Going back over the years and looking back at the hold out names we drafted, that didn't work out, how about the obvious one sitting on the tsn panel Henoc Muamba....We wined and dined the guy and his family...bent over backwards to sign him ,then he did a tour of the CFL AND suddenly signed with Montreal....I still have problems with this guy, whenever I see him mouthing it up on games

My buddies and I (somewhat jokingly) talk **** about him every time we see him on the panel for this very reason...

....nice to see I'm not alone...I don't think he has many fans in the Peg....sort of a 'persona non grata' around here....and that's being kind

I'm not a huge Muamba fan either for that reason. He was selfish & chased the money rather than stick with a team through it all & go for the championships. Which is his right but there was very little loyalty there. Forget loyalty to the individual clubs as they'd cut Muamba the minute his performance started to erode. But to his teammates & brothers. The one year deals allowed Muamba to change teams every year.

A bar is a bar in Winnipeg and Toronto. Same **** really. You know what they also have more of? Meth heads. So I guess you’d be sitting in your hotel huh. 

Not exactly true,  most cities push their meth heads/bums to the side and away from where tourists and people hang out.   Winnipeg is the exception where everywhere is unsafe downtown.     

Also nightlife in Toronto/Vancouver/Montreal is light years ahead in terms of quantity and quality.

I don't mind that he chased the money, careers are short. I do mind him yelling his opinions on the panel. Dude is a big part of what's wrong with the TSN panel.

'okay everyone remember bring that cringe level way up, be yelly, and most importantly don't be yourself and authentic, contrive every word and movement!' Action!

I thought Muamba got better as the season went on. He started to tone things down & actually made some good points. Still don't like him. Probably never will.  I'll take TBurg;s sentence & change it to describe my feelings, "I don't mind him yelling his opinions. I do mind that he chased the dollars selfishly constantly changing teams letting his teammates & fans down". I don't respect Muamba like I do Sanchez or MIlt because of it. Muamba's legacy will always be chasing the money. That CFL tour he had was embarrassing.

Muamba got better...can tolerate him a bit...Sanchez I like...not sure why many hate on him...is it the hate of Sanchez the player?

Milton is good when not told by producers to be the antagonist or whatever it is they directing him to be

Kate...lost cause...gets worse as the yrs roll by..she truly thinks its the Kate variety show...she needs to go

every time I see Milt and Sanchez together on the panel I am hoping just a little bit that Milt pulls a Joe Kapp.
