It is a great article and a testament to Rasheed Bailey's character and heart. I believe we have several like him on the team and we are blessed they are Blue Bombers.

Looking forward to more from Rasheed in the future.

One of the glue guys. Wasn't that long ago some unappreciated what he brought and he has been very consistent.

Great letter from Sheed. I think we all love his heart and passion and most are glad he's here. There other players we gave chances that could have stolen his spot this season, But Sheed always showed why he deserved to be there. He's as prickly a blocker as Darvin was. He made his own crazy catches when given the shots. He took the punishment on the short passes. When the ball was in his hands, it almost always stayed there.

He, along with Zach, might be the guys with the biggest chip on their shoulders after '22. I wouldn't want to be the one trying to stop him from completing his business...

What a beauty. And what a great read.

He truly embodies the FIFO spirit in every way.

Thanks very much had not seen that.

Bailey is one of my favourite Bombers.

Heart and soul guy. Good luck to him Grey Cup Sunday!

His rant on camera near the end of the '19 GC is probably my all time favorite:

"Keep going. Do not stop. I came from the bottom. All the way to the top."

Almost as good is AH33 a few mins later:

"We're coming home with that cup. Woooooooooo"

I hope we get some great quotes from this GC too.

I guess I don't know his story very well, what was that about the Superbowl?

I simply interpreted it as he went to the game.

That was my interpretation as well. He was there as a spectator seems like a pretty logical conclusion.
