Football Betting Lines
02/17/2012 - Regina, SK (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Saskatchewan Roughriders announced Friday that veteran offensive lineman Gene Makowsky has retired.
The 38-year-old finished his 17-year career as the franchise's all-time leader in games played.
"It's never an easy decision to make and it was extremely difficult for me," stated Makowsky. "However I felt that this is the best decision to make for my family, my career and my team."
A Saskatchewan native, Makowsky participated 284 regular-season games, passing Roger Aldag early last year for the record, and also toiled in 16 playoff games and four Grey Cups, earning a championship ring in 2007.
The former second-round pick in 1995 accumulated multiple honors over the course of his career: CFL offensive lineman of the year in both 2004-05, a five-time league All-Star selection and a West Division All-Star team for seven consecutive years.
"Geno will go down as one of the greatest players in CFL history," said Riders assistant general manager Jeremy O'Day. "His toughness, work ethic, dedication and character were unmatched. It was an honor to have played with Geno and he made me a better player, a better person and I will be forever grateful for the time we spent as teammates."
