A big fat no to Richie Hall (been there done that).  Sammy Hurl?  For the right price I'd love to have him back.  Of course he'd not be a starter but in some situations and on teams he'd be a solid contributor.

Nope.  At a similar salary I'd take Nichols over Glenn in a heartbeat.

I thought that he punted it straight out of bounds but it must have bounced.
 
More stellar camera work from the boys at TSN I guess.

Wonder Pets. My Daughter's favourite.

Burris doesn't have the right mental makeup to play on an expansion team. Glenn would have been a much better choice but Desjardins isn't the sharpest knife in the drawer.

Merchandising sales, ticket sales, tv numbers etc say they are great fans. Hell, the fact there is still a team in Saskatchewan after how long they sucked is testament to being great fans. Think you guys have had a dry spell? The Riders up to 1966 sucked, from 1976 to 1989 and then from 1992 until around 2003. Some of the worst teams of all times.
Good fans? I'd say.

For sure. If there is no threat of aggravating his injury play him.

Yeah, why are they sticking with this bum?
 
If they were smart they'd put in the guy who started the first 6 games.  Now that guy was decent.

I'm considering everything. I'm not asking them to be stellar players, but what makes them good late round draft picks?
 
Do they stand out in comparison to OTHER late round draft picks? Not really.
 
They fit right in there with guys like Cam Thorn, Shane Bergman, Elie Ngoyi, Matt McGarva, Derek Jones, Michael Klassen, Neil King, David Menard, Thomas Miles, Alex Dupuis, etc etc. Nothing special, just decent young players who can fit in if necessary. And that's all you can really ask of them. But that doesn't make them VERY good.

Before I joined here I did a bit of "lurking." Blaming childish bickering on recent Rider fans is quite a stretch. All message boards have childish bickering for better or worse.

Solid move if the Riders can extend Boudreaux beyond the season. A 25 year old DE who had 7 sacks in 12 games last year? Decent depth. Flipping 3rd rounders for 4th rounders is no big deal but the Neg Lister could be.

I know, but Brice is stating that if Etch is still here next year, the blame should fall on Walters shoulders.  Which is incorrect.

The quality has been dropping for a long time.  This site should be about football, but it's become more about petty arguments, whining, and attacking other posters and thats not just the rider fans.  It's a tough slog to find any actual football talk these days.

I think that we should give Willy a week of rest even if he can go this week. Despite the lack of confidence I have in Brohm, along with the importance of this game Willy's health is much more important long term than anything that could possibly happen this season. The last thing we need is for him to go out there and aggravate the injury.

It does matter.  If the game is on the line will he make the catch?  Reliability matters big time at all positions.

I want a new running back that can pass catch and averages 8.5 yards a carry.
I want two new international receivers, one a clone of Jerry Rice and the other a clone of Randy Moss.
I want a new national tackle that is a clone of Walby.
I want a clone of Doug Brown for DT.
I want TSN to pull Rod Black from CFL telecasts.

Willy holds onto the ball too long though, he's always looking for the home run, throws too many picks as he's still learn'in.

NANAIMO -- RCMP say Michael "Pinball" Clemons will be getting his Grey Cup ring back after it was taken by a woman at B.C. Place Stadium during the Toronto Argonauts game against the Lions on Friday.
 
The former Argonaut player and current vice-chair of the team reportedly threw one of his four championship rings into the crowd for fans to look at during the game when a woman walked away with it.
 
Constable Gary O'Brien said in a release Saturday night that the 30-year-old Nanaimo woman later returned the ring to RCMP officials, who are making arrangements to return it to Clemons.
 
"She feels absolutely terrible about the situation and told the officer she wants Mr. Clemons to know she had no intention of keeping it and just wanted to do the right thing by turning it in," O'Brien said.
 
The woman told police she was sitting in the front row when Clemons threw the ring into the crowd. She also said she waited for security to retrieve the ring but left after no one approached her.
 
The Argos reached out to fans via Twitter on Saturday morning, asking them to be "on the lookout" for the ring and to contact police with any information.

Ottawa has a very good defence, they held Edm to 10pts & BC to 7pts. Tino's final numbers were 20/32 for 260yards 2TDs Oints & a QB rating of 107. Sorry Mike but those are very good numbers for a QB making his 2nd start.

Quick call the wahmbulance!

Burris doesn't have the right mental makeup to play on an expansion team. Glenn would have been a much better choice but Desjardins isn't the sharpest knife in the drawer.

All knowledgeable fans now how bad it is. And no fan should be relieved they got the calls on any given game because one day you wont and your team will be victimized as bad as they were helped. Guranteed.

20-20. Broncos got a TD with a 2 point convert, just like the Riders. Going to overtime.
