CFL RESUMé: Signed with Saskatchewan on June 8, 2001… Traded to Toronto, then Winnipeg on the same day in 2004… Assumed starting QB job after Khari Jones was traded to Calgary in ’04… East Division all-star QB in 2007, led Bombers to Grey Cup berth, but suffered a broken arm in division final… Released by Winnipeg on March 9, 2009; signed with Hamilton 11 days later… Ranks third on Bombers’ all-time passing yardage list behind Dieter Brock and Khari Jones… Assumed starter’s role in Hamilton from Quinton Porter midway through 2009.
STATUS: Married to Asha Day. One son — Caleb, one year old.
FAVOURITE TV SHOW: CSI.
MOST-LISTENED ON MY IPOD: I’m a mixed tape guy… a little bit of everything.
OK, THEN… YOU’RE STRANDED ON A DESERTED ISLAND AND CAN HAVE ONE CD: Michael Jackson’s Off The Wall
CURRENT VEHICLE: Hummer. I had a Charger in Winnipeg, but then had a Range Rover when I came here. Now it’s an H3.
FAVOURITE MOVIES: Boomerang with Eddie Murphy and Martin Lawrence; 40-Year-Old Virgin; Super Bad; Casino. I’m a real movie guy.
WHAT ARE YOU READING RIGHT NOW: Nothing, really, other than the playbook. Like I said, I’m more visual… love movies.

ROUND OUT YOUR DREAM GOLF FOURSOME WITH: Barack Obama, my grandfather — my father’s father — and my mother’s mother because they passed away before I was born.

FAVOURITE TEAMS GROWING UP: Chicago Bulls and Detroit Tigers.
FAVOURITE ATHLETE AS A KID: Michael Jordan and Lou Whitaker.
