So what if Henry takes the Stamps on a ride this fall puts up an impressive record and we end up hosting the Western Semi-final again? And what if yet again for the third time in a row he tosses up some ducks to be picked off by the opposition in the big game? Sound familiar? Will you be satisfied with his impressive regular season stats and want him back yet again for another season of September Triumpths and November follies? If so you must have been a staunch Robert Reichel and Kent Nielsson fan.
Futhermore how is Printers rusty? He has just spent a month and a half playing for a spot in the toughest football league in the world. Which judging by the procedure calls the Stamps still get must have amounted to much more practice time than Burris this season. What we're talking about here is swithcing out 330,000 of Burris salary for a rumored $400,000 for Printers who is much younger and already more accomplished in the CFL (2004 League MVP, Led BC to Top record in the league, and to the Grey Cup that year too). I say it's worth the gamble.
