    We have a huge problem here people! Bigger then anything with the team.

    I don't know about you all but I am very, VERY concerned.

    We were told earlier this year that Bryan Hall was stepping down at the end of this season.

    I have heard nothing since. The Esks are not promoting it, Ched is not saying anything about Hallsy's last season.

    I have a really bad feeling that it might not happen now. In fact , to quote my mother, " I' m just sick about it." Not really sick but DEAR GOD he has to be done!

    Please, PLEASE someone tell me that he is done after this season.

    To quote Kramer "Please Jerry! PLEASE! (Add head shake)

    I can't take another year with him. I just can't. I listened to the Stamps game on my way to Cowtown last Friday and wow! They call the plays, the colour people add to the game...it was refreshing.

    Please tell me he is leaving!

    please.

          When I wrote a letter to the GM of CHED during pre-season to complain about the broadcast, he informed me that Bryan will not be doing the play-by-play next year. Despite that statement, I have a feeling you'll hear more than enough of the man during Eskimo broadcasts. He might not be doing the play by play, but he'll be there one way or another - I just know it.
          Hope, at the end of the day connects us all, no matter how different we are

            Yeah I've heard Sexsmith too. Be a great hire.

              Yep, probably promoting ribs during stoppages of play

                It's likely he'll do the dressing room interviews after the games just so he can stay in touch (no pun intended!!) with the team.....

                There's no question that he has to go as the PBP guy and while they're at it get rid of Dave Campbell at the same time and get someone (an ex-player?) as the colour guy who knows the game. Farlie was great for all the years that he was there, but I suspect that he just got sick and tired of being Hall's sidekick and quit.

                Sexsmith would do a good job!!

                    Actually a combo of Sexsmith and AJ would work fairly well. You have Sexsmith who has the anchor experience and AJ knows a little something about the game.

                      Or talking over the PBP guy DURING the play.

                        Not to mention a little tough to intimidate if people don't agree with his commentary.

                          We for sure need someone that knows football as the colour guy.

                            IIRC Blake Dermott was doing color for Golden Bears games and did a good job as well. AJ or Blake for color man!
