Metcalf bolts to Argos in multi year deal
Terry Metcalf, leaving the St. Louis Cardinals, signs a multi year contract with the Toronto Argonauts reportedly worth 100000 dollars per year plus incentives that could total another 100000. Metcalf, 26, says he is a team man and avoids big egos as Argos face pressure to end Grey Cup drought since 1952 and skepticism from fans about high priced stars. Argos GM Dick Shatto calls Metcalf able and versatile.
