January 24, 201510 yr comment_104526 This is win-win. If he makes it in the NFL, good PR for us, if not, and we've treated him well, he will come back and feel more at home. In any case, good on him. Just like two former Bombers making the two biggest plays to get the Seahawks in the Super Bowl was last weekend! Must have had the right sized balls to accomplish those feats. I'm sure that Matthews & Ryan have perfectly sized balls.

January 28, 201510 yr comment_105050 Continuing the trend then, next season Ian Wild cranks into Tom Brady at full speed in overtime, causing a fumble, which he recovers and returns for 80 yards to win Superbowl 50 for the Vikings. Tom stands in the middle of the field with Bill Belichick crying, hands around their deflated balls. I could live with that.

January 29, 201510 yr comment_105221 gary lawless former #bombers LB Ian Wild's contract with @steelers has fallen apart. Wild is still looking for work in NFL but could return to Winnipeg
January 29, 201510 yr comment_105223 gary lawless former #bombers LB Ian Wild's contract with @steelers has fallen apart. Wild is still looking for work in NFL but could return to Winnipeg Wouldnt that be nice.
January 29, 201510 yr comment_105224 that's a damn shame for Ian, and I certainly take no joy from his unfortunate situation......that said......would sure love to see the guy back in Blue and Gold this summer, after all...
January 29, 201510 yr comment_105225 What exactly does" contract fallen apart " mean? You have a contract and have already been released? You sort of had a contract but didn't really have one? Strange wording
January 29, 201510 yr comment_105227 What exactly does" contract fallen apart " mean? You have a contract and have already been released? You sort of had a contract but didn't really have one? Strange wording Not really strange, but really up for open interpretation. -Contract offered but a tidbit in there that wasn't discussed prior that one party didn't like. -a possible date that the contract was to be sent, passed etc..
January 29, 201510 yr comment_105230 Could be that Wild hadn't signed it yet and the Steelers changed their mind.
January 29, 201510 yr comment_105233 Could be they just opted to go in another direction after a change of heart. Either way, super unfortunate to hear about Ian. But if this means he ends up back in the CFL, I sure hope he wants to be back here!
January 29, 201510 yr comment_105234 Could be that Wild hadn't signed it yet and the Steelers changed their mind. Almost certainly is that simple - the Steelers changed their mind. I hope he gets another tryout with another team. He earned it.
January 29, 201510 yr comment_105238 Maybe **** LeBeau liked Ian Wild and he's not there anymore so the team is looking for different players. Who knows.
January 29, 201510 yr comment_105241 Well it appears pretty obvious that the Steelers didn't see big upside in him. Hopefully he catches on somewhere else, if not he would look great at WIL for us.
January 29, 201510 yr comment_105249 Certainly Bomber fans wished Ian all the best but a certain part of them wanted him to remain here. I was one of those.Not a great day for Wild as far as the nfl goes BUT if nothing else shakes out down there...welcome back Ian...
January 29, 201510 yr comment_105251 Imagine if he signs with the Riders ! They'll be lucky to sign their own fas at present.
January 29, 201510 yr comment_105252 Having Wild back would be huge for us. Throw in Heenan, Bryant and Dressler and I'll be one happy camper. I'm obviously not picky at all and have completely reasonable and realistic expectations .
January 29, 201510 yr comment_105255 Wild Heenan and Dressler don't seem that far fetched lol. Not serious about Dressler but wouldn't surprise me one bit
January 29, 201510 yr comment_105266 Kyle Walters just said on 1290 it now looks after all that the Steelers will sign Ian Wild after pulling the offer off the table. That being said he also acknowledged the team will try to get him back should it turn out things do definitely fall through.
January 29, 201510 yr comment_105269 Wild Heenan and Dressler don't seem that far fetched lol. Not serious about Dressler but wouldn't surprise me one bit Wild will be back in Bombers uniform once he gave up on NFL. With a considerable cap space its hard to believe that Walters will not throw a big $$$ to get Heenan Dressler will be a nice addition but I rather have a big physical receiver added since we lost the physicality of Watson. E.Jackson can fill that physicality and much more.
January 29, 201510 yr comment_105270 Everyone seems forgetting Chris Williams. I believe he will be a FA also comes Feb 10. Can someone confirm. Thanks.
