Me too, when we were in the east I felt that the riders were my second fav team- but rf.com and the fact we moved back west- has strained that considerably. 

Even when I was an every day active participant on team forums, I didnt post on ourbombers. It was generally only after games between the two or a comment here or there that was always met with me being a rider troll. So I stuck at esksfans and gostampsgo where if I commented after a game, it might seem like trolling, but I had reputation behind me.

We will see what happens when they come here.

 

I dont hold out much hope for the Riders. YOU are one of few here that *would by the name I used to use* remember me from when I used to be on these sites a long time ago. Not from this one. Ourbombers sporatically, but back in the day on the stamps and esks sites

You should take that to riderfans- they need some of that over there. 

When I used to heavily participate in these forums years ago (not this name), it was always on other forums. I was banned from the rider site back in the ridergirl days. Reinstated after that, posted for a year maybe.

  My posts here over the last few weeks (all right now except for 1  a couple weeks ago) are all Ive posted in years. And I didnt really post here then either.

But  Im a rare breed in that the bombers have been my 2nd favorite team my entire life.

I think that gif was supposed to be in jest. 

Ok, I missed that. I apologize in that case.

My apologies for bringing common sense and objectivity into the discussion. 

You are absolutely right. You lost this game because your #1 defense crapped the bed against a terrible offense and the bombers missing star players on offense meant they couldnt bail the defense out against a team with a defense as terrible as the rest of the team.

To be fair, Collaros wasn't much of a starter anyways so Fajardo really isn't their second string qb, 

But according to Bomber fans on this site, neither was Nichols much of a starter when he was playing.  There are threads after every game this season to prove that (or at least a season long Nichols complaint thread that died ONLY after he got hurt).

I would understand fans criticizing the Riders defense, considering the Bombers offense owned the 2nd half statistically despite missing key players on that side.. but does the Riders offense suck??   Or did the Bombers #1 ranked defense, that they rely on to win EVERY game, make them look bad?   Either the Riders crappy offense made the Bombers defense look good or the Bombers great defense made a good offence struggle. You cant claim both.

For one sacks are highly overated and not a true indicator of a "good" line..get back to me when you see points allowed...rushing yards against...yards gained per first down and then digest that back in Sask as I assume that's where your sad lil post originated from

Evan's is useless and doesnt warrant salary he pulls in and anyone can see that.

Johnson has shown he cant do it alone and needs complimentary peices to obtain sexy stats and if you had any football acumen you'd know generally most interior guys get a double team generally..and he got doubled lots in CGY.. and had other guys taking attention away from him

Hughes as usual I bgg getting his fancy stats early on..feasting on horrid Bc and T.O olines...but when games matter and down stretch he disappears and is a non factor...2 years running and I bet this year wont be any different...so maybe sight is hardly a stretch by any means

Hughes has had 1 sack against a quality oline...(Calgary and Ham) and 1 against average Ottawa..the rest piled up against BC and T.O...color me not impressed...a College team would pile sacks up against that garbage

I could say it, but I wont.

A lot of Johnsons success was a result of guys around him..and he..or the others freeing each other up...on sask  well Evan's blows..A.C Leonard isnt a top 6 DE in league and Hughes is reaping rewards of Johnson getting teamed and getting stats..but that will dissapear post Labour day when his old body shuts it down for the yr like it has the last 2

I said right from TC that Johnson would be insignificant there once he has to do all the heavy lifting..and at 250k a year that's a nice hamstring around that loser organization's neck..along with Evan's around 200k and the 160 or so Hughes steals from them for a half yrs work

So everyone on Sasks Dline sucks yet they are 2nd in sacks? Johnson is useless but yet he warrants a double team? And Hughes falls off when its all on him, despite being the sack leader 3 years in a row between cal/sask and leading again this year? Ok. A lot can be said about the Riders but your pushing it with this "insight".
