Former all-star running back Sean Millington has come out of retirement and the broadcast booth to join the Toronto Argonauts.
....

"I got the bug to come back to play football after Grey Cup 2004, began training in January and looking at my possibilities," Millington, 6-3 and 237 pounds, said in a release.

"I want to make a contribution. I have something to add to a team and feel very comfortable with the Argo staff, organization and players. I believe signing with the Argos gives me a great shot at getting back to the Grey Cup."

Wonder if the labour dispute had anything to do with his decision? Can't help but wonder if the recent lack of paychecks had an influence...

Personally I wouldnt doubt if he was disgusted with the CBC and their handling of the TO Esks game.

Plus, he retired way way to early. I assume it was due to injury or concussion - anyone know?
