The band was there for the home opener but not last game. I didn't mind them overall but bands shud be outlawed against covering The Hip.

Wasn't it in the mid-90s that the Bombers were struggling at the gate that they had bands play before the game in hopes up increasing attendance. I also recall around 07-08 the Bombers had bands play at the south end tailgate area.

Greg Ellingson and Brad Sinopoli with TDs in both Ottawa games and Joshua Stangby with one in game two.

Yup, you have to sign in and show photo ID. The policy officially started last year after the Riders got busted for having their pre-practice team.

And also taking a shot at Toronto fans by saying the Riders have more fans attending their practices. One thing to note is that if someone attends Rider practice you have to show ID. Talk about being paranoid.

Speaking of Lions QBs, they are only gonna dress 2 for Friday's game.

Riders signed one of their training camp cuts today - Mark Roberts.

Looking forward to hear the announcer yell Anndreeeeeeeeew HARRRRRISSSS a few times tonight.

There was also that asshat Rider that tried to horsecollar Dressler 10 yards into the endzone.

Some dude at the game had a beer in a cup holder and he said the beer spilt everytime the guy in front of him got out of his seat.

The team also spent close to $20 million towards team amenities (locker room, weight room, barbershop etc) which I understand aren't included in the quoted price tag of the stadium.

The seats at IGF are in fact 2 inches wider.

And the crazy thing is the C'mon Centre saw enough in their eyes to overturn the call. I thought they weren't going to overturn close calls so I guess this wasn't a close call. I'm ok with the call if they use the same standard of catch / no catch all season but I have my doubts that they will.

Roc played in 19 NFL games so he's ineligible. Looks like Alexander, Poop and Washington are eligible however. Jeffcoat by the way played in 9 NFL games.

Yup, if it's a close call the Command Centre will uphold the call on the field. Meanwhile, if it's a close call the officials will rule in favour of the scoring play or turnover so it gets reviewed. It's quite the paradox.

It's comforting to know that the Bombers are practicing 4 times this week and they don't play a game. Meanwhile the Riders have a game and are practicing once in Regina before going to Montreal.

According to some Rider fans the Bombers were caught sleeping and Jones was able to sign Bennett and Bingham. Now, they've both been released.

Best thing I read was some Rider fans aren't concerned with the score in last night's game. They think the Lions had more to play for because they need to sell tickets so they had to put on a good show for their fans. Lol

Denmark was interviewed after the game, he said he's ok.

The size of the video replay areas looked to be the same as last year. What they did was get rid of some of the ads to make the stats area bigger.
