August 31, 20168 yr comment_219598 Local media scooped by local blogger who writes almost exclusively poor quality articles and was seen as a running joke ... Until he broke this story. (That's who Fox Sports quoted)
August 31, 20168 yr comment_219600 Gotta think it's Wheeler with all the suddenly news stories. Oh and it's his birthday. Feel good story
August 31, 20168 yr comment_219606 I had never heard of JetsWhiteout.com before yesterday. I'll have to start following it.
August 31, 20168 yr comment_219612 Do they generally want a D with an A or does it not matter? I'd say Wheeler, Scheif and little or Myers. But if the decision comes down to management and players deciding all bets are off.
August 31, 20168 yr comment_219668 Yeah weird that FOX/jetswhiteout got scoop over 1290. Someone squealed. Also Byfuglien not considered? Edited August 31, 20168 yr by FrostyWinnipeg
August 31, 20168 yr comment_219669 Buff doesn't want to deal with the media part of the job. Still a huge leader in the room.
August 31, 20168 yr comment_219678 Cool video Jets released for the announcing showing previous captains.
August 31, 20168 yr comment_219687 Not to read to much in to this but Stripping Stuart of the A might signify an interesting change. Perhaps he is a pressbox option now. All great choices for sure. Wheeler, like Maurice said, EARNED IT. Buff and Scheif are great choices also as they are 2 guys who committed to winnipeg long term very recently.
August 31, 20168 yr comment_219724 Classy move to announce it on Wheeelers birthday. Small things like this is what makes the Jets organization top notch.

Leadership group is in good hands with these guys maybe Wheeler wants to be here long term, as for Stuart by taking the A away from him it probably signals less playing time, especially if Morrissey is ready to make the jump.
August 31, 20168 yr comment_219743 Yeah no reason Wheeler can't re-up again and be here another 6+ years as an aging veteran. Always thought Ladd would retire here. But hopefully Wheeler does.
August 31, 20168 yr comment_219745 Ladd showing tremendous class and respect to wheeler and the jets on twitter

Yeah feel bad for Stu but the A's are pretty useless anyway
