He's still pretty young so he can try this out for a couple years and if it doesn't work out the CFL will likely take him back. I mean Damon Allen can't have another three years left in him.

haha! How True! - actually, I heard from OJG that he plans on playing til hes 50!
I wonder if he will go far though? He does have the tools but is he really a team player? That does go a long way in the end to how successful you are. He sure burned his bridges in BC - I don't know if I would have taken it any bette than he did by not getting the nod in that Grey Cup game 2 years back... but Buono is classic for going with his original starter for the big game! We would have likely won a couple more grey cups and Flutie was
our starter then!
But if he doesn't make it, I'm sure Hamilton, Toronto (they love guys like that) and possibly Winnipeg would love to get him!
... just keep him out of a red jersey please
