Tough to ask a guy to retire when he knows in his heart that he has more to give. I doubt that he does retire, nor should he, IMHO.
Let's ask Allen Pitts for a second opinion, shall we? At least this time, Wally is trying to do the right thing considering that experience.

I'll give you some accurate speculation ..... your not from Squamish ... your from Regina :yes:

another ruse by a RF trying to wiggle JC back to Regina :wink: :lol:
Should he perhaps be escorted back to Riderfans.com then?

Didn't realize he was Hamilton's OC prior to this season.
Makes you wonder how he would do with receivers that can actually catch.

Danny Barrett
Tommy Condell (rumour has it that Austin may get rid of him)

Absent Cortez and Buratto, I'll take Dunigan.

The only thing I can think about here that might have been a motivator is $$$. Everyone here who thinks Maciocia has a long future as Eskimos head coach please raise their hand. Anyone? Anyone? Didn't think so. This is a far more direct path to the HC job than BC was. Actually, I blame you, the kno...

Most quarterbacks reach their prime age between 30-32 years old.
I'm going to nit-pick and widen this age range to 28-32.

I think the answer depends on: 1) Which coaches return. 2) Whether we can find the money and the stroke to get Rob Murphy back. Shutdown Offensive Tackles don't grow on trees. 3) Tyrone Williams. 4) The player personnel apparatus. Line continuity, kids, more than anything else is what matters in foo...

I would agree with Cromartie that Glatt deserved MVP and McCallum as Canadian
For the record:

McCallum as MVP

Glatt as OCP

Javier Glatt had eight tackles and 1 forced fumble. Was probably the best individual contributor on Defence.

McCallum as MVP

Glatt as OCP

1) Got to give the game ball to the offensive line for an outstanding performance. I'm out of adjectives to describe their play adequately. Just a fantastic job. 2) Geroy Simon. I won't go so far as to say he spent the whole game as a decoy, but the game plan was to have him switch roles and play th...

Who dug this one up?

You know the old saying. It rained every game day the Lions played at Empire, and it hasn't rained a single game day since.

Vancouver was made for a retractable roof stadium.

Calgyra.

But I agree with SM, if it is the Riders, and you can't beat them, you don't deserve to go to the cup anyway.
