Mourtada is from Sierra Leone, which is in West Africa, nowhere near the middle east. Song from movie, take-off on the name, no racial undertones.

Calgary, if they can win, which I doubt, can pull within one game of the Riders and take the season series. If they managed to finish with the same record, they host the West SF. Then, it would be between the Riders and Lions to see who goes to Calgary and who goes East for the playoffs. If nothing else, it makes the West interesting for the rest of the year.

Our 1st and a 3rd for their 2nd and Ward. Basically, swapping 9 for 10.

🎶 Hakuna Mourtada... It means no field goals For the rest of your games It's our speacial teams philosophy Hakuna Mourtada! 🎶

Was hoping that they would go for 2 on that last TD. If they had done so, I think that they would have scored in every possible way. Touchdown, extra-point conversion, rouge, and safety. Other than different variations of TDs (passing, rushing, defensive), I think the only thing missing was a two point conversion.

Last night, we were wondering if we could get to the half scoring more points than Edmonton had yards.

They just said you needed pants on. That rule applies to kids and adults.

Best team in the AL. Third lowest payroll. Trash organization.

Black Children Were Jailed for a Crime That Doesn’t Exist. Almost Nothing Happened to the Adults in Charge. Judge Donna Scott Davenport oversees a juvenile justice system in Rutherford County, Tennessee, with a staggering history of jailing children. She said kids must face consequences, which rarely seem to apply to her or the other adults in charge. https://www.propublica.org/article/black-children-were-jailed-for-a-crime-that-doesnt-exist What a messed up system. For profit judges. Murica.

Q: Did anyone do the tailgating at the Plaza at the Banjo Bowl? My son has asked to go tonight but I am not sure if they've brought back the activities for the kids, like the bouncy castle, etc. I might have to ask the Bombers directly.

Funny story but NSFW (at all).

September 30th is orange shirt day and chosen to commemorate the legacy of residential schools. This is an important date in reconciliation and why it was chosen. We should rename Victoria Day and find someone (or something else) to commemorate on this day. But, May Long Weekend (May Two-Four in ON), as it's colloquially called, would never effectively get the attention that September 30th has.

I disagree with this assessment of Bob's position. He knows the league is in trouble and spoke to it many times but he believes the problems are ours and the solutions must be ours.

Who's "they"? And, maybe the founder of Manitoba should be on the flag? But, I would prefer not.

My experience at Rider games has been first class. A few mouthy fans but who doesn't? Anyways, Elks are here. Let's send them packing like we sent those Oilers packing.

More than a handful... but I agree, we need a new, more inclusive flag that celebrates the many cultures and traditions that make up Manitoba.

Some good people from MBB go there, so it can't all be trash, right? Right?

Until the summer ended on LDC. I don't mind the players having some attitude, they have a chance to back it up; however, the organization took out an ad (a billboard) mocking the 1-7 Riders. Not so classy. I don't mind the fans ribbing the opponents but the team shouldn't be trashing one another. Twitter jokes are fine, IMO.

Yes, I should have been clearer. That poster is trash, not all of RF.

They're just trash. EDIT: Adding for clarity, the poster is just trash. Not all of RF or Saskatchewan. I have family in Saskatchewan - they're trash but their neighbours aren't.

For tomorrow night's game: Stamps at Riders. 6pm Central from IG Field (West).
