I'm sorry but does our media, in this case sports media do zero research and fact checking??
Dominick Dorsey ran a FG back last night in the TO game. I have seen the highlights of it multiple times on TSN, and each time I saw it they said that it was Dorsey's first game in the CFL. WRONG. It was his first game with Toronto. He has played about 10 games now. He was a Rider for a full season (I think it was the whole season, I'm not a journalist I don't have to check this stuff out).
Just one example of them sucking, but there is not a week that goes by that I cringe at some story getting a major fact wrong. Step it up people.
I have no idea how some of these idiots get jobs in sports. Last night, on The Fan 960 (Calgary Sports Station), whoever was doing the sports updates stated that both Edmonton AND Calgary were last in their divisions. How the do you work in sports, and not realize that geographical rivals are in the same division?!
He said first game. I remember being confused thinking, "I thought he used to play in Saskatchewan..." After a couple of minutes I finally assumed he meant first in Toronto, because I couldn't be bothered thinking about it anymore.
geez, let's not start ragging on Cuthbert. He's the best we got and so far superior doing CFL PBP over Rod Black, Steve Armitage or Mark Lee, it ain't funny!
Let's give him the benefit of the doubt on this one. It was Dorsey's first Argo TD, first kick return TD, first missed field goal return for a TD, or whatever.
I wasn't actually talking about Cuthbert. I didn't see it live, so I didn't hear what he said. It was on Sportscenter that they said it was his first cfl game. There was no way to misconstrue it, they meant it was his first game ever. And they said it everytime it was shown, which was probably about 5 times.
