Not sure but I like it! Keep em coming Jonsie

We have had some terrible leadership here in the last 20 years. Burke, Daley, and Reinbold were all terrible. Kelly, and Berry were mediocre. Richie was good, and the jury is still out on O'Sheas legacy although I feel good about him as our head coach.

Toronto is a very diverse city. A lot of second generation immigrants so they have no root to the CFL. I do agree Toronto is a huge bandwagon city though, because how big around the world MLB and NBA is it's easy for them to get big crowds, but they don't truly care about the product.

I don't think it's just Calgary. I think it's every major CFL city. When the global scale for the NFL is so huge and fantasy football is popular for the 18-35 range it gets people really engaged into the game. I'm 26 and I can say I'm easily the biggest Bomber fan in our group of friends who are all huge sports people.

Mason Nesbitt - Just talked to @CowboyAthletics and @GopherFootball product Drew Wolitarsky. He's excited to join CFL Winnipeg Blue Bombers in about a week.

I'm going to be completely honest. I thought Nichols was a little off last night. Especially early in the game, but to his credit he played an amazing stretch where they scored on SIX STRAIGHT possessions. He turned a rough start into one of his overall games of his career. ( career high 4 TD's) the thing I see out of Nichols is that once he gets into grove with his receiving core I think he's going to have an outstanding season and prove a lot of critics wrong. Heck I think he strives off of it.

If Saskatchewan would have out played us in OT they would have won the football game.

18-9 to be exact. More importantly.. 10-3 as a starter. The fact that we're arguing that he could have had 5,6 touchdowns last night makes me realize how much stability we have at the QB position.

1. Justin Medlock- low key our most valuable player last season. 5/5 field goals tonight, 4/4 on the extra point. The guy is worth every penny were paying him. 2. Weston Dressler- 6 catches for 124 yards and 2 TD's. Too small to be a reciever in Jones's offense though 3. Matt Nichols- 331 yards and 4 TD's. Can't ask for much more productive from the QB position, although the scary thing is he definitely could have had 5 or 6. Missed a few throws tonight. HM: Hurl, Randle, Adams, Alexander, Carmichael

You mean 17 points in the first quarter right?

900k to be a "good guy in the locker"

Morrissey - TroubaEnstrom - ByfuglienKulikov - Myers I like our D core heading into next season. I also like the signing of Mason. Two years of steady goaltending, and hopefully Hellebuyck can steal the job from him.

One thing worth noting.. Damn does Jennings fumble the ball a lot.

i know we're joking over here, that will be a valid excuse over on RF that's the funny thing.

Two good quarterbacks, with two good receiving cores.

I didn't think so either.

So why are the Stampederes the benefactors of every call week in and week out?

Neither team wants to be winless going into week three. Should be a good football game.

The funny thing is this guys behaviour is typical that of a Rider Fan on their board. Completely arrogant about their shitty football team.

Yeah I see a balanced attack. I think Flanders gets some carries once we get a healthy lead. We don't need Harris hurt.

4 Grey Cups in a century and Rider fans act like they're the messiah of pro football..

32 years old. Canadian.. And 24 sacks in the past two seasons. That's a weird example.

Well they only lost by 1 point to the second worst team in the league. For a team that hasn't won too many games in the past two and a half years moral victories are something that should be considered an accomplishment in Riderville.

Hate to burst your bubble but those are all terrible options and Jones/Murphy should be embarrassed by your Canadian content.

My prediction for Saturday's contest.. Nichols throws for 300 yards with 3 TD's and no turn overs. Harris runs for just shy of a 100 yards, Bombers win by 20 plus points, and Rider fans implode until next half way through next week where they still insist they have a capable roster, and Jones is the greatest thing since sliced bread.
