The Twitterverse is abuzz with video of former Winnipeg Blue Bombers offensive line coach Bob Wylie, currently starring on the HBO behind-the-scenes show “Hard Knocks” as a member of the Cleveland Browns coaching staff.
Wylie spent six seasons in the CFL, separated into two separate stints — 2007-08 and 2014-16 — with Winnipeg and a single season (2009) with Saskatchewan.
He is a self-taught magician, abhors stretching and drives a Maserati.
Yep. That’s a thing.

In case you haven’t already figured it out: Bob Wylie is a legend.
f
He’s flown a fighter jet. He plays the heck out of the drums.
And he’s a CFL alum.
Glorious.
