Riders- Blacks Thursday
Watching the game right now ... Carter is pitiful on the corner. Absolutely pitiful. You have to question any roster decision where you essentially bench a top 10 receiver in the league in order to get a below replacement level DB on the field. That being said, I wouldn't want that idiot anywhere near our team. Very Muamba-esque in the sense that there's probably a big reason he only plays for losers. Rider D notably better when it's Eguovean (whatever) in the middle with Judge at WIL, as opposed to Hurl in the middle and that alphabet guy at WIL. Another questionable decision - cutting Travis Bond so you can essentially hold an audition at his spot two games into the year? LOL are they seriously rotating Bladek and this American pylon? Wow. Collaros hurt is a shame ... for Collaros. Don't care about Rider Nation after what they had to say about Nichols getting hurt.

I'm going to roll with ... Andrew Harris

Travis Bond was great here, he was going to be great in Saskatchewan and he'll be great in Edmonton. Riderfans, for the most part, is full of idiots and I feel as if I've become a happier person since I stopped going over there to read their insanity.

D for Disaster (not D Fence)
This is one of those things people are going to use to harp on you about how you make too many threads. This could easily fit in any post game discussion thread. You haven’t even created anything of substance here. You have four sentences, one fact and one thought. I’ll share my thoughts though, since I don’t feel like being the guy who comes in here just to tell you what a grave mistake you’ve made ... our D looked predictable and unfortunately, it was being outcoached that did us in from what I saw ... didn’t catch the whole game, but I saw the end and it’s a classic case of being far too predictable in your schemes and trying to go to the well too many times. Might work against a Streveler ... not against a Reilly

I’ll give them a game or two leeway to gel, but if we waste the immense level of talent we have on D by allowing Richie to be Richie ...

I’m loving it ... had to jet to work but I’m sure I’ll catch the end of the 4th quarter when I’m off at 7 this morning.

Game Day Thread - League Opener: Eskies
Today is the beginning of the STREVELER ERA Bombers by 370 Streveler goes 5 for 6 for 13 yards and 5 TDs, rushes for 289 yards on 14 carries and the Bombers set a CFL record with 5 different players carrying the ball 10+ times, including Jake Thomas as a fullback.

Some light reading
I mean ... seems pretty fair. Nichols being out could be a huge loss for us that makes it impossible for us to catch the top 2.

I’d personally like to see Bryant in and Lankford out.

Cut Down Day - - Wild Assed Guesses (WAG System)
But that’s where it comes down to recognizing what you’re scouting for as a team. Why bring in a guy if he’s not going to supplant a veteran and his best shot is a role you know he won’t accept? i mean, from what we can see (which obviously isn’t everything) he couldn’t really have done much more in camp.

I want to see where Lankford ends up, hoping it’s not on the active roster. Something has to give between him and Thompkins.

Surprised yet not that Myles White got cut. Was hoping he'd pan out but he didn't look like the stud he was pumped up to be in camp.

Anyone selling tickets to the opener?
Looks like I'm going to be able to make it with my schedule - just wondering if anyone has unused ones I can buy before I check Ticketmaster. Let me know .. I'd prefer lower bowl for my dad, but I also don't think we're in the market for the elite priced seats. You can PM me with any tickets you have for sale. Not looking for a deal. Thanks!

I'd rather we not win a single game this year than welcome that ****ing loser back to this franchise.

Bombers announce Nichols is out 4-6 weeks. Now to go laugh at John Hodge on Twitter.

Around the League: 2018 Season
(FWIW I did hear yesterday from someone I would trust that it didn't look good, but the information I heard today was specifically mentioning that "it sounds like it's not as bad as first thought") I'm not a doctor so I don't know what would change from yesterday to today, but could it have been some kind of issue where they were thinking it was a tear but not able to tell until swelling went down or something and now that it has, it's revealed itself to not be a tear? (again ... not a doctor, so maybe someone more familiar with this stuff can educate me here?)

Around the League: 2018 Season
I have heard multiple whispers today that the injury is looking more like a 6-8 weeker than a season ender, but that's just a whole bunch of "word around the stadium today" talk, not information from anyone I'd be particularly confident in.

Training Camp 2018
If we were going to roll with a guy like Adams, I'd honestly rather just get Glenn to back up Chris Streveler. If possible.
