'Why didn't Vaughn want to retire as an Eskimo?'

There are several theories, including that Calgary was the only team that didn't cut him, but the man known for YAC said there was a simple answer. "I never thought I should have left," said Vaughn, who got into a contract dispute with GM-head coach Wally Buono. "Me and Wally joke now about how he thinks letting me go was one of the biggest mistakes he ever made."

...releasing Vaughn always seemed to me like one of those ego-inspired things Buono was(is) so capable of doing...this pretty much confirms that suspicion....

And boy does that remind me of how Don Matthews forced Barron Miles out of Montreal…

And we thank you third for that! :wink:
