sweep the leg

Agreed. Seems to me he defended some guy accused of being a racist, and in turn was called a racist himself...? It's a riveting tale filled with many twists and turns. That and he doesn't control what other people say to him. That sounds like a pretty standard twitter exchange.

Have to admit I did. I just really didn't see a role with the team next year where his paycheque would be warranted. I did too. He's been surpassed by younger guys (Moore & Denmark). Great guy, great player, & he represented the Bombers well throughout his career with us.

It doesn't seem to be in the online version of the Free Press, but Wiecek had a beauty this morning. Of course the Bombers were losers in FA, but his best comment was saved for the Ticats...slightly paraphrased as I'm going from memory, "we haven't seen that many FAs signed by one team since 2013 when the Riders did it."

Plemons & Creehan have gone to TO with Burke.

That was six minutes of him destroying people.

Then you obviously didn't read through the Arland Bruce thread...

Penton said we offered Butler the most money, he just didn't want to come here. As for Bell, I really don't see the need after getting Banks & Randle. I gave a C+ as well, but Laurent & Matthews would turn that into an A+. Unfortunately, I don't see us getting Laurent.

What an odd start to that franchises history. First they insist on being called the REDBLACKS. Then they hire a knob for a GM and screw over the best QB in Ottawa since Damon Allen to spend half a million on a worse 39 year old QB. Now they start their first season with a bye week. I have to think that's to buy (no pun intended) more time to get the stadium ready.

If we manage to make the playoffs, that bye at the end of the season might work out well.

There seems to be universal agreement around the league that we paid too much for Moore. I read in the Vancouver Province this morning that he's getting $185k/yr plus the use of a car.

I like this idea. What we need to do is put him exclusively at that spot so he can really concentrate on it. That should help his snaps, b/c they were brutal each of the last two TCs when they tried him there. IMO if we could turn Sorensen into a centre we can do it with Morley.

Agreed. Nick Moore was a big name & will help our team, but import receiver may not have been our most pressing need. I am happy to have him though. Same with Randle.

After reading through this thread, all signs point to that comment being comically uninformed rather than an attempt to ruffle feathers.

I'll be pretty disappointed if we keep Edwards over Denmark. I'm not sure that we keep both.

I touched another man's junk once. He was peeing on me in the shower so I flicked the end of his knob to make him stop. I miss junior hockey...

Glenn's going nuclear on twitter right now. It's awesome...

This guy is kind of a joke. Guaranteed he took that straight from Wiecek's tweet and passed it along like he had something insider on it.

Apparently Bryant Turner is also in some trouble over tweets he made on the same subject. Tweets have since been deleted. I wonder what he said?

We'll see. Right now the only thing they're going on is that the Bombers wouldn't confirm it.

Special teamer? He'll be competing for the starting safety job IMO. Lots of talk on the Rider forum about him ready to start. I wish his parents had spelled his name correctly...

Bombers sign Graig Newman from the Riders.

Anybody here follow @CFmagazine on twitter? He looks like the CFL version of @hockeyinsiderrr. His "insider" tweets come out about 30 seconds after I've read it from somebody else. He never sources his info, just says "I've heard".

Lalji says the Als will be releasing him. He's just not good enough any more to put up with his crap.

He blocked me & I don't even know what I did. I went through my tweets and the last one I could find to him I said something about how funny it would be if Pierce lit us up in his return to Winnipeg. Last week I noticed one of his tweets, but it only came through as a RT from someone else. I went to his profile and found out I was blocked. Weird...
