Excerpt: *2001 All-Canadian team Burke Dales (born February 16, 1977, in Collingwood, Ontario) is a professional Canadian football punter for the Calgary Stampeders of the Canadian Football League. He was signed by the Pittsburgh Steelers as an undrafted free agent in 2002. He played CIS Football with the Concordia Stingers. Dales has also been a member of the Montreal Alouettes. After playing at Concordia University, Dales attended the Pittsburgh Steelers 2002 training camp. He also tried to make the team as a kick-off specialist. When he placekicks, he uses the straight-on style which had not been seen in the NFL since the 1980s. Dales attended Montreal Alouettes's 2003 training camp and sat out the remainder of the 2003 and 2004 seasons before signing with Calgary in 2005. Dales was signed as a free agent on March 8, 2005, by the Calgary Stampeders. Prior to the Stampeders' 96th Grey Cup victory in 2008, Dales was offered a new contract to re-sign with Calgary for the 2009 CFL season but withheld signing until seeing if he could get interest from a National Football League team. Dales re-signed with the Stampeders on March 24, 2009, after failing to gain interest from NFL teams and a reportedly higher offer from the Winnipeg Blue Bombers would have meant losing his off-season employment. His sister, Stacey Dales, is a former Women's National Basketball Association player. His cousin Jason Arnott plays for the Nashville Predators of the National Hockey League. ...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=21305575 ... Read more
