  1. Willie writes... These last few days have been incredible for me and my family. But being back here in Winnipeg now, it just feels right.The relationships I’ve built with the guys who have been here for a while really do matter to me. Guys like Andrew Harris, Nik Demski, Paddy Neufeld, Stan (Bryant), Yosh (Jermarcus Hardrick), Darvin (Adams), Jackson (Jeffcoat), Thomas Miles, Bigs (Adam Bighill), Meddy (Justin Medlock), Remp (Chad Rempel)… those guys played a key role in my coming back because they made me feel comfortable here from Day 1.Coach O’Shea made me feel very comfortable when I first got here last year, too. He told me he wasn’t trying to change who I am or put me in a box and ask me to be a robot. Coach Richie (Hall) was the same. He wanted me to learn the system, but be the player I am and be the baller I am. I felt like I did that, especially having Bigs and Jackson behind me. I wanted to be a vocal leader for the team and try to help make my teammates better.In the end, it just felt wrong to leave that.This is what I’m out here for: I’m here to win games, be a part of the community, help my organization and help players grow as men and athletes. I’m an open book to my teammates. They can come talk to me whenever about anything. I’ve been through a lot of things. I’ve grown as a man, as a husband, as a father, as a mentor and as a coach.We’ve built something here in Winnipeg. I’m building something here in Winnipeg.Again, why would I want to leave that and start over?This is where I want to be.https://www.bluebombers.com/2020/02/13/words-willie-jefferson/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter - Willie Jefferson

  2. He’s lined up at DE, SAM, WIL and corner. He’s versatile as hell, which I think Hall will love. Not an every down guy but a nice piece to compete for a DI spot. Besides ... iF hE sUcKs WeLl JuSt CuT hIm WiN wIn

  5. Darvin could drop every single pass thrown his way next year and I will still forever respect him for the way he played and carried himself in a year where we won the Grey Cup.

    But the real question regarding Limbaugh is now that his lungs are black and don't work, do you think he hates them?

    You don't seriously expect this to happen do you? the goof thinks he's "winning" these discussions. I lost interest in this character, except for comic relief the day I saw him using the words "pinko rag".

    oh yeah, one more thing about jury bias -- dude was convicted by unanimous vote of all the jurors, as the English common law demands. Which tells me that the jury was entirely composed of: a) Soros clones grown in a secret Venezuelan lab b) robolesbian deep state gun confiscators c) members of the UN Permanent Committee On Baby Tissue Resale d) those Portland pastors who provided sanctuary to Mexican Gender-Quaida e) refugee lizards from Alpha Centauri f) Socks Clinton

  20. I’d have to imagine the Bombers feel really good about McGuire being the back seeing as we haven’t signed a guy like Franklin or Pipkin to battle it out for that back up spot.

    Obama appointees maxed out every charge with zero nuance. To say a 67 year old gay man presented a clear pnysical threat to anyone is ridiculous. A transparent political stunt not just to get at Stone but Barr.

    You could see it in the 3rd quarter...they knew they were beat...Bombers were just playing at a faster speed, and more heart...even after a lot of plays..there would be Cats on the field..taking time getting up..laying there for a bit, and the Bombers were sprinting back to the huddle...Look at the scene of the Cat's locke room at halftime...was like a morgue and you could see they were defeated

  25. I have a really good relationship with Coach (Glen) Young, but he wasn’t in the city at the time. Also, I have a really good relationship with Mike Davis, their D-line coach. He had just left the city when we were flying in. I guess it was a good thing I didn’t see the people who I have those relationships with that might have made the decision even harder for me. ROFL - cmon guys... you are rolling out the red carpet for the guy, at least make sure you've got the D coaches you know he's worked with in the past there to boost your chances.

    one of the thinking errors you see nowadays is the idea that if you're criticizing Trump and the GOP then of course you must be a rabidly pro-democrat stooge, because those are the two teams and you have to be a fan of one, right? And it's the way that stupid people argue. "You hate Trump so naturally you must be down with all the sex crime and shitty legislation that Bill Clinton did, right?" Just for the record: "Bill Clinton should go to jail if he raped children on the Air Pedo" and "Trump is a criminal who is a danger to the USA and indeed the world and he needs to not be President ASAP" are not contradictory viewpoints. One can hold them both at once.

    He has been investigated there is a mountain of evidence against him... AND he self incriminated himself constantly admitting to his illegal and inappropriate actions... Yet because the DoJ and Republican Senate protect him and ig ore the wrong doing you equate that with no evidence of wrong doing? Stand up and pull your head out of your ass. History will not look kindly on this president's reign or the people who blindly supported him.

  31. Yup although not an official stat...yet still tracked...leading league in pressures doesn't matter...and yeah a pass knockdown...16 times which is uncanny is as good as a tackle after a first down is gained...yeah ok.....6 force fumbles during season which led league is meaningless too...it's the same as an incomplete pass...didn't you know that?? They like to chirp about Hughes having more tackles, yet lack the insight or the ability to think that maybe teams ran at Hughes more than they did at Willie, and a lot of those tackles were in chase after the ball carrier had gained yards...sour grapes is all it is..he spurnned them...then burned them...then signed back here despite all their theories and assumptions about the guy. Sad thing is if he had decided to return there, and it would have been for his asking price (like we gave him) it would have been well worth the money...a major coup for them and they fleeced us cause Sask is the better place to be, and you would be seeing "welcome home Willie"..."yes!!!"..."we missed you"..."we got the 3 best DE's in league now!!"...and on and on and an...as thats how that folly fanbase works...and it's entertaining as hell reading their drivel

  32. Nope...according to Rider fans latest that's all he's worth. Some truly startlingly dumb comments are that pass knockdowns are the equivalent of a tackle and therefore don't really matter, and that AC Leonard.....AC FREAKING LEONARD is just as good as Willie. Never change Riderfans….just truly, and epically stupid.

    We do. Trouble for you and your ilk is that no democrats act the way republicans do so you are left grasping at false equivalencies because you picked a team and have to cheer for then even in the face of blatant criminality and corruption... and that's the least of their transgressions.

    Have followed US Politics since the Watergate. Seen many Presidents and administrations, including Clinton who didn't care a whit about foreign policy, and the bungling efforts of Carter. But the real outstanding corruption instances are stuff like Nixon, Iran gate (Reagan) Gulf wars (Bush's) and the completely mendacious and corrupt Trump administration. Even yesterday, this Stone business is pretty well the most naked. overt and obvious case of political interference. I have seen - with his personal stooge as Attorney General (Barr) and totally compliant lapdog Republican legislators in both House and Senate - they no longer make the slightest attempt to hide it. As far as Lindbaugh......using the word sincere about him is a complete waste of time. The medal from Trump, is an insult and a total sham. btw.....you calling my observations "partisan and biased claptrap".....and musing about "work to do".......shows me that you are working far too hard to provide a nakedly immoral Trump with some form of fig leaves. In future you can simply refer to me, as "Ground Control"
