I’ve still never seen a second of footage from the postgame in 2007 never mind the last two years Noeller and rebusrankin 2
JohnnyAbonny Posted November 21, 2023 Report Posted November 21, 2023 (edited) And I’ll add this..That was the last time I have the sound on for a game on TSN. That was atrocious, and their bar is very low. Whoever said it on here was right, football is an annoyance to the network. I love the CFL forever but I unequivocally hate “TheCFLonTSN”. Everything about it. The hokey gimmicks, the panel, the production, the forced “humour”. The inane and idiotic announce teams. The 2000’s era graphics. You get Rod Smith doing play by play when the game moves too fast for him so all he can do is yell the players last name slowly. Or Neilson screaming like a preteen. They’re a sports network who don’t have a single person, not a SINGLE one who knows how to call a football game. That **** channel and their **** broadcasts are wrecking the league. For me it even took a little away when we won in 21. Edited November 21, 2023 by JohnnyAbonny Deiter Fan 1
Booch Posted November 21, 2023 Report Posted November 21, 2023 and their pre game production of what they showed was garbage too...half of it was just repeats of what they offered up during the week....The CFL needs to go and market themselves to some competition who will put some legit effort into their product....TSN has got sloppy and lazy with the idea they have exclusivity...If you can get the same $$ value or more with 2...3 different Networks, who are able to be seen by any household in Canada...You go get that Noeller, JohnnyAbonny and Tracker 1 2

Noeller Posted November 21, 2023 Report Posted November 21, 2023 it was all very very very lazy. I, too, was disappointed. It goes to the lack of respect the network has for the league and its fans.... and the fact that they won't put the biggest game of the year on CTV is the icing on the cake. Some sort of arrangement that involves multiple networks would help a lot... JohnnyAbonny, rebusrankin and Booch 3

rebusrankin Posted November 21, 2023 Report Posted November 21, 2023 They really do need to put it on CTV at the very least. We need another partner but don't see who. JohnnyAbonny and Noeller 2

The Keith Urban calling the game fiasco was just embarrassing really. 6 hours ago, Noeller said: Of course he didn't.
