Is this some post-Toronto groveling/humiliation ritual?
Because you don’t need to apologize for anything anymore.

Troy Barrett | Ottawa Centaurs ✔️ @troybarrett18
As a lot of you may have seen, people have been sharing screenshots of receipts showing that I sent them money. That is true. However, in doing so, I was called “egotistical” and “performative.” (1/?)

Someone else most definitely explained this already, by our man Troy is THE number one defender of women. When his ex-teammate/bestie was accused of SA a little over a year and a half ago, he joined TWT/IG JUST to talk shit about this guy and post about SA and overall protecting women. He almost got benched for it.
