Dirty30 Posted September 16, 2015 Report Share Posted September 16, 2015 Anyone of us in his shoes would be doing the same thing...NFL and their big $$ first and then consider the highest bidder in the CFL if no other options down south. I say do what you need to do Henoc because football can be a real short career. Quite frankly Henoc and all professional athletes have every right to be choosey. They're the ones that made the sacrifices and made the most of opportunities presented to them. I hope he signs here, but if not I wish him all the best except when playing the Blue and Gold. Fans shouldn't take it personally. A guys got to do what a guys got to do. Good on him to be getting all this attention and being chaperoned, wined and dined all across Canada.

M.O.A.B. Posted September 16, 2015 Report Share Posted September 16, 2015 Dave Campbell @Dave_CHED 1h1 hour ago Henoc Muamba says he hasn't signed with a #CFL team yet. Visit with the #Eskimos is "part of the process." Off to Montreal next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnzo Posted September 16, 2015 Report Share Posted September 16, 2015 Geez, you guys. If I were essentially disposable and my career could end on a single play, I'd do whatever it took to maximize my value too.

Jacquie Posted September 16, 2015 Report Share Posted September 16, 2015 Why? He is going to want to try the NFL again. Going on a grand tour and taking 2 weeks to decide where to play for 2-1/2 to 3 months is excessive to say the least. If he wants to try the NFL next season then sign a 1 year contract right away and save the grand tour for the off-season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jpan85 Posted September 16, 2015 Report Share Posted September 16, 2015 He seems like a guy where he picks to play will be the place he plays for the majority of his career. He is going to have to play there so there is no reason not to check out everything before and make a informed decision. I pretty sure anyone who would be looking for work in a new city or organization would want to check it out before making a decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iso_55 Posted September 16, 2015 Report Share Posted September 16, 2015 This whole Henoc Muamba 'I'm Back" CFL tour is just getting old. I've never known a player to do this. You're right, this is extremely uncommon in the CFL... but obviously a common practice in the other major leagues that are dealing with real big money... Good thing it's not the NFL with 32 teams...

iso_55 Posted September 16, 2015 Report Share Posted September 16, 2015 why do u think he has not signed any where, he still wants to play in the nfl this year, waiting for more injuries down south, Then sit at home & wait for the call that may never come from the NFL & stop wasting everyone's time. Doesn't seem like he's in any hurry to get onto a CFL field anytime soon. If Muamba wants to play down there more power to him but this tour is tiresome. If His Royal Highness picks us & grants the Bombers his presence, then like someone said, it better be a multi year deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
