Are you kidding? Everything is coming up Bombers. No starting qb, star running back suspended, but ticket free agent receiver released. Riders might as well throw in the towel now because there is no reason the bombers should win, so clearly they are going to squeak out a close win on the backs of a big defensive or special teams play which won't really count because of stats.

It's stupid arrogant crap like this that gets rider fans laughed at in every other city in the league. You seriously believe that it's the fans who make or break players? Get over yourselves.

Well considering all the clean tests previously.... all of them that a guy gets dinged for trace amounts does not diminish his career, just shows he wasn't careful with what he was taking and had to serve a suspension for it. But hey guess nothing he did is real right? String him up and make an example right?

Because Bob Irving isn't a rumour monger. He reports the facts not speculation and conjecture.

Yeah Harris' legacy is completely intact, just because Rider fans want to pretend otherwise doesn't make it true.

Can be said for any game by this team really. They play close games win or lose, just what they do.

So as expected it'll be a RB by committee thing. No problems with that.

The real factor is that the bombers have a couple fire hydrants plugging up the middle of the line and just stomp out the run. You'll appreciate it after this weekend I am sure. No one talks enough about Stove and Nevis and they work they do for the Bombers.

Guess that explains why he pulled out of the US open....

he had a great start last year too and faded, which I believe is the point here. What you do in the summer in the CFL really doesn't matter, what matters is how you do in the fall. A guy like Jefferson started slow and has been heating up.

probably hughes

I was gonna say, look at that helmet! Crackin' skulls.

I know and I have been pissed at him in games for gassing what should be easy catches, I'm just wondering how a guy forgets how to play football in one offseason. Cause he was pretty good for Calgary last year.

well why can't we talk about that? Not like Bo Levi Douchebag has played much this year or that well last year...

I know they guy wasn't doing what they signed him to do and he put too many balls on the ground, but man I don't really care for this... well gotta believe I suppose. Adams coming back is good, just gotta wonder why someone like Matthews who did well in Calgary last year is so useless here...

How do you stop a guy who has 10 foot long arms and even if you think he's safely past the qb can just reach back and slap the ball out of his hands? The wingspan on that guy is just insane.

rider fans are a delicate bunch.

yes

If I ignore wrong opinions how will those people ever learn from their mistakes?

When they win the cup this year it is going to be the most spite filled cup every and I am going to enjoy every minute of it.

See if old man elemimian can still run.

Half of the thread on riderfans is them bitching about bomber fans and acting superior. So classic riderfans stuff I suppose. God do I want streveler to RIP that team a new ******* on Sunday.

Yeah I would expect that inside the locker room guys know the story for the most part. If a guy is juicing I doubt it's something that gets kept under wraps and they wouldn't go out and have a guys back just for fun.

Just given the reaction of Harris and his team mates and his coaches I'd be inclined to believe it was unintentional. Mistake not being more careful about what he's taking for sure, but to me he owned up to that. In the end I don't really care, steroid use has been an issue in the league for a long time and I don't see that ever changing. Just thump the riders on Sunday with a bunch of backups. That's all I want.

Well that's just it. Harris is a great runner, but his true value is the other aspects. Receiving, blocking all that. I have no doubts with our offensive line that someone else can effectively run the ball.
