Inside the CFL: Riders need to get rid of Jones

Over how many seasons?

Rod Petersen is an absolute joke. The guy is nothing more than a Rider lackey that spews nothing but gang green garbage. Ive never seen a "journalist", and i use that term loosely, so biased and one-sided in my life. I cant believe he is taken seriously and that sports shows continue to interview him(H&L had him on this afternoon).  I wish they would stop. He's nothing more than a delusional Rider fan with a blog. I remember almost choking on my breakfast when i read before the season that he predicted the Riders to win the West with a 12-6 record . I also remember BLM and Petersen having a twitter war after BLM called him out on his laughable homer prediction. Time and time again he continues to make a fool of himself every time he opens his mouth.

I'm partial to the Irvin Grey Birch Tree ...

Chungh had a rough night, he was man handled by Sewell and tunrstiled by Willis.
Willy doesn't scare anyone with his deep throws, they are terribly inaccurate.
 

400,000 reasons for the leash to be very long.

I don't think Nichols is the answer. But I don't see the harm in putting him in for a series or 2

You need a cable subscription to access the TSN streaming. You can't even pay just separately for TSN or just their streaming. Otherwise I'd have a much smaller cable bill, it's the only thing keeping me from cutting the cord completely.

I know most people won't because of the on-field performance, but there's a lot to be taken from that article. The main thing is that while for the moment it's easy to argue the decisions that are being made, the process behind those decisions is a good one. Players want to be here - now we just have to improve on choosing the ones we want here. The morale inside the office, the locker room, the entirety of the stadium ... it's as high as it's been for a long time and that's 100% because of the culture Miller, Walters and O'Shea have instilled. People like going to work while they're here and that matters.
Now just get the on-field stuff right. 

I try and spend my sporting dollars on the Bombers vs. the Jets just because the Bombers need it far more than the Jets do. 

My guess is that he works out for a few NFL teams, and if there are no takers he'll go on the CFL road show tour and sign with whoever pays him the most. I'd love to have him back as a Bomber, but I doubt it will happen.

Walters hasn't been like Taman today or any other time. While he made big moves today they were moves made to fill holes. And knows there is more work to be done. If he were Taman we wouldn't have any draft picks at all. Walter does have to do better in the draft though.
What Chris Jones has done in Sask reminds me of what Kelly did here gutted nearly all areas of the team, even parts that are not broken. Funny thing about the rider forum posts is they are talking about picking up some big names like Liang, Capicotti, and Grymes. Lol

They lost out on a couple big names and are lacking their wounds. If they had landed Laurent at 250k I wonder if that would have been Tamanesque 

And no reports of huge signing bonuses and deferred payments either which were Taman's trademarks.

I feel sorry for anyone who tuned out at half time that was a special teams gem by the Bombers.

Wow another officiating classic

Stay classy rider fans. Cheering their player after being kicked out for the worst head tackle I've seen in years. Glad they just got scored on.

I've seen so many mullets today, feels like I'm back in 1985.

I can't here it here, but I know what you're talking about. It sounds like someone has an electronic sound maker with random police sirens etc. It's the most annoying thing in the cfl, second being the Montreal faire de bruire make some noise chant.

Of course the riders are Canada's team, haven't you ever talked to a rider fan before? I'm at the game, it's awfully quiet here. This dump makes Canad inns look like a palace!

listening to radio 620, (from the football capital of Canada as they called it) they said, riders win tonight, their right back in it. course their right.
 
 
didn't realize Roughriders are "Canada's Team"  

Yeah, I tried asking if the meet and greet would be open to the general public. I was told the next day the meet and greet had to be removed from the itinerary, after that it was only the game and the mall LOL.
