Like another...I'd take McCallum in a heartbeat. Like another great former Lion (Lui Passaglia) he's from the Methuselah gene pool of kickers. Maligned for his big playoff miss in Saskabush, he's put up a FG percentage no worse than 81.4 during his 5 years in BC, and better than 88% the past two seasons.<br /><br />Might be a better guy to have around for a year or two than Sandro De-Angled-it until a younger leg can move into the role. This is provided that the Cats don't get Wilbur to bone up on placekicking during the off-season, or draft a promising kid out of school (letting Palardy go may have been a big mistake - perhaps he should have "tweaked a hammy" instead of being released on the promise he could come back and try again)<br /><br />Jackson will end up somewhere. He'll be turning 31 next summer. The Cats probably won't be interested, but maybe that depends on what happens with Bauman.<br /><br />Little known fact, at least it was to me: the Cats had actually signed McCallum in early 1993 but he didn't last long before moving to BC and then Ottawa for a few games, then BC again, and ending up with the west Riders for many years.ty_pexnoreply@blogger.com
