I agree he was very good, so much better than Suitor's tired old approach.
Luke Wilson was fantastic IMO. Defensive CFL fans are so easy to get upset over nothing.
Suitor has to go. Babbles for the sake of babbling.
This gem from him near the end nd of the first half last night3
Trevor Harris is closing in on 300 yards in just a half.
Rod Smith: he’s at 196 right now.
Suitor is such an idiot
Dud Suitor actually say "Suitor is such a idiot"? I hope so, for his sake.
Hahaha. I’m not great when working off my phone. I will fix that

You should talk! I managed to say "Dud" Suitor instead of "Did." Perhaps a Freudian slip?

*Luke Willson. People forget the double l.
I actually enjoyed him on the broadcast and much preferred than his little thought box last year between plays.

I actually really liked the way he worked with Duane Forde in a 3 man booth last week. I would welcome more of that.

You can't just say people who aren't fans of Luke Willson are upset, defensive and worried about nothing, only to turn around and go off on Glen Suitor being a problem.
Glen Suitor has dedicated a huge part of his life to the CFL. I grew up listening to him and I like hearing him announce games. I don't ever recall him calling the Argos trash.
I wouldn't be happy if Mike Hogan were replaced with someone younger, more hip and who played in the NFL.

Mike Hogan doesn't constantly harp on two or three "themes" he has chosen ahead of the game, regardless of whether or not they are relevant to the game as it actually unfolds. Suitor does that. He (Suitor) also provides only a fraction of the insight into what's happening on the field that we get from Willson, Lapolice and (to a lesser extent IMO) Forde. It's great that Suitor has dedicated a huge part of his life to the CFL. His passion for the game is clear. But that doesn't mean he's entitled to a lifetime job announcing its games. If better commentators come along, he can and should be replaced. On the early evidence, Willson appears to be a better commentator. TSN presumably thinks so as it has handed him the primary spot on FNF.

By that analogy, John Wells should still be calling games on the network.
I have all the time in the world for Suitor doing radio hits talking about the league. I just can’t take him as commentator in the booth. At least he doesn’t say you can still get in 5 or 6 plays with 15 seconds left in the half any more.

Willson is IMO way better than LaPo - who babbles same old CFL offence cliches over & over again, like he's talking to people who are watching their first football game; also talks too much..
Suitor is useless - due to the obvious reasons listed here - and should have been replaced long ago.

^^^^^^Agree with all of the above^^^^^^
Suitors act has become rather stale, in truth he hasn’t been very good for the last several seasons which becomes more evident when you hear Willson’s insight in the booth.

Suitor is in this weird position. Rider fans think he's biased against them, rest of the league thinks he's biased for the Riders.

The rest of the league is correct.

Why do Rider fans think he's biased against the Green & White?
