It makes sense that CBC wants that as their lead guy.

Personally I say Chris Cuthbert is the best. I'd also rather have Gord Miller than either of Hughson or Emrick; I've been listening to him call the Pit/Rags series and aside from Pierre McGuire (whose annoyingness is overblown anyway) it's really a good broadcast.
