You couldn't find a smaller font eh?

I love this because: Replace Bombers with Riders and Westerman with Durant, and you've got the most stereotypical Rider fan post ever!

It's all about the regionality....Manitoba vs Saskatchewan, etc.....that is EVERYTHING that matters to me in sports...

seriously dude...that's incredible. I'm jealous!

those are the worst people on the planet....my gf has been trained from Day 1 and learned VERY quickly.

If I'm going to a live sporting event -- any event -- I'm there to watch the game, period....

While I want the league to be strong, I'm also sick of us being responsible for bailing out these Eastern teams (plus BC) because they don't have enough fans to make a go unless they're winning all the time. Toronto especially....just makes me sick how much has been done to prop them up over the years.

You could not pay me enough to sit through an entire NFL game. I would be more likely to sit through a soccer game, if it featured a Team Canada of some sort...

Let's go back to having non-GIF thread for the adults, please...

lol @ using "the membership at Riderfans.com" as an argument in favour of knowledgeable Riders fans.....

The way I look at it, if you care about the long term health of the team, this game has a ton of meaning. Knowing that the US Scouts have finally been doing some good work (questionable the last couple years) and the CIS drafting is making a mark has a lot of meaning to me...

Funny thing, I was just thinking back about 5 years......remember when EVERY spring we'd go "Is this the year Montreal takes a major fall-off??" and they never did. Then *BAM*.....they didn't just blow a tire, but the whole engine has seized up on the side of the highway. That team is a wreck right now...

HYPE HYPE HYPE!!! EXPLOSIONS!! HYPE HYPE HYPE!!!!!!

Cameron is a CFL HOFer (the only punter in there?), a Grey Cup MOC, and universally known as the greatest wind punter of all time. He's worthy.

You beat me to it -- 90% of Sask "fans" don't have a hot clue who anyone in management is. They see the team lose and go "FIRE EVERYONE!!!" and that's about it. Again, it's *mostly* passive fans over there...

I hope they do and we dump off on every play...

Effort will be the biggest thing to look for. Schemes and things will be vanilla and there's bound to be a lack of precision overall, but there's no excuse for lack of effort. Balls out every play..

He'll never throw his players under the bus in public and it's possibly his best trait as a HC.

I'm excited for Bob Irving's pre-game show, a glass of whisky after work, and the MBB chat room....

that's definitely my concern. As soon as I heard him say that he's comparable to Ovechkin and Matthews comparable to Toews, I nearly started to cry...

Chris Greaves was our LG until traded...

I'm at the point now where I want Macho Harris to be an all star for us just so I can laugh for hours on end at the people that frequent this board.

2 things: 1) They had to overpay Penner to try and hit the cap floor and 2) I disagree they're desperate...the right people are in place now, and it's growing properly...
