Reffing on the field is a hard, thankless task. Game speed with professional athletes. Mistakes will be made.
But sitting in a booth will a tv monitor, slow motion, camera angles, pause, rewind, zoom?
They continue to get things wrong. That's just incompetence, plain and simple. No excuse.
The ball was out before he crossed the line. How difficult is that to see?

3 bad calls and still no win. No QB pressure on old QB 5 and still no win. Chance to win on the last play of the game and still no win. Yep Jones still sucks.
The Riders OLine will be tested next week. Bombers are solid up front.

Even with a fake TD "moral victory" and "better than last year" are making the rounds. Meanwhile in MTL they are are going to quickly discover they wont beat many with that offense. They used to rely on defense to patch things over but it looked last night those days are gone
Typical Chaps game plan. So frustrating to watch. Lions fans know what I'm talking about.
Ive read over at RFs that Jones is more coach than GM. He's proving to be an awful GM and his in game coaching decisions are sorely lacking. A cold Young QB into the game at the 5 yard line with the game in the balance? Clock management in the last minute? Looked foolish.

I took Durant and Ernest Jackson on my draft kings team. I fully expect to see a focused Darian Durant put up big numbers against his former team.
You should have taken Tyrell Sutton. That's where the Als will win; they will run all over the Riders.
Durant will have an average evening. 1 maybe 2 passing TD's

The whole thing was an exercise in jerking off the rider fan base. Not sure if they figure that Rider fans might not watch if they don't pump sunshine up the Riders asses or if they just want to avoid all the **** talking from that fan base if they do anything but praise the glory of the Riders, but either way I don't think they actually believe that, just trying to placate the Rider fans for what ever reason.
Obviously the show was recorded earlier this year. Shultz tuned in to some reality last weekend in BC. The Rider season can go 2 ways; mediocre or disaster. We'll get an inkling tomorrow. How that admin thought they could go into a season without a secondary or a top tier QB is beyond me. Now, Masoli, Tate, Mathews are far fromtop tier QBs at this point, but they aresure better than anything they have right now.
But Jones ego said Vince Young. And here they are.

Glenn, Owens, Young....he's looking for leadership. He sent that away to Montreal.
Ego. Nothing more, nothing less. He wanted to be the big cheese in Sasky. Sometimes cheese stinks.

Owens just put on the six game. Keep em coming Jonsie.
Jones and Murphy's FA signings and recruiting have been abysmal. Did Mr. Reynolds get the wool pulled over his eyes?

Hearing a few whispers we may be signing Canadian receiver Brett Blaszko, which I'd be all for.
EDIT: Penton seems to be hinting at it too.
He didn't show much. But who knows?
The Rider Oline is a couple of years from maturing. Clark, Dyakowski, Coleman are not the answer. I made a comment on the old site that Labatte was rapidly declining. Still believe that. Dennis will be good.

Teams always look like they have depth until the games start and that depth gets exposed. The fans over there think their OL is deep because they have Guy, JSJ, Bladek, and Meredith. Yeah let's see what happens when those guys get into a game...
Lol! Exactly. Depth means bodies that can actually play; not just bodies.

What happens with Saskatchewan when they get hit with injuries?
If we lose a Canadian to an injury, we're starting Patrick Neufeld or Mike Couture or Faith Ekakitie or Thomas Miles or Matt Coates.
If they lose a Canadian to an injury, they're starting Makana Henry or Greg Morris or Tevaughn Campbell.
There's a huge difference there. Add in the fact that there are injury concerns about ... well, nearly half their Canadian starters almost ... and they better hope they stay healthy.
I read a lot over there about their depth. I just don't see any. If they had depth they wouldn't be signing has-beens like Jovan Johnson. Depth behind QB? RB? Secondary? DLine? I don't see it.

