Simoni Lawrence retires

[ArgoGabe22]

Credit to Ticats and Simoni for playing all his career in Hamilton. Nice when a player can stay in one city for one team. Hope he has great retirement and congrats on a great career.

He was traded to Hamilton from Edmonton along with Masoli.

Hamilton really fleeced Edmonton in that player transaction.

Does anyone remember a documentary series about the Eskimos that aired around 2012? It followed the team for a few weeks or months. I can't recall where the series aired exactly although I think it may have been on CityTV. Anyway, the two memories I have about that series is how excited management was in recruiting Simoni Lawrence and the series spent a decent amount of time on Lawrence in his rookie season. The other memory I have is how Ed Hervey seemed annoyed with Eric Tillman at one point in the series. Hervey was Tillman's assistant GM at that time.

EDIT: Here's a clip from that series:

I remember that show. There was a promising lineman who ended up starting strong but had to retire with a leg injury I believe. I forget his name. He, like Simoni, was a rookie they focused on a lot.
