Dinwiddie calls Winnipeg the team that everyone is trying to model themselves after. That team used to be Calgary, he said, though it’s still a good organization.
Dinwiddie’s been asked a number of times about his tenure as a player in Winnipeg. He said he got a text from Kevin Glenn a few days ago, who works with the team’s third-string quarterback Ben Holmes.

Dinwiddie and O’Shea played against one another on Aug. 1, 2008. Dinwiddie was a playing for Winnipeg, O’Shea for Toronto.

Dinwiddie says he hopes local fans aren’t selling their tickets to Winnipeg fans but understands that’ll probably be the case.
He’s hopeful that local fans will cheer for Toronto, which seems fair. They certainly won’t be cheering for Winnipeg.
