Doesn't look like he's ready to stop playing.

Geebrr beat me to it.

Yep, they've managed the money so well they can no longer afford players they just re-signed a month ago. 🙄

What a way to handcuff your GM. Good luck with free agency Maciocia!

Outside of a press release, that's as official as you can get from the team

What's the criteria for being a Winnipegger? Fox was born here but spent most of his life elsewhere while people like Neil Young were not born here but still have a significant connection to the city. If we're including anyone with ties to Winnipeg, I'd add Tommy Douglas & Tommy Prince to the list.

https://www.cfl.ca/2023/02/10/report-kwaku-boateng-ticats-have-deal-in-place/ Curious to see what his contract looks like, coming off an Achilles injury.

If any GM, other than KW, tries to draft him, they're going to be made an offer they can't refuse...

Not sure if I'd consider this massive news... pretty much the only landing spot left for him.

He had a pretty good playoff game against the Bisons (3 picks) but I haven't seen a lot of draft talk about him. JC Abbott from 3DN had him in the honorable mentions section of of an early top 25 article he did but haven't seen much else yet. He's supposed to be participating in the combine in a few weeks so I would expect to hear more after that. https://3downnation.com/2022/08/01/3downnations-way-too-early-top-25-2023-cfl-draft-prospects/

Not saying he won't pan out eventually but he's now on his 5th team (OTT, BC, EDM, WPG, SSK) and hasn't been able to stick.

If the reports about the aborted trade with Edmonton from last season are correct, we had a deal in place with him for an extension so I'd have to think they can't be too far off in numbers unless Lawler is using FA to drive up his asking price.

You're assuming he reached out to the team. The team could have just as easily called him to see what his plans are.

He signed a 2 year deal with BC, per 3DN. https://3downnation.com/2022/04/20/b-c-lions-dl-steven-richardson-suffers-significant-injury-during-workout-session/

Which is ironic because earlier in their careers (pre-WWF), it was the reverse. Lanny was pushed as the star while Randy was more of an enforcer-type guy. Vince did Lanny no favors by sticking him with the "Leaping Lanny" gimmick. The Genius was an upgrade of that character and Lanny played it well, but it was never going to be anything more than a lower/mid-card role.

You sure about that? 😂

Yep, I have to think it pretty much ends any speculation Demski follows Harris to the Argos. Can't see them paying both guys at #1 National receiver rate.

Or the over the shoulder catches. Even Collaros is amazed by Demski's ability for this. Zach said he started calling him Willie Mays but Nic didn't know who that was. 😂

I wouldn't pencil in Lawler as a lock to return just yet. They've been saying the same thing for a few weeks now and he's no closer to signing a new deal so it looks like he wants to see what other offers are out there.

For those old enough to remember the AWA days:

The fact that every state turned them down too is just the cherry on top.

His trip to the bathroom lasted longer than his free agency.
