A huge honour to win a Canadian Screen Award for Best Sports Play by Play announcer. Thanks to everyone at
@TSN_Sports

Another two major tournaments in the books! Thanks for watching over the last month as we brought you

@CopaAmerica
on
@TSN_Sports
. A privilege to be part of such a great team on and off camera.
On this day 4 yrs ago, John Herdman took charge of his first match as
#CanMNT
head coach. It was a 1-0 win vs. New Zealand in Murcia, Spain, with an official attendance of 75. Tonight Canada can qualify for the World Cup. Quite a journey so far, and they’re just getting started!
I was reminded this week that I’ve been working at
@TSN_Sports
for 10 years now! I’m often asked which games I’ve enjoyed commentating on the most, so I figured I would put together a list. Here are my top 10 games from the last decade....
A full desk today! Great to welcome
@TorontoFC
’s former Italy international and Euros winner Federico Bernadeschi to the
@TSN_Sports
@EURO2024
panel today.
From 6 years ago today. A team that had a clear identity and played with a style that would get the fans off their seats on a weekly basis. Almost hard to believe this is the same club right now. Huge decisions ahead for those given the privilege of running
@TorontoFC
.
Average audience of 1.3 million watched
@torontofc
win
#MLSCup
against Seattle on
@TSN_Sports
. Peaking at 2 million as Vazquez made it 2-0 late in the game. Thanks for watching this season!
Matchday at Ahmad Bin Ali Stadium in Al Rayyan. All set in the commentary position for the biggest match in the history of Canada’s men’s national team.
@CanadaSoccerEN

Excited to accept the invite to join
@Markham_SC
Board of Directors. A real privilege to help lead one of the biggest community soccer clubs in Ontario and grow the game in my hometown. I promise not to do play by play of board meetings.
Great to be back at BMO Field for the first time since last summer, and even better with fans back in the stadium! Looking forward to having

@TheCdnAcademy
As
@lufc
get set to return to the
@premierleague
, I found this in a box of old footy things today. Norman Hunter‘s season pass from the last time Leeds were in the top flight in 03/04 when he worked with me on
@BBCLeeds
. Wish he could be at Anfield to see their return.
@apopey
What a night at Stade Saputo! The place was rocking.
@cfmontreal
moving on to the

Eastern Conference Semi Final, and another impressive performance from young Canadian international Ismael Kone.

@stevocaldwell
and Julian De Guzman for post game analysis on

“Two years ago if someone told me this I would be like, yeah you’re lying. Dreams do come true.” Canadian international Alphonso Davies, UEFA Champions League winner. Great day for the game in our country!
Thrilled to receive a Canadian Screen Awards nomination as Best Sports Host for our coverage of
@FIFAWorldCup
. It's great to see recognition for all the hard work of our
@TSN_Sports
team. To be named alongside these legends of our industry is a huge honour.
For every
@TorontoFC
goal scored during the
#MLSisBack
tournament, I will give a shout out to a Healthcare Hero during our
@TSN_Sports
broadcast. Just a small way to recognize those helping keep our communities safe. Send me names/jobs of people you know that deserve a shoutout!
What a night at the

U9 Boys players to share videos of whatever soccer activities they’re doing at home to try and help the team stay connected even though they can’t be together.
@OntarioIsSoccer
Checking out Canada’s
@FIFAWorldCup
group opponents Croatia in Nations League action against Austria tonight at Ernst-Happel Stadion in Vienna with
@stevocaldwell

A great time working with the fantastic TNT/HBO team and
@USWNT
at the She Believes Cup! Now headed back north to kick off my 17th year working
@MLS
games as the season gets underway on TSN on Saturday night.
We’ve seen some great individual DP debuts in
@MLS
over the years but Lorenzo Insigne and Federico Bernadeschi helped take the performance from the whole
@torontofc
team to a another level. A night to remember down by the lake, capped by this special goal.
Love the new identity of
@yorkutdfc
! Great job on the rebrand by
@gusmcnab
and his team, and the jersey is spectacular. A very positive step forward. Big day for soccer in York Region and the GTA.
Never thought when we held my son’s birthday party here, or was coaching his team’s games that I would be back at SoccerCity to get a drivethru vaccine! Awesome job from
@townofws
and everyone involved.

It’s win or go home for Canada tomorrow here in Paris! Great to be at an iconic football venue for the

in studio for the pregame show kicking off at 7et/4pt.
Happy Canada Day! What a country! There’s nothing better than having the privilege of calling Canada games. This was in Vancouver in 2016 ahead of the men’s World Cup qualifier against Mexico at

@Markham_SC
@L1OMens
team
@ALLIANCE_UTDFC
in playoff action! Great foundations in place to keep growing the game!
There’s never a bad time to see this goal again.... On this day two years ago, Zlatan’s 500th career goal, and it came on Canadian soil. One of my favourite career moments behind the mic.
Always happy when people bring food to the broadcast booth! It was great to be able to help promote
@SpecialOCanada
Global Day of Inclusion with 100% of proceeds from this special donut from
@TimHortons
supporting Canada’s Special Olympics athletes!
Join me with

Had the privilege of helping deliver a truck load of food donated by our
@Markham_SC
family to Markham Food Bank today. The Food Bank has seen requests rise by 80% in recent times. It is run by an incredible team of volunteers, and serves 2000 people (800 families) each month.
Looking forward to being behind the mic as our Olympic champions head to England! Canada’s games against England, Spain and Germany will be live on