What's the news from lions training camp? Any standouts? You guys have a loaded receiving/linebacking core so i'm (and most others here probably) interested to hear if anyone is expected to surprise?
We continue to tinker in the secondary. Trying Chandler Fenner at safety this week. Our draft pick Luke is going to be a force on the Dline. Vaillencourt can't crack the starting Oline. Nick Moore back in a starting role. Receivers are loaded. One spot open for now with Williams out to start the year. Friday will be telling

I couldn't tell you one guy beyond Ed Gainey they plan on starting in their secondary right now, which means even if they have as talented a group as any, it's going to take weeks for them to gel.
DB is one area you need some continuity. Seems they have a revolving door at most positions there. That is an issue.
Edam was not a good safety for us last year. Out of position, dropped sure picks, always trying for a big hit and not succeeding instead of playing the ball/man.
The re-build in Sasky continues I guess. I'm still trying to get my head around Vince Young. Why on God's green earth......??

Ripper, I like you. You come here and you take your lumps and you manage to be more than tolerable, which is waaaay more than I can say for most other Rider fans.
But I've seen this story before. Lots.
Letting go of Durant wasn't the mistake. Letting go of him this year was. If Jones was going to cast off Durant without a proper replacement, he should've done it right from the get go year one. This is going to be the second year wasted because of that decision.
Your defense might be great. I have my doubts, but one never really knows. That being said, I've seen a lot of great Bomber defenses on 6-12 or 7-11 teams because they didn't have a QB. And you don't have a QB.
And that about sums it up.

I don't have any clue why anyone thinks a Kevin Glenn/Vince Young combination is going to be a plus .500 team.
I can't even deny it - the rest of their roster looks pretty good. I like a lot of their pieces. Their receivers are ridiculous, they've got a stud DE in Willie Jefferson, I like the looks of their OL for the most part and I think their secondary will surprise people.
But they don't have a ****ing quarterback and that's really not something you can discount at all. On top of that, they don't have a stud RB to take any pressure off their mediocre QBs either.
They're going to be dead in the water. I see them winning 6 games at most.
If the Riders improve by 100% they still wouldn't have enough wins to make the playoffs in the west. In order to secure a spot in the west you have to beat the west teams.....consistently. The Riders are 2-18 against the west over the past 2 seasons; and while they have improved in certain spots so have the rest of the western teams. So I ask, where will the wins come from against the eastern teams with KG as QB, and if he goes down or craps the bed an old has-been that hasn't played in 6 freakin' years.
QB, RB, Oline, DB's are all ????.

The rumour coming out of Rider land is that Chris Jones forced the local radio station CKRM to fire their decades-long colour broadcaster Carm Carteri because he was not a Jones fan.
Pathetic, really.
If true....Trump-like.

what?
Walters literally wasted a pick on Gray and still did better than Sask, Lion and Esks
Bombers had a good draft, but so did Wally. Plugged some holes nicely.
I'm not sold on the Riders draft. There are some question marks there

As I have said in the past RFs is a valuable CFL site with a majority of good caring fans. They are bias, but it's their site. As with every site, or workplace, or family there are always a few that take things too seriously. There are a few over there that I could have beers and laughs with and few over there that I wouldn't give the time of day to. RS is an inconsistent loose cannon. I had enough PMs from too many people saying they sympathized and that RS was an issue. He is still by the looks of things Gov has an issue there he needs to address, but I wish their site no ill will and much success.

While I readily admit my dislike for everything Riders that is a real shame, hard to believe no backup was done?
Perhaps instead of trying to be the Rider super insider that all RFs revere, with mega sources and vital insider Rider information that he just can't share for fear of outing those sources, the Super Administrator over there should have been, oh, I don't know, actually spending some time being the site administrator??
So all their info and data is gone huh? Well I know one thread in particular that will live forever; the infamous Ridergirl thread over there that I copied and pasted into word and sits in my desk drawer on a storage drive. That amongst others. Too funny.

TV people are there to create hype. Controversy is golden to them. They say things to get reactions.
See? He got one.
