Hold that thought til after the game tonight....

Montreal's defence is getting shredded

That was a weird fumble by Edmonton there

What does he mean by win? Win the Grey Cup? 2014 was one game out of the playoffs, if we had anyone other than Etcheverry as DC, I'm sure that team had the talent to make the playoffs.

Goals!

I think this debate has run its course, I'm locking this thread.

Is it common knowledge? Not so sure about that... I've never heard of other teams doing what the Riders are doing. Can you point to anyone outside riderfans.com that has this common knowledge?

Yeah I don't get that. Are the Riders going to stop showing up to games? Boycott the league? I don't see what possible recourse the Riders would have to damage the league.

Kind of a small detail but it seems like people are confused about the 96 number. That is 96 players total, including the legitimate players. 46 on roster, 20 on injured lists, 10 on PR = 76 players. So what they are reporting is 20 players being kept around illegitimately, not 96. Still a huge number but far more believable than 96. I would fine them 10,000 for every player kept illegitimately, plus take away their first round pick next year, and make Chris Jones sit in the dunk tank during the Banjo Bowl pre-game.

I'd be interested to see what other teams are up to... I'm sure nobody's hands are totally clean. I don't think Bo Levi was expecting this big of a reaction.

Big blue and gold thunderstorm rolling into T.O Friday night!! Woo!!

I think the league could use the money. Fine them like a million dollars or whatever.

I wanted Burris to sign here in 2014. If things don't work out this year, I hope the Bombers pursue him again.

They would get behind him in a hurry if Nichols went down. If you think the team would have more confidence in Dom Davis then I'm afraid you're sadly mistaken.

Kris King was the captain!

Nichols is still catching up with everyone that has been playing for 6 weeks. I don't mind him getting the snaps. Don't really see any point to giving reps to Davis, he is the #3. If he ends up playing this year we're out of the playoffs anyways... If Nichols goes down, it's obviously back to Drew Willy, not Davis.

Sounds like the team recognizes this as well. " Here’s what I’m thinking now, though: that fourth quarter wasn’t good enough. It was terrible. I guarantee you that when we look at the film we’re going to see mistakes that I made, that the linebackers made, the whole team. All that has to be fine-tuned if we want to be a playoff team.

They picked up Ivan Brown, who couldn't get on the field on special teams here last year, let alone as a starter, and he was one of their best Canadians last night.

I was only joking. Lots of people on Twitter playing that game though. "Why are the Jets celebrating the Coyotes' past? Shouldn't it be a Thrashers jersey?"

Isn't that the old Arizona jersey?

The only team we have to worry about is Edmonton. Cgy, BC, Tor and Ott are all locks to make the playoffs. Hamilton is likely. Sask is a virtual lock to miss the playoffs and Montreal is pretty damn close. That leaves one spot to be competed for between Edmonton and Winnipeg.

Lol an article quoting GBill on CFL salaries, now I've seen everything

It's Avro Lancaster! He outed himself! I knew it!

Retractable roof would be great for the rare times that it's needed, but the cost might not have gone over too well with some of our good friends who aren't necessarily Bomber fans... http://www.winnipegsun.com/2016/08/02/investors-group-field-price-tag-keeps-growing-and-growing
