Rod Black

This loss makes the RR fans only a little less insufferable.

Who am i kidding? No, it doesn't.

Ignorant putzs who have stretched the boundary of good taste and sportsmanship and lowered it into their luxury two-hole sometimes mobile, storage containers.

Welcome back to the real world.

Prepare for a long stay.

I disagree with you, Rod. its the 99% that give the others a bad name.

He's gone from this site but he may be trying to use different IP addresses with different names to get back on here. Be diligent. Report any suspicious activity to the mod team here. Suspect everyone & befriend no one.

Guess Migs is going to stop giving Taman and Durant rimjobs now. Ah who am I kidding, no he won't.

Head walloping the turf, body immediately straightening out, rubber leg street when trying to get up. He looked horribly hurt. Helluva player. Hope he's ok.

Just about everyone here knows I cheer for the Stamps as my second team. Reason? I've lived in Calgary since 1990 so i think it's the thing to do.  I've coached football with a number of former Stamps. I spent an entire day of training camp in 2002 with the Stamps as a guest of the team & had lunch with them. Hung out with the coaches. sat in on a defensive meeting & out on the field on the sidelines with the players that day for both practices. Players treated me like I was one of their own. Lot of kibitzing & kidding around on the sidelines. Met Wally Buono that day as well as former Stamps prez Stan Schwartz who didn't seem to like me being there. Especially for lunch as he seemed to be counting pennies & I was an unnecessary expense in his mind. Greg Peterson the former safety with the Stamps kind've told him to chill & that was the end of it. Greg whispered to me that he's in big trouble now with Stan but not to worry about it. Guess Greg went ahead & set things up thru Wally but no one told Schwartz & he wasn't impressed. Bit of tension between Greg & Stan that day. I appreciated everything Greg did for me including sticking his neck out for me. But the Blue & Gold blood is still in my veins. Always will be.

I was cold, I was wet, but I got a high five from Watson, Teague, and Johnny Sears and got some game worn gloves (I think Willys). And saw one of the worst streaks ever mercifully end. Absolutely one of the best days of my life....

TORONTO -- The Canadian Football League announced today two executive fines.
Toronto Argonauts General Manager Jim Barker has been fined $2,500 for violating the league’s sideline policy by positioning himself on the goal line directly behind an official, and attempting to communicate with that official, during play #130 of last Saturday’s game between the Argos and Hamilton Tiger-Cats.
Barker has also been informed that he will not be permitted on the sidelines during play for the remainder the Argos’ 2014 regular season and post season.
Hamilton Tiger-Cat Owner Bob Young has been fined $10,000 for public comments criticizing CFL officiating.

no this is 100% false. Some opinions can be dumb and incorrect and some smart and correct. "I like chocolate more than vanilla" is a subjective opinion that depends on the person expressing said opinion, "In my opinion Drew Willy can't read a defense" is a dumb and incorrect opinion. 

I'd say we're fairly lenient. That being said, you'd probably be shocked at how much we do get rid of.
 
I won't speak for any of the other moderators or administrators around here, but I find that the majority of what I have to delete is stuff that stems from people not being willing or interested in using the report function and just taking it upon themselves to open fire on a post they deem against the code of conduct.
 
Myself, I very rarely see any posts that our members have reported. A few now and then.

In 2011 I did a study on the ourbombers community, looking to see how members posting' frequency varied in the 3 days following wins vs. the 3 days following losses.
 
What I found was that certain posters were way more likely to post in the days following a loss. Losses seemed to energize those posters, making them louder.
 
I also noticed that a lot of the posters that I personally respect were participating consistently no matter how the team was doing.
 
(here's the results: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AiLFGLZnbIP9dC1UaGRVRWNzd2Z4Q3o5Ni1RQ25vc2c&usp=drive_web#gid=0)

To me, one of the biggest things this year is that penalties were absolutely just killing offensive rhythms. And a lot of it was ticky tack stuff.
 
I think if you polled fans, not many of us would want to see big plays called back by silly ticky tack penalties.
 
I don't think I've thought this through enough to say it's the best idea, but I'd propose something like this - if there is an infraction on the play, unless the penalty being committed directly contributes to the result of the play, then I don't want to see it wipe out the play.
 
Best example I can give is that huge completion to Romby Bryant that was called back by a hands to the face penalty. What I'd ideally like to see happen there? Apply the penalty after the gain. It was illegal but it had no direct impact on the play itself. So if Romby scores there ... put the Bombers on the 10. The only caveat I'd put on this is that objectionable conduct (facemask, etc) penalties would wipe out plays entirely.
 
I've just seen too many big plays called back by stupid penalties that took place WAY away from the play. Nobody wants to see a 50 yard catch and run called back because there was offensive holding on the entirely opposite side of the field. Not with the way our referees throw flags. It was just painful this year.

You can free up disk space by deleting all the posts of Rider fans.

Congrats on Denmarks first plus Kilometer receiving season.

I'm just in awe with IGF Stadium. Fantastic facility. Last week was talking to some Stamp fans, that came in for the stamp/flame extravaganza last weekend. They told me they had just visited Levi Stadium for a Niners game. They were more than Imprssed with IGF and favourably compared it with the NFL local franchise. It was clear that comparing a 1.3 billion dollar facilty to a much smaller 300 million dollar facility is very tough. Their comments were so very kind though that in mentioning the comparison they were just as happy with IGF as Levi, AND IGF was greater value for the construction buck.

Welcome back. We all missed you during your lengthy time away.

Migs Riders are looooosing. Joseph is a POS.

Mig changed his reason for leaving. Typical. Can't control himself.Enters an adversaries site as a rival
Disrespects very Bomber fan.
Expects to be treated with respect.
Undertakes to leave.
Changes his mind less than 12hours later.
Continues to post even after being told to leave in clear terms, by many

Mig, you left because you looked at the tone. That is your position.
I wanna post a youtube link Pee Wee's "I know you are but what am I?"
Good luck in finding your bike.

Look in a mirror pal. If it was about just football you wouldn't have posted on every CFL site in existence the past 10 or more years. You can smile all you want but you have no friends here... 

Migs is leaving? Believe that when they have a cure for Ebola. 

StL...you aren't alone in asking that question. wondering if the wife knows the content of is "football discussions"?
