  • I liked the part where @SpeedFlex27 quoted himself so he could regale us with his illustrious curling memoir.

  • Whether he comes back to Winnipeg or not, Strev will be a Bombers legend for life, after that playoff run (and all he did within it) and the post championship celebration... Afaic, he is a Bomber for

Screw Mo Leggett. Hope he's happy playing arena football for Mickey D coupons. Classless jerk.

Tf are you talking about

Leggett was angry when he left the Bombers, went on Rod Pedersen's stupid podcast and bad-mouthed the Bombers... Said something about how the locker room was bad... It was all sour grapes. This woulda been 2019 I think... 

Yeah - definitely tarnished his legacy

He went on the Pederson show a few years ago and absolutely trashed our teams management and some of our players as well. It was gross and I lost all respect for him...so I will say again..screw Mo Leggett. If you don't agree..so be it.

Thought he was an anti vaxxer or covid truther also but maybe I am thinking of someone else?

If that was it then it wasn’t as bad as I remember. 

I thought he went off on Twitter as well. 

I mean, he basically accused the coaching staff of only caring about their own careers, and that is pretty heavy. It also runs in contradiction to basically everything said in the past few years. So did they do a 180? Or was Moe just bitter? 

If that was it then I’m over it. 
 

 

Who was crying about it?

I’m sure mo was really bitter.  I would be in his spot. He and randle just had rotten luck and couldn’t keep it together long enough. But those two guys started the defensive and winning turn around. They paid a whole lot of sweat equity. 
 Iirc mo was hurt came back late wasn’t the same and wasn’t in the next years camp.

This increases Strevy's chances of being on a game day roster:

 

 

Needs some more play time so he can be ready for his return to Winnipeg in 2025 :D

I always liked Mo as a player and a person. If this is bad beans about his former team and the way he was treated, then it isn't much. I'm glad his is still doing his thing no matter what league it may be and wish him all the best. Until his Achilles tear he was an amazing player and a key cog on this team. I don't

 

see any really bad stuff against his former team or the way he was treated here.

"Red gloves" he looked good, signed with the Elks last season, but didn't see the field much.

He signed with Edmonton late last year as well before moving on to the XFL where he actually got some meaningful playing time.

It’s crazy to me scouts would rather take a chance on him, rather than Schoen who was the absolute best receiver in the CFL as a rookie. Makes no sense.

I've completely given up trying to figure out what the NFL wants when it comes to signing CFL/XFL/USFL players.  Guys who deserve a chance, don't get one while guys who have done relatively little get picked up.  I feel bad for the players who have earned it but at the same time, the NFL's loss is our gain.

If players are looking for another chance to make the NFL the XFL seems to be a viable options. 21 XFL players have signed NFL contracts so far.  I think their season's schedule is a benefit as NFL rookie and mini camps start up just as the XFL season ends.

Who cares about Mo Leggett & this entire thread? Once a player leaves the Bombers to play elsewhere I really don't care anymore. Especially a guy who bad mouths the team that gave him his first break. Other yhan a player who moves on to the NFL as that is the Big Show but someone who plays in the Arena League, XFL or USFL???? Pfffft. Just don't give a damn.
