Posted November 17, 201311 yr comment_29313 ...so apparently the Stamps asked Doug Brown to come play for the Stamps after they lost some guys to injury late in the year. He told 'em no, 'cause Winnipeggers would kill him, essentially. Attaboy, Big Bird....that woulda been BRUTAL...

November 18, 201311 yr comment_29360 Hard to just give up his day job & leave on a moments notice to go to Calgary. Then there are the injury factors. As far as I know Doug retired fairly healthy. Being out of football shape he would be running the risk of getting hurt for truly not a lot of money. I can see why he never came back. He also has no playing history with the Stamps. If it was the Bombers in the Eastern Final & was asked to come back for the playoffs I could see him saying yes.

Thought he just wrote his free press column and did part time work for cjob.

November 19, 201311 yr comment_29587 Maybe he works in sales for OB, I dunno? Anyway he said no. he works in sales for Ourbombers? Talk about a thankless job. Every sales pitch would just get vetoed by Shankman.
