Milt Stegall's era has come to an end in Winnipeg.
The Globe and Mail's Dave Naylor confirmed reports on Friday that Stegall has informed the Blue Bombers he won't be back with the club in 2009. Instead, he will retire and end a brilliant 14-year career that was spent entirely in the Manitoba capital.
Winnipeg head coach Mike Kelly did not immediately return a telephone message from The Canadian Press.
Stegall is expected to attend a banquet in Winnipeg later this month, at which time the slotback would formally announce his retirement.

I never did like him, but he is one of the best. And he is always good against the Riders, so its good that he won't be killing us anymore.
He finishes with 15,165 receiving yards, with an average of 17.7 yds/catch in 187 regular season games and 8 playoff games
