I am hoping that Weston Dressler is still pissed at Jones for tossing him aside and makes it his goal in life to make then regret it.

Yeah steep rock is nice. Lotta fun memories up there

Ooooo Moosehorn that's a shame as well... Full disclosure I'm from Ashern so I can't really talk either

My sincerest apologies....

Messam

Source please. You will have a hard time convincing me manitoba has more farming than Alberta. I question some of your other examples as well. Manitoba is a pissant economy. Government is the only real industry in that province

Free market system with huge social safety net due to high taxes. Sounds socialist to me. Hell isn't the Norwegian oil company state owned?

Economic diversity, which was the topic of conversation.....

But it's not their oil fund paying for all those thinga. It's being a socialist country.

And a giant tax rate too. Let's not pretend otherwise.

Another 2 cents is that the changes on the ol allowed the run game to be more of a threat and take pressure off the qbs and that coupled with the wake up call got the O in gear. The D was improving before they sat Willy because Hall has shown in his time here that he is willing to tweak things a bit when they aren't working. Said it before, there is more than one factor at work here

Alberta is actually fairly diverse, much moreso than a place like Manitoba. The problem is oil was huge. Like humongous big. It dominated and paid more money than most other industries could match. The Alberta economy before this crash was really overheated. An out of control boom. **** the royalty rate that's a poor argument. We paid low taxes and used oil to fund government instead of taxing people up the ass like norway does.

Let's look at the flip side... 2 losses to calgary who beat everyone, one loss to edmonton with the same record and on in the first week vs montreal.... Seems like maybe the record is what it should be.

It's a turnover league. Win the turn over battle win the game except for rare occasions. Not a qb league. That's the ignorant kind of thinking I'm talking about

What people want is for folks to stop attributing everything to the qb. Hell Willy won against the ticats when the D forced a pile of turnovers too but the haters kept hating on him. You can talk about the play of a quarterback good or bad in wins or losses without the absolute statements some people want to make. Qb is important but it's still just one position

No one wanted you out because you jumped ship, people wanted to highlight your trying to weasel back onto the band wagon and call you out for it. Big difference

that makes back to back games the OL has gotten into the heads of the opponents. When was the last time a bomber team could say that?

I have been very happy with my LG tv, got a decent deal on it and the picture is great, only problem is there's now one dead line of pixels running down the screen that annoys me. It's not bad most of the time but watching something like hockey you notice it against the mostly white background and it's the absolute worst during curling because it's just outside where a normal 4 foot line should be.

barely

Some people just want to rage at the powers that be, plus he's leading a league wide conspiracy against Canada's team, the flagship and cornerstone franchise of the league. He should tread lightly because without the Riders army of unquestionably loyal fans the league would implode in on itself and cease to exist. **** Orridge.

yeah not interested in that, how about they don't mark it up to ridiculousness in the first place?

I always found visions expensive. Truthfully I've seen better deals at best buy when i bought tvs.

Oh come on, it's the Riders, they lose everywhere this year and last.

Honestly I got no problems with them working on a new deal. Would likely include less guaranteed money and more bonuses and Willy probably has the belief that when he gets back in the game, and it'll happen at some point, he can take back the starting job.

Is it really a stretch to think that Willy might have been rushing his deep throws given all the hits he's taken? I mean **** you don't set up properly your throw is going to be tougher to make automatically.
