No kidding lol can you believe some of these rwords actually want Osh fired lmfao

All-Star Damon Webb to CGY

Young OL Cyrille Hogan-Saindon goes home to Quebec after 6th OL duties and a handful of starts in OTT, was a 2nd rounder

Was Buck ever made available to the press in the weeks following the GC? I don't ever recall hearing a peep from him until the HC discussions started up

You know what's crazy to me? Jake Thomas needs only 1 sack and 16 games played to exceed Stan Mikawos (Bomber HoFer) in each category. Crazier still if COVID didn't cancel 2020 he might have already pulled it off. Is Jake Thomas actually a future Bomber HoFer?

Refs already ******* this up.

Are you referring to his post-GC remarks about having earned the right to know why he didn't touch the ball more? He wasn't the only one wondering what happened. Stanley Bryant: “Very disappointing,” veteran O-lineman Stanley Bryant said. “Surprised. Because, I mean, you’ve got the MOP, MOC. That’s what you respect. But I’m not an OC.” 11 touches, I think 0 of them came when Wilson was in at QB, none when Zach came in with 91/2 fingers. We all wanted to ask Buck what the heck happened there. I read it as he wanted to do more for his team but wasn't able to, it was out of his hands.

Now that would be surprising, but I'd call it welcome news. He's won games in the CFL, it can be argued teams 'figured him out' as time went on but he was young and thrust into action early and had some decent success with a good supporting cast. He'll have that here, too. 26 when camp opens, decent wheels and clearly not afraid to throw the ball for better or worse. Competition breeds success.

From 3DN article , made me laugh The 30-year-old was especially effective during the team’s Grey Cup run in his second season with the club, rushing for 82 yards and a touchdown in the West Semi-Final against Calgary and throwing a touchdown pass in the championship game over Hamilton. During the ensuing celebration, he gained cult hero status in Winnipeg as he sported a fur coat and cowboy hat while consuming an inordinate amount of beer.

Either we get him back with money we didn't have a week ago, or drive his price tag up even further forcing someone else to spend even more of their found money. Win win win

...and yet, the Seal was exclusively an Oshea thing, it can't go both ways

Considering he made the phone call to release Woli, I'd call it taking ownership of the decision regardless

Bighill on Winnipeg and the Bombers: The fans are great, the community is great. It supports you here. Great locker-room and great support – a lot of great stuff. It’s a good team, a good organization in a lot of ways. Something like that you don’t want to leave unless you have to. Woli on Oshea Lastly, Osh. You pushed me to be a better leader and a better man. You taught me to have respect whilst demanding the most from myself and others. I will never forget you or the lessons I’ve learned from you. It’s been a honour playing under you. Lawler on Oshea To Coach O’Shea, you have been the most influential coach in my life! You helped me understand how we play the game and who we play it for! I play the game for my brothers I go to war with and the toughest man on the field doesn’t have to be the loudest. Once I figured that out, success followed! Thank you Osh! Oshea has his faults, but his strengths shine through whenever his name is brought up. It would be easy for Lawler to praise his former coach as he leaves to collect another big payday, after all words are cheap, it's money that really talks. But for Woli to sing his praises even after everything? If it weren't the honest truth he could just stay quiet and say nothing at all, instead he writes an entire article about how great our team, city, and coaches have been. It just reinforces the commonly held belief that guys really do want to play here, if only there was money for everyone.

I'm curious where he lands. Surely he gets picked up by another team, he's only 29 and no slouch

At receiver? Probably Woli. Jake is a little slow and I'm not sure what his hands are like, but he is at least a BIG target Clercius brings a lot to the table in Wolis place. Question is does Clercius stay with the B&G if he proves himself better, and who is backing him up? FA and draft will be especially interesting this year

I want to know... if Clercius can play guitar... Happy Trails Woogie

Someone on Reddit claiming Woli has been released by the Bombers, nothing on transactions page Google Twitter so on, but supposedly he talked about it in his Insta... I don't insta... anyone verify this or squash this please? He extended thru 2025 last off-season but spent a lot of time tubbing it

But feelings don’t negotiate contracts. “Oshe tends to stay out of contract negotiations,” is how Bighill put it. “He lets the front office do their part. So it doesn’t really matter what he thinks or feels, to some degree, I would say. The roles and responsibilities are different.” I thought I heard somewhere O'Shea was overly influential in who gets offers and who doesn't. This direct quote appears to be on the contrary. That, or he is demonstrating that his loyalty has it's limits. Either way even Biggie can agree it's time to move forward.

Indeed Stanley Bryant immediately leaped to mind. Muamba was paid quite a bit to play for non-contenders. Lawler wasn't missing his playoff cheque when EDM went 4-14, he got paid real well to be on that loser squad.

What if an also-ran offered more than a contender even after playoff bonuses? Like I say, money talks, if he can make more $ losing I bet he would/will time will tell and soon

I imagine McManus goes to whomever makes him the biggest guaranteed offer regardless of their playoff chances, money talks

Goth Underbirds, cool

Gets to serve his sentence intermittently, too. Like what... weekends? Soft and cushy, unreal

Kaughlin

Haha maybe but even if they are... not sure how that matters? He asked for something, they got it for him and then some is the point.
