For all the CFL fans here (all 3 of you) just thought I would let all of you know that Adrian Madise has signed with my hometown Winnipeg Blue Bombers. Talk about a downhill career, poor guy has to come play up here now, oh well, get used to our -25C winters here Adrian.
Sorry to clutter the board with this but with the lack of Bronco news this is the best I could dig up.

I forgot all about that "saviour" of the receiving corps.

I gotta say, you would expect most NFL talent that comes to the CFL to light it up but it's rarely the case. Half of the city wanted to lynch Tee Martin last year. He was hailed as our QB saviour yet he was beat out by our barely 6 foot QB.

Roughly 1800 people in the world play for the NFL in a given a season. Sadly, Madaise isn't good enough to be one of the 1800, but he is good enough to play in the CFL. I wish him the best.

I hope he does well up there. I watched him in camp and he tried as hard as anyone on the field. Was always the first to run to Watson or the vets and ask for how he could do better.

I'm glad Adrian Madise went to Winnipeg,because thats one less ex-NFLer for the Toronto Argonauts to sign.I swear,that team thinks they're in the NFL.Andre Rison?Bravo!!I hope they fall flat on their faces again.Spergon Wynn is cool though-ex B.C. Lion baby!

Spergon never really got a fair shake here in Winnipeg, I was pissed that the team didn't give him much of a shot. He was probably better than Tee Martin.

I too would like to see him do well. If he can make it in another league like Nash is in the AFL, more power too him.

Hmmmm... That reminds me. Apparently the Chiefs have brought some CFL quarterback in that is supposed to be the Michael Vick of the CFL...
Casey something or other...
Should be interesting to see what happens with him...

I never did get all the dirt on what happened. One minute he was a mortal lock to the team and the next poof....up in smoke...literally.

So they brought in a poor passer, a guy that cant learn the O very well and all he really does well is run around. Nice.

Ah yes, the great Casey Printers. The guy was a stud up here but had a poor attitude. I don't blame him, the guy won the MVP award his first year here and was benched in the Grey Cup game in favor of Dave Dickenson. Then he was benched for the entire year last year. The guy had major CFL talent and was screwed around by the team he played for, but I don't see him being anything more than marginal in the NFL.

Peter King wrote this guy up in training camp his rookie year as someone to watch out for. That was the kiss of death right there.

How come he didn't make it here? I thought he was supposed to be doing really well?

He was last on the depth chart and got suspended, by the fifth game , the broncs did not think they had room for him. He was short and not too fast, but he ran with power after the catch - like a RB.
