So what if hes 32? Cahoon played till he retired, why not Fantuz? Future HOF and canadian talent. 3 years yeah, but to say thats it after that? If hes still playing well in his late 30s id love to have him in hamilton
I absolutely agree :thup: :thup: Andy has had a GREAT season and to this point has remained totally healthy. Just 2 more games to go to stay that way before the playoffs!
Can't find the article where I read it this morning, so can't post a link, but I'm pretty sure that with last night's performance, Andy Fantuz broke the Ticat record for number of catches in a season previously set by Darren Flutie, 98.
Andy's plays like he did years back. What the hell did he do over last winter. Don't tell me he worked very hard and got himself in incredible shape. Andy's a super star. :thup: :thup: :cowboy:
He's 32 , we need to lock this guy up for 3 more plus an option, Hamilton has a terrible record when it comes to being loyal and respectful to it's veterans
I was one of those questioning Andy's value after last season. Think about it - due to various injuries (some were flukes, but he had hamstring problems a few times) he played in barely 2/3 of the games during his tenure. There is absolutely no doubt that Andy's an elite competitor, he catches virtually every pass in his catching radius, most of the time over the middle taking HUGE hits, and is an amazing leader on this team.
From a business standpoint, IMHO, it was time to seriously think of playing this season without Andy. Nobody is more overjoyed than I that he proved me wrong.
I hate the way guys like EG: Dave Stala were treated but the excuse is that’s the business end well do it with some class ?! Andy is on fire this year hope he retires a Ticat
