    These talking head hosts have no clue but can sometimes read a teleprompter, love the bobble head sitting next to her nodding in agreement.
    The ironic thing is this is the CANADIAN network that currently holds the CFL broadcast rights......they should be embarrassed!!!

    What Johno27 said!!!! Sportscentre and the Sportsnet equivalent have pretty much lost me. Both have hit the skids real hard. The young ones are totally clued but you'd expect more from someone of her age. They all try so friggin hard to kiss American ASS!!! TSN is basically ESPN North now anyhow. My punk sensibilities have me question most of our worlds mainstream shite at the best of times.

    Bigger isn't better. Oh and the Craptors still have done Squat!!!! No one will remember that they lost out to the armpit of the US in a few years.

    The guy she was co-hosting with is Derek Taylor who is a huge CFL fan and compiles some incredible stats about the league which he shares on Twitter. I guess that he didn't want to be confrontational in that moment.

    Im sorry Taylor doesnt get a free pass, he is an idiot for not saying anything. Especially if he is Mr CFL Statistics, "a CFL stat fetishist". hardly.

    So let me guess, TSN isn't going to address this. They're just going to ignore it and hope that it goes away.

    Bingo! - he's a wimp/pansy for not defending something he supposedly cares about so much from ignorance.

    Just like the people who are afraid to reply to wannabes in their work-place who mock or put-down the CFL; to each his own ways but I love to tell those types to have a cup of STFU and see what they have to say then. Big-mouth wannabes, like bullies, count on people being meek or not defending things they care about, and the typical wannabe clowns who like to run their yaps with really negative comments about the CFL expect to usually get away with it without being challenged - a punch in those yaps is good IMO.

    Totally true, you have to fight back (with facts) or the abuse continues. It's always funny to watch them back peddle as they are not used to having to defend the opinion and have no facts at hand to prove the point and are easily made to look hypocritical and stupid.

    The argument you hear often is "it isn't the best" and "I only follow the best" For the soccer people the argument I used was for years La Liga (Spain) and the Bundesliga (Germany) were rated better leagues with better players and competitiveness than the EPL (England). Does that mean you can't watch the EPL (or MLS for that matter)

    Just remember the people you are dealing with are attracted by puppy dogs and shiny objects, if you're prepared, they're easy pickins.

    You have to excuse her. She used to be the "hot" SC host. Now, I would say she's no better than 5 at TSN. She's obviously having a difficult time dealing with it.

    For the record, anyone that doesn't get that this comment was made in jest, is a complete idiot. Don't PM me about it.

    No, you're an idiot if you think it's funny to degrade women. I sent you a PM to avoid derailing this thread but so much for that.
