The Esks were loaded with talent and I'm sure that helped. But in the end, we'll never know how good Parker could've been if he had played elsewhere. It's like asking how many rings Gretzky would have today if he hadn't played for the Oilers or if Jordan didn't have Pippen or if Pele didn't play on stacked Brazilian teams - we'll just never know. All we can do is just enjoy them for what they did.
Nice thread, by the way !!
