Pless was traded along with a whole whack of other Argos for Dunigan - who played for the Argos for how many seasons? Beauty to get an all-time great QB who helped win ONE GC; giving up an all-time great CFL linebacker as part of the deal = no.
Pless should have been an untouchable IMO; I really doubt BC would have refused the trade if the Argos had offered up another good young D starter instead of Pless.
Real fans should be wise to know their team history and be aware that management is capable of some very stupid/moronic moves that see great players traded away or cut or mistreated; and hope history does not repeat itself too often. Pless. Bennett, Neil Lumsden, Sowieta, etc.
