    I'm in the minority here, but I find it odd the bad rap Black gets as a broadcaster. Good voice, smooth delivery, good excitement.
    I get it, people don't like the fact he references guys as, "The former (insert NFL/American college team here)," but there are far, far, far worse broadcasters TSN and the league could choose.

    Rod Black is fine. He isn't the best but he isn't the worst either. He's basically become the Nickelback of the CFL:

    I don't have a problem with Rod Black. I actually had a harder time getting used to CC's high pitched voice. But hey I'm just happy I can watch all the CFL games.

    I really like Black, but not as a PBP guy. He does a great job on Raptors broadcasts hosting a discussion format with Leo Rautins and Sam Mitchell. I personally think he and Rod Smith should trade roles.
    It's us vs the rest of the country

    The new guy from the west, Dustin Neilson did a fine job this season. I can't help but wonder how many other talented Canadian broadcasters are out there?

    Agreed about Black. Just don't see him as a football PBP guy.
