I can't figure out if I want the Riders to win before LD. I kinda feel like we're the perfect game for them to get their first but if they won next week maybe the pressure is off and we aren't as worried come LD....

There isn't one thing factual in this post.Not a blizzard but there was snow in nw Calgary and west in higher elevations.It was a light dusting that melted as soon as it hit the ground. Was mostly rain.

There isn't one thing factual in this post.

I'd likely stop watching, if that ever came to pass. If I cared to watch "Best On Best", I'd watch the NFL. I care about Canadiana and want to see Canadians vs Canadians...I honestly wish the ratio required more NIs.

It's never this easy...for anyone. Something will happen to bring Ham back to the pack...

as long as I can continue watching 22 Minutes, Mercer and HNIC with a real Coach's Corner, I don't care what channel it airs on, or who pays for it...

Any guy who wants a Joseph Aboud suit has to be a Ryan Seacrest skinny rake clone & able to run down stairs like Clark Kent looking for a phone booth. ...Or, y'know, just be even a little bit in shape....either way.....

**** everything about the NFL so very very much...

Lol it's called the 6 Game Ir. You can't be on the 6 Game IR for 7 games....

of course... Because I benched him in Fantaseh this week so watch him go for 100yds and a TD...

Firing MOS for Higgins is literally the dumbest thing we, as an organization, could do. Firing MOS for just about anyone would be pretty dumb...

Do we even know how it was "handled" and what even happened?? My first thought was absolutely "Bowman sitting the past couple weeks must have something to do with this".......he's one of Popp's boys, so you gotta wonder. Man oh man, what a gonger......

Ehhh....the gf and I are probably right in the middle of Middle Income people......and we bought a couple pretty easily. Plus driving out from AB. It's expensive, but it's really not Break The Bank expensive...

Hilarious.....................

Well, I've got my tix, and I'm coming for the party. If the Bombers are in it, great...if not, gonna be a great time anyhow!

If this game is as bad as people are saying (for tix) then this'll be the last game Winnipeg gets for a long time.

Fred Reid was fast, no question, but he needed room to make things happen. Charlie made things happen on his own...with or without blocking. The kid was magic. Fred was a beauty, though...wish his career had been longer.

The one vs Montreal around 2004 or 2005 that was our first win of the season...thats another "rare get in lean years" game.

I think there's a crazy combo of people over valuing Calgary and undervaluing us. That's okay, but I'm not inclined to blow as much smoke up their asses.

so Calgary has established starters but we don't.......

Cool! How's your bye week going? Tell us how film study goes in prep for next week!

So, legitimately curious question for everyone expecting this guy to be a superstar: Why couldn't he crack the Stamps starting line up?

If we were able to get Provorov for Buff, straight up, I'd take it......

Rider sympathizer....or Rider fan? Hmmm..... Neither. I just find it comical (and pretty hypocritical) that Bomber fans on this site get so bent about how popular the Riders are nationwide and how boisterous their fans are about their allegiances, and feel they have to shout it down and de-cry it as a "myth". Sucks for them to be 0-7 and be so close in every game, certainly given the injury issues they have had, but I don't feel sorry for them. No one would feel sorry for the Bombers in the same situation. But I feel no overt need to throw it in their faces unless a fan fires the first shot directly at me (and to my face, not over a message board). But I find it sillier that people feel the need to be bothered by how supportive the Rider fans are, both at home and on the road, and the fact that the media comments on it, and the massive need to say "that's a lie!", or "it just gets soooo annoying" when the most ardent Bomber fans do EXACTLY the same thing, like it's OK for us to do it, but a crime for another fan base to. The perception of a strong Rider national fan base is not inaccurate - come to any Banjo Bowl and see how well their fans travel. This is just my opinion, but it smacks of sour grapes and a massive inferiority complex, like it takes away from how good Bomber fans are if we don't get the same props, or if another team gets any credit. And it is so predictable around here, when we do well we can revel in their failure, but when we have a struggling team that we can't puff our chests out about, we revert to the "well they suck too" and "they are in your face about it (like we aren't?). Just funny how childish it seems, and to me, this petty attitude and classlessness DOES reflect badly on our fanbase (and I don't expect anyone to adopt that last line of thinking). I am sure I am overreacting to most, but it is a pet peeve of mine. I don't need to tear down other anonymous people to make me feel better about myself - I don't want to give that kind power to others to determine my life happiness, especially fans of a competing sports team. Anyway, just my observation and opinion, no Rider flag waving intended. You've done this same rant enough times for me to conclude you are a Rider fan in disguise. Everyone watch out for this guy. If you're not with us, you're against us.....it really is that simple. I don't trust Bombers "fans" who aren't rabidly anti-Riders...
