Going for GOLD tonight. 39 years ago...Canada had yet to win gold in the first 9 years of the even. Jan 2, 1982...that changed. CTV sent me to Minnesota to report. Here is that report....unseen in 39 years.

Few knew that Bomber legend Kenny Ploen was actually a bit of a poet. At his Memorial Service today his son opened an envelope that was still sealed, and included a note on the outside that read “NOT TO BE OPENED UNTIL MY FUNERAL” or something close to that. Moist eyes.

This is an incredible tribute by my buddy Scootch…..I only got to,see him play once, when Friar Nicolson and Margie took my wife and me to our first Bomber game….but I was fortunate to call him a friend after moving to Wpg.
Greatest and Classiest Blue Bomber of All-Time has passed away. QB/DB Ken Ploen, four time Grey Cup champion, turned down the Chicago Bears to sign with the Bombers in 1957. After retiring he and wife Jan made Winnipeg their home. Loved by all fans of the Blue and Gold. He was 88

Ref and linesmen schedule is determined months in advance and teams know there is no guarantee they will see them in the playoffs (if they make the playoffs) so they take the opportunity the final time they see a ref in the regular season.

I know it's the tradition I'm asking how they know if it's his last game or if he's actually retiring midseason
