Then why did the coach tell the media Westerman was fine and an hour later Tait releases this article with quotes from the player (that the media was told they couldn't talk to )?

They had availability the next day.  Wiecek is basically saying "wah wah I can't do my job" admitting he has no sources.  Somehow Lawless didn't have this trouble with the Jets or Bombers/CFL who have had their own in house media for nearly a decade.  Wiecek needs to do his job better.

Lazy.

on a different note, isn't it a good thing that Management didn't dump Opo for whatever.....when many here figured that would be a smart move?

This might hold some water if it were true. But there are plenty of 3rd party Journalists who break stories before the "team guy" does. Weicek is afraid of change and seemingly unwilling to adapt in the ever changing landscape that is journalism. He's just another old timer who, if he doesn't change will be out of a job likely sooner than later.

come on sooner!

The free press should just fire Wiecek and put him out of his quite obvious misery already. 

Too high up in the union.

Anybody else feel like this is Wiecek

I figured it was either that or he had surreptitiously recorded the last FP staff junket to Tijuana on his I-Phone.

Well he still hasn't done anything that makes me believe he is even a better option that Shayon Green.

Prove me wrong, Opo, prove me wrong!

yeah hasn't been amazing...but is an experienced vet who isn't gonna hurt you

Letting him slowly fade away into obscurity would be a more deserved fate...

Wiecek is just grousing because he doesn't get to sit in the back of the media scrum munching on free donut's and Timmies coffee, while the team spoon feeds him his 500 words, that he will then twist and distort completely. Now he has to actually ask questions and stuff and formulate his anti-Bomber rant based on his own though processes. This scares him....and so it should.

"Shock" journalists hate it when the truth comes out prior to deadline.

Oh god enough with the cloak and dagger, it's a triceps injury.  I don't know why they're being so secretive.

Do you have a source for that info?

Of course I do but you'll just have to take my word for it.  I actually got some clarification that it's more of an elbow issue than triceps.

I have a preview from the future of MOS addressing the media on Westerman.

I still think its erectile dysfunction. Or urinary incontinence.

I wonder if Jamaal Westerman will end up being a coach for the Bombers? MOS indicated today that once #55 returns from the USA in a few days, Bombers will have more to say about his situation.

Good news and then some bad news.
