Not a fan of Nik Lewis's personality, but I sure loved watching a pot bellied receiver still balling out there. Reminds me of me, and my friends, playing oldtimer beer league hockey when every once in a while us old pot bellied pork rind eaters would use our smarts and beat down some young bucks. Puts a little air in your step after.

The Riders will miss Murphy. Yea...he's a bit over rated but he beats the crap out of O'Daisy at scouting.

He is....and this is a big loss for the Riders. Not only for his scouting but for the amount of GM work he was doing also. Jones, already sliced way too thin, now has to find a way to get the work done that he had Murphy doing.

I guess the Argos are in the business of flying people to town, interviewing them, probably wining and dining them just for shits and giggles. Who knew?

BC could only hope their FA is as good as the speculation. Reilly, Bighill, Loffler, Chungh....they apparently have the inside track on everyone.

Same argument they've been making all year about Collaros. "If he ever catches the lightning in the bottle that has shown up 3 times in the last 3 years he is unstoppable". It's a ridiculously stupid argument to make. They are suggesting that because he played on good game against a disinterested Calgary team a month ago that he is suddenly a good QB. The guy was the worst starter in the CFL this year.... We didn't win because Collaros wasn't playing, we won because our OL and Andrew Harris rammed it up their poop shoots the entire 2nd half. Whether it be Bridge or Collaros you have to have the ball to win. Our offence ran the table in the 2nd half and gave almost no opportunity to their offence.

Been there twice. Feels like you're sitting a million miles away in the stands compared to IGF. Just saps the energy imo. Concessions are much better at Mosaic, but IGF is a MUCH better venue to watch a football game. Only problem with Mosaic is they don't have any good beer and you feel like you're watching through binos from the parking lot. Seats are very narrow too. They also have similar rapid transit problems to IGF.

Yea...but it also sounds like it's not that serious. I would bet he will play.

Ok...so at this point it's just Wyman tweeting heresay then.

Who saw him in a walking boot?

Don't even bother looking at them. What those stats don't tell is how many times there was a 6 point difference between 1st and 4th. The overwhelming majority of these statistics were compiled when the third place team was sub.500 and there were juggernauts like the Eskimos, Bombers,and Alouettes over the past 40 years. The playing field is wide open over the past few years in comparison since the SMS came in.

You are not beloved over there? Say it isn't so. All they wanna do is talk football. You didn't break forum rule number 3 and suggest that the Riders are not the ultimate sports franchise in the history of modern sport did you?

Your buddy is part of the problem now too.

What's your point? The Riders are bringing Lancaster in with their time machine?

The advantage to the Riders LBer corps because they rotate more mediocre players through during the game? It makes zero sense. Let's just discount MOP level play from Bighill, all star level play from Santos Knox and give the edge to a Rider LBer crew anchored by Sam Hurl with a couple of hobos beside him. Literally the stupidest thing I have read and just kills the credibility of an otherwise good break down. Bombers LBer crew is vastly superior to the Riders....it isn't even comparable. I am gobsmacked that a professional CFL journalist would even think they were comparable let alone superior to ours.

I agree. However, it is unfortunate that they didn't move the Riders to Saskatoon and get it out of the butt hole that is Regina. Saskatoon is an infinitely nicer city.

Thank you for the glory hole report. Was he out there throwing darts?

Are you related to the Blacksmith's?

With the exception of Zac Collaros post 2015 of course.

They ban you for respectfully talking football, even though your opinion was unpopular and you were semi trolling at times, but keep a knob like Gbill who is schizo and throws a tantrum anytime anyone disagrees with him. Makes no sense.

I was trim. Deal with it. lol Of course I was overweight at 370, but I did have a lot of muscle mass. It wasn't all flab. It was more like a powerlifter 370 physique. I was an active 370 lber.

I hear ya. When I was in my 20's I was 6'6" and around 245 lbs. In my 30's I got as high as 370lbs although it was a fairly trim 370 I still got lots of stares and commentary from people. "Hide the buffet" and such comments were meant to be good natured ribbing from friends but it kind of sucked. The last few years I have been exercising and lifting weights a lot more and have trimmed down to a reasonable 260 lbs. I could probably get lower but I do not overly watch my diet so this is probably as good as it gets. I know the feeling of being overweight, how easy it can happen, and how tough it is to lose excess weight. It's not a joke for those that know this.

Put Gbill, PJ, and Aards on this board and see what would happen to it.

Not everyone....but there are a few.

Not all of them...but that was a doozy.
