Which ex Canadian international could do the PBP? Dolan is decent but all the others I've heard just arent good enough (Hume, Bernier, Brennan, Edgar...). Say what you will about Caldwell but he's clearly competent in that role. 

My views on this are not the same as Pesch. I think having more Canadian in the top jobs in the sport, on the broadcasting side, is also important. Not so much about ex-MNT players getting gigs, but about Canadians getting a chance in all areas of the sport. For the WC in 2018, it was all Brits except De Vos most of the time.

As for Caldwell, I'll agree to disagree. And for many new listeners, it will take at least a half of football to decipher what he's saying.

Even better fight back from love-40! Two games to go!

Wow!

No matter what happens against Croatia, I never thought we'd win the Davis Cup a few minutes before kick off of our second World Cup match.  Man, I'm going to have to have a wiz during the Croatian anthem.

[vancanman]

Didn't drop a set in the final.
