Next week, he‘ll be in Calgary for four days helping in the CFL Players Association allâ€"star celebraâ€" tion. Ferrone is CFLPA viceâ€"presiâ€" dent. Then there‘s the truckload o1 community projects Ferrone immerses himself in. "I‘ve been so busy with things. which leads me to believe I‘m ready 3nd nrenared if fanthall anda " Life after football? A piece of cake. He‘s already done an audition to be a color commentator for CBC football telecasts. He‘s also involved in a printing and marketing business. Ferrone has been approached by a couple other CFL clubs but isn‘t giving them serious thoughts at the moment. He says he would like tc remain in Toronto. "They‘re making it an issue of me wanting to come back," Ferrone said, "...I‘m disappointed in the way they did things." "He can call me if he wants to come back," McCarthy said. Ferrone thinks McCarthy is playâ€" ing hardball but he isn‘t biting. What bothers him the most is how the sitâ€" uation has affected people around him. Paycuts have become a leagueâ€" wide phenomenon with the CFL‘s perâ€" team salary cap being lowered this year to $2.5 million from last year‘s $3 million. Argos star Mike (Pinball) Clemons is among several players to accept a decrease. Ferrone and McCarthy met two weeks ago and while the club came up a bit from the previous offer, it‘s still not good enough, Ferrone said. given Dan an offer â€" we want him back," McCarthy said Friday. "We haven‘t heard from him. There is an offer but‘I can‘t discuss details...His pay cut is based on the same percentage as other players." The Argos have officially deleted Ferrone from their negotiations list. which means he‘s free to latch on with another club. But Argos generâ€" al manager Mike McCarthy insists the team is still interested in getting the Blakelock High School graduate inked for the 1993 season. "I plan on doing something soon," Ferrone said. "...Right now I‘m leaning towards not playing acain." The 12â€"year fixture at offensive guard figures he doesn‘t need to play a 13th season bad enough to accept a pay cut in the oneâ€"year offer the club has on the table. And with a number of postâ€"career irons already in the fire, Ferrone says the decision on whether or not to retire is becoming that much Toronto Argos may have taken a hardâ€"line stance on contract talksâ€" but Oakville‘s Dan Ferrone isn‘t exactly sweating bullets about his future.
