Matt Dunigan is making the rounds of the talk shows these days, offering up some samples of his latest project a comprehensive look at his days as a CFL quarterback, coach and broadcaster.
The long time CFL pivot and now broadcaster teamed up with Jim Taylor, one of Canada's best sports writers and a long time observer of the Canadian football League to bring his memories to life in print, not an easy task when you've suffered as many concussions as he has over the years.
Their combined effort is called Goin' Deep: The Life and Times of a CFL Quarterback, a timely look at the world of Canadian football and the nature of the game. Dunigan holds nothing back in his remembrances, including details on the one thing that eventually drove him from the game, a number of concussions throughout his career.
Thursday's stop was the Bill Good radio show on CKNW in Vancouver, Dunigan and Taylor sat in with Good and traded quips and quotes about how the project came to be, the process of putting it together and what Dunigan hopes will be the reaction from football fans looking for a bit of inside information about the workings of the CFL and his career in it.
You can check out the interview by going to the CKNW Audio Vault, click on the Thursday, November 15th selection and then select the 11 to 12 noon hour for a refreshing look at some CFL lore.
