There have been some pretty great quarterbacks to play for the Bombers over the years and for the fans to choose me, well, thats quite an honour. This is very nice.” Voting began Monday and fans were given the choice of five quarterbacks as chosen by the All-Time Blue Bombers Team panel including legendary coach Bud Grant, former player and GM Paul Robson, Hall of Fame football writer Ed Tait, Andrew “Hustler” Paterson from TSN 1290 and myself. Voters chose Ploen as the All-Time Bombers Team quarterback with Dieter Brock finishing second and then Tom Clements, Jack Jacobs and Khari Jones in descending order. “Ill tell you, I had a pretty good gang around me in those years. We had good football teams and won a lot of games,” said Ploen. “That was truly the best accomplishment.

Ploen was an All-American that year and nnamed the Big Ten player of the year.dddddddddddd Grant convinced Ploen to join the Bombers and one of the most successful runs in club history soon began to unfold. In all, Ploen was part of six trips to the Grey Cup for the Bombers claiming victory in the title game four times. Ploens 18-yard dash to the endzone in overtime of the 1961 Grey Cup is considered one of the greatest plays in Blue Bombers history. Ploen was inducted into the Canadian Football Hall of Fame in 1975, the Manitoba Sports Hall of Fame and Museum in 1987, the Rose Bowl Hall of Fame in 1997, and the Iowa Sports Hall of Fame in 2002. When his career ended, Ploen stayed in Winnipeg and raised his family here. “We all worked while we were playing football and I had a pretty good job,” said Ploen. “When my career was over, well, I hadnt been back to the U.S. in such a long time, there was really nothing there for me. But I was able to work in Winnipeg and our family grew up here. Winnipeg is what I call home.” The Free Press print and digital editions as well as www.tsn1290.ca will run stories on Monday outlining the careers of the finalists selected by our panel.
