  1. Welcome. You might be our first token Esks fan. Someone needs to drag Lyin' guy and Radio Ryan over and we might have the whole league represented.
  2. HKS Architects who designed Regina's stadium always have renderings identical to the finished product.http://www.hksinc.com This firm has designed NFL venues in Dallas, Indy, & the new Minneapolis stadium. Also if you want to follow the construction of the new Riders stadium check out @YQRstadium The only issue I see is that PCL is building it. I am not sure how they are in Regina but in Manitoba they are slowly gaining a bad rap. Cost over runs and delays. They are over aggressive on safety and often over look the big picture. I work with them often and I like working with them but I am always hearing bad things. I hope this won't be the case. The league doesn't need another delayed stadium opening!! I don't recall any negative issues regarding PCL builds in Regina, they have a very strong reputation here. I think they are building the new Oilers arena too. You probably won't. My only other thought was where they were going to get all the man power from. Likely lots from Alberta and Manitoba with the rest local trades. Going to need a lot of man power though!

  4. maybe they actually got around to reviewing those games and realized they needed to actually call penalties. Or maybe the league doesn't want the Bombers in the playoffs this year for some reason. This year? I think its been a few years
  5. Riders desperately missed Durant today. I have a feeling if Willy is out against Hamilton they will do the same to us. I know we get a week off finally but I just don't feel confident with Brohm behind centre. I have a feeling we get one maybe two more win this year. Hate being the Debbie downer but with out Willy we don't have much. Now 7-8 wins is still way better then last year and we should be happy with the progress. If Willys injury is bad (collarbone or shoulder) they shouldn't try and rush him back in. I'd rather a healthy Willy to start next season over the chance of making it worse. I think BC rushed lulay back too soon and he could be done for ever. Just my opinion.
  6. Soooo every starting QB in the west could be out for a period.......
  7. 79 yards of......brilliance??? there is a new one for Rod Black lol.
  8. 5pm on a Saturday is a shitty time?? I can see 5pm on a tuesday shitty. Lame excuse
  9. Calgary celebrating in the end zone like they are the ones up by 20. Wow. Just get back to the sidelines.
  10. Just flicked this game on. Wtf?!?
  11. Just flicked this game on. Wtf?!?
  12. Why does Edmonton only have like two fans standing after a big play?!?!
  13. Pretty sure the als would be 7-2 if they only played 3 Qs of ball.
  14. Offence is good. Special teams and defence.....not so good. ugh. Why can't we have two of three in the good category?
  15. Or 6-6 at half. Yikes. I think Edmonton is over rated.
  16. Cue Nasty Nate! It's a conspiracy. Or does he already have a 6 page thread on RF?
  17. Ugh it's like one step forward and two back with this team!
  18. The ironing would be delicious. I'd almost like to see it just to see all the headlines/ story lines. It's always nice to have a crisp, clean shirt on but I'm not really sure how that applies here... and I wouldn't strongly advise against tasting the ironing to see how delicious it is... Dude it's a quote from The Simpson's. Never mind that it's one of the most used lines on the internet. God, I hate people...It just bottles the mind that people continually miss references. Yea but at the end of the day, it's really a moo point.. Can we just nip this in the butt? I'd just assume this is one in the same. I really could care less about this topic. Maybe it's just my old-timers disease.
  19. Assholes like Migs could easily come here. Everyone should be lucky he hasn't because he is a hell of a lot worse than me or franc. And if Rider fans (or anyone for that matter) come here to do nothing but troll, they are easily banned. We've already banned a few. Fans who want to come here and have a football discussion are more then welcome. The problem with Migs though, is that he is very sneaky. When he first posts, you don't expect him to be a troll. He tries to lure people into thinking he's a good guy when he really isn't. He's alive and kicking at the official Bomber board, and no one has appeared to realize that he's a troll yet. Everyone at RF and MBB knows what's yet to come there though judged by his past. So kinda like that Nate,Lyle,Morris dude? Everyone seems to love him on RF. But he's just a slithering piece of trash.
  20. $845 isn't really that expensive. Sure you could likely drive out and stay at a cheap hotel for less but what you get for $845 is pretty good. A flight too and from Winnipeg would be around $650-$700 A night at the Westin is around $150-$200 Game ticket around $50 And then transportation would be around $50 if you cabbed it. I agree for basically one night it's kinda expensive but I go to Regina on one of those bus trips and it's $350-$400 and it's only really a day and you have to spend it in Regina!!
  21. Couldn't you find one that was missing just the second quarter?
  22. I don't imagine making the schedule was an easy task this year. They needed to fit in another team. Add an extra bye (or two) for each team plus avoid having games at THF and in Ottawa for the first couple weeks due to construction issues and then of course fit games in at the skydome. It sucks that we didn't get an early bye but it makes for an interesting second half! I am sure by next year they will have an easier time with the schedule.
