    While never my fav Esk coach, the CFL did lose an icon. Sad to hear.
    I will not, for a moment longer, support an organization who chooses to cowardly kneel where they once fiercely & proudly stood

        That sucks, I liked him in just about every capacity he had in the CFL.

          I have to admit, of the many great men this game has lost, this is the first guy that I really had ever seen on the field/sidelines. It hits different...

          Thanks Ron for your commitment to this great game.

            Ironic that this comes at a time when the tobacco industry is catching heat for coming up the with exceptionally evil "flavoured" poison.

              Very sad news for the whole CFL. One of the true good guys in the game. Like Diesel said he wasn't my favorite coach but you had to respect his passion and commintment to the game. Like when a ref made him angry.

                Very sad. One of the best players ever.

                      Wilkie just said on team1260 that he heard it was a heart attack. It was probally caused by the cancer and its treatment.

                          One of the very best people, on the field and off. Heck of a guy.

                          Best wishes to the family.

                            Most wins ever by an Esks head coach.

                            Came up to Canada to play and never left.

                            Player, broadcaster, coach, and front office.

                            Great contribution to our game.

                              Probably one of the best-ever analysts in the CFL when he was on CBC for those many seasons.....
