Mann fairly soon but it is still a genuine difficult kick, right in the memory bank. The former Argonaut and St. Louis Cardinal fantastic died Wednesday and it brought back recollections of a guy's first CFL game, back when that man was a little man. Nine years old, to be precise. It was 1958, and a brilliant Saturday afternoon at Varsity Stadium sure, alas, two stadia ago for the double blue when my mother, dad, younger sister and I received to the game between the Argos and Alouettes late, with the pathetic Argos currently down by fourteen one I believe it was. But early in the second half this black blur whizzed down the west sideline cheap beats by dr dre right in entrance of our great midfield seats , faster than anyone I would ever seen, and carrying the ball with all twelve Als trying in vain to catch him.

There was only one at the time: no blocking on punts or skipped field goals. None. Twelve against one, with no protection, wasalthough in this situation 12 towards two. Mann was one of those American superstars who was lured north from the NFL or who, like Bernie Faloney, skipped the NFL altogether, simply because the cash and chance were each much better in Canada, especially for African Americans like Mann and quarterbacks like Faloney.
