Thread: Bombers sign RB Onterrio Smith

I sure hope Ontario can grow up some, and re-dedicate himself. If he wants to smoke weed just wait till yer done playing. Running back careers are relatively short and if he gets it together he could be a NFL starter as early as the second half of the upcoming season he could help a team.

CFL | Smith’s foot injury keeping him sidelined
Sun, 28 May 2006 09:11:47 -0700

Ed Tait, of the Winnipeg Free Press, reports Winnipeg Blue Bombers RB Onterrio Smith (foot) remains sidelined with a foot injury. Smith said Saturday, May 27, his foot is about 75 per cent, but it now appears unlikely he'll suit up for Friday's first pre-season game, June 2, against the Montreal Alouettes. Asked yesterday if Smith's juicy credentials buy him extra time as he recovers from a foot injury that has kept him on the sidelines for seven days, Blue Bombers head coach Doug Berry was his usual up-front self: "I can't put him on the team if I haven't seen him perform," he said. "I mean, we're going to have to see him do it because we've got other guys that I have seen do it that are doing very well. I just can't see cutting them and running the risk of, it's not that Onterrio Smith can't do it, he probably can. But I haven't seen it, nobody's seen it here. We've heard about it, but we haven't seen it."

Sounds like he has to prove himself even if he didn't have sore wheel.

He failed three chances at staying clean in the NFL, but he'll probably get just one to crack the lineup of the Blue Bombers....
