Highlights from 1981 and 1982 games

I wasn’t aware that there was any highlights from the dismal 1981 season.

Minter's TD against Calgary and Cox's TD against Montreal were highlights. The fact the team was so bad inflated the value of the two late wins those plays produced.

How can you not call Dan Manucci a hi-light?

Dan Manucci....he started a game in Winnipeg late in the season as Holloway was benched. The outcome was predictable.

Fortunately, not many full Argo games have, to my knowledge, survived from that season except for a debacle at Winnipeg Stadium.

There was a strike at the CBC that year which resulted in CBC not televising any CFL games until September. Even that Thanksgiving Day game was televised by CBC in the Toronto area only, as the Expos were in the MLB playoffs and CBC showed them nationally. I only saw that game for the first time on YouTube.

By my count, only 7 of the 16 Argos games that season were televised.

I thought his name was Don Fanucci. Good old Condredge took good care of him outside his apartment.
