cuthbert and Miller are extremely unique talents, pulling double duty. Takes a lot of passion for the sport you're covering. I'm certain there's up and comers in the City who will hopefully get a shot one day. I actually don't mind Randorf doing hockey PBP on sportsnet, but his over use of "so and so just rubbed him out" when referencing a hit makes me chuckle and cringe at the same time Atomic 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any word who the remaining piece of the trade is (Player still heading montreal's way)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought he was getting much more then that. If thats true thats crazy good value. When the best OL / BPA at no1 this year wont be in camp at best, and focault is arguably better this may have been the move of the off season. Buono does it again.

Perhaps instead of trying to be the Rider super insider that all RFs revere, with mega sources and vital insider Rider information that he just can't share for fear of outing those sources, the Super Administrator over there should have been, oh, I don't know, actually spending some time being the site administrator?? So all their info and data is gone huh? Well I know one thread in particular that will live forever; the infamous Ridergirl thread over there that I copied and pasted into word and sits in my desk drawer on a storage drive.

It's nothing personal...I have zero doubts that Paul's a great guy.........but his PBP style drives me bonkers.

I've listened to plenty of american radio pbp guys listening to Sirius while driving, and there are a lot of equally or worse PBP guys as Edmonds, but as you said the "screaming at me" style isn't for me, sounds like he's gonna **** himself several times throughout a broadcast. I think that's where I like Irving above all else, he uses emotion to the point you can notice it, but it doesn't overshadow what he's talking about, which i find happens when I listen to Edmonds. I'm more distracted by his catchphrases and over the top emphasis on things then what he's actually talking about and it ruins my listening pleasure Noeller, Brandon Blue&Gold and JCon 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
