    I can see Hardy celebrating his retirement with a few snowballs.....
    Before you insult a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way, when you insult him, you'll be a mile away, and have his shoes.

        Well, at least Hardy can scour the online date sites full-time now.

            I wonder if Diesel has booked his flight yet for the Chris Hardy jersey retirement ceremony?

                  It seems O'Shea is not retiring. The Argos it seems were just kind of pushing these three into retirement. Hardy and Folk hanged them up as expected, but O'Shea still wants to play but isn't making any plans anywhere.

                  I usually don't like going after old veterans, but if the price is right I wouldn't mind picking him as a filler for where Coe is right now. He's Canadian, experienced, has no problem playing special teams and just wants to win.

                    What is up with all the dissing of Chris Hardy here. If you watch the press conference on TSN, he thanked Edmonton Eskimos for drafting him and starting his career. Maybe he wasn't the starting safety here, but he was a class act neverthless.

                      He, Fabian Burke and Michael Jean-Louis are the three worst eskimos I have ever had the miss pleasure to be forced to pay money to watch.

                          Yes, we traded him to Hamilton in 1993 for the second incarnation of Damon Allen.

                            He's NOT retiring. He's been released.
