Ronnie Pfeffer returns!

I don't think Pfeffer will last long. I'm thinking they don't want to tire LH and may be trolling the Ticats in the process. I don't expect RP to take up a roster spot for very long unless it's absolutely necessary (injury).

According to Frank Z's article today, he had a tryout with the Cats before the Argos signed him. His tryout must not have gone well, considering how bad their kickers have reportedly been in camp.

I was under the impression that he chose Toronto over Hamilton.

I can't believe that. He would have had a legitimate chance to be the guy in Hamilton. Not in Toronto.

"Canadian kicker Ronnie Pfeffer has signed a two-year deal with the Toronto Argonauts, per sources.

Pfeffer worked out and had offers from both the Hamilton Tiger-Cats and Toronto."

Perhaps, but you'll never get a confirmation on that. The offer from Hamilton may have been the tryout offer, and not an actual contract offer. I just can't believe any player would woulld purposely choose to sign a contract where he has less of an opportunity of winning a starting position. Not everything on 3 down nation is iron clad fact.

Lol, well if you can't believe it then it must not be true.
:-)

Perhaps Toronto offered him a better contract than Hamilton did.

"Meanwhile, Canadian kicker Ronnie Pfeffer, who was signed this week, will get a chance to play in the second half of Friday’s game. He has a tough assignment trying to unseat the incumbent, Lirim Hajrullahu, and the team won’t carry two kickers during the regular season."

I think I can call this one. Ron will stub his toe late in the game and be placed on the 1 game injured list.
