| CONGRATS TO WHITE YOU GUYS PLAYED WELL. TO MY TEAM GREEN, IM SORRY I PLAYED MY WORST GAME ON THE BIGGEST GAME OF THE YEAR FOR YOU GUYS. BUT I DO WANT TO SAY THANKS FOR INSPIRING ME TO PLAY AT A HIGH LEVEL AND BELIEVING WE COULD OF WON IT ALL.
I NEVER THOUGHT AFTER 18 YEARS IN THE LEAGUE THAT I WOULD FIND MYSELF PLAYING QB VS JOEY J UNDER THE LIGHTS FOR THE CHAI CUP.
ITS BEEN A GREAT RUN FOR ME AND ITS TIME TO HANG EM UP! I REALLY NEVER SAW IT ENDING THIS WAY BUT WHEN YOU KNOW ITS TIME TO GO YOU JUST KNOW.
I NEVER CONSIDERED MYSELF A GREAT PLAYER BUT JUST ONE WHO PLAYED SOLID, HARD AND COMPETED EVERY SNAP.(YES I DID PLAY BOTH WAYS FOR A LONG TIME...LOL) I WATCHED THIS LEAGUE EVOLVE FROM OLD SCHOOL PLAYERS WHO WERE GRINDERS, HARD NOSE AND COMPETITIVE AS HELL (AT, BOB, CHUCK, JR KIZI, ROY, PETE, RUSS AND MYSELF) TO SUPER FREAK ATHELETES THAT WE HAVE NOW. I LOVE IT !! WHAT IM GOING TO MISS MOST IS THE TRASH TALKING ON THE FIELD, THE VIOLENT HITS AND THE SPORTSMENSHIP AFTER THE GAME NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENED DURING THE GAME.
ITS TRULY BEEN A GREAT RUN FOR ME AND I KNOW THE LEAGUE IS IN GREAT HANDS WITH NEW YOUNG LEADERS AND SOME OLD DINASOURS STILL PLAYING. I AM GOING TO MISS THE TRASH TALKING THE MOST I CAN HONESTLY SAY!!
THANKS FOR GREAT FUN AND MEMMORIES CFL .... GOD BLESS

| You were always a crafty player and found ways to do the little things to help your team when they needed it most. You taught me about the league when Chris and I came in and I respected your abilities in whatever role you played for your team.
Your prognostication skills on our early Sunday monring games were always fun, and more, your trash talk legendary.
It's tough to walk away after a loss like that, but I give you credit for stepping up and bringing your team that far.
See you soon Batman!

| Wish we could have sent you off into the sunset mike, but it just wasnt meant to be.....you joined our team and gave us a spark that took us to the championship game...you should be proud of that..
we were able to win one championship together and nearly a 2nd....but the ride was greatt
The one thing I always respected about you and will miss is your confidence..no matter the situation or play you always had confidence in you and your teams ability.....
you truly will be misses!!!!

| Mike,
You did better than anyone thought you would at QB. The shake then TD pass in OT in the semi's was epic. Three things about you that will stick with me-
1. You would do ANYTHING to win.
2. When you made mistakes, you owned them immediately- no excuses.
3. You did an unbelievable job setting lines on the games.
