The Winnipeg Blue Bombers (officially the Winnipeg Football Club) was formed in 1930 as the Winnipeg Winnipegs. The name was certainly not original in the slightest, and was soon shortened to the Winnipeg Pegs. The Pegs adopted their present colours of blue and gold in 1932. They soon became a football powerhouse on the Canadian prairies. In 1935, the Winnipeg Pegs became the first team from western Canada to win the Grey Cup. The following summer, the Winnipeg Pegs were playing an exhibition game in North Dakota. Apparently they were trouncing their opposition that day. Joe Louis, then the reigning heavyweight boxing champion, was known by the nickname "the brown bomber" because he also thoroughly trounced most of his opponents. Legend has it that during the game a young sports reporter with the Winnipeg Tribune, Vince Leah, happened to remark, "these are the blue bombers of football," which was a takeoff on the nickname for Joe Louis. Since that day the Winnipeg Football Club has been known as the Blue Bombers.
He is back in the NFL! He is playing for the Washington Redskins. The Mike Sellers that plays with Washington is a tight end...there is no mention of him playing in the Canadian Football League...his bio indicates he played with other NFL teams but no Canadian teams...is this the same Mike Sellers? Mike Sellers played the 2002 and 2003 seasons with the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. He returned to the NFL in 2004 with the Washington Redskins and, as of training camp in 2007, has been with them ever since. he played for the Winnipeg blue bombers as a fullback GO BOMBERS!!!!!!!!!!!! Mike Sellers was always the Redskins primary starting Fullback, he only played TE secondarily under certain conditions.
