I certainly never said "hand the job to a woman." However, I believe it would be reasonable to let some of TSNs talented women take a crack at it. Simulations, including calling recorded games from the past, could be part of a trial.

There are virtually no Canadian football telecasts other than CFL games, so this notion that only someone who has called games at a lower level should be considered is nothing more than an artificial barrier preventing virtually anyone other than a handful of men from being considered. Radio play by play is not the same as TV, and even radio pxp of lower-level football is hardly prevalent in this country.
