Booch

tho not super old...as was just a teeanager in 84/88....but this squad is the best all around and dominant that I have seen....and the bond they have, and how they are just a perfect group is very odd...and not the norm...people talk about tight rooms, culture a lot...a lot of times it's more lip service than actuality, but this is realllllly different....from being in many a room, knowing past and present players....this is truly someting out of the norm, and so huge.....factor in the talent on top of it.....it's something to behold U can bring it to the bank that we will have guys stray here for less next yr....Willie..Biggie...Stanley and a couple othwers have set the standard and the bar for this.....pay me whats fair.....and they will pay u back with cups and rings saw a cool tweet...12th cup...on the 12th day...of the 12th month...we were destined to win this...so....winning the 13th in the house of the "13th man"....book it!

yeah...that team as it is now has just had the window slammed shut on it....sucks for the fanbase, as we were just there, but to see mouthpiece Lawrence....whiny quitter Banks and dirty Dylan Wynn miss their shot....was better than actually winning it almost Culture here, the brotherhood...obviously the winning helps.....but also the way players and their families are treated here, the professional environment that many a layer likens to how the NFL does business, is what will keep guys here, and buddies of players on other teams inquiring, and wanting to be here....truth to it all...if there is a guy we are targeting in free agency, and it works fiscally for our structure...u can bet that we land them.....before...not so much unless we wayyyy over payed

nope...these guys are tight...and will be talking....i cant see anyone we want to retain bolting to another CFL team....our only significant losses should be due to NFL and or retirement...but I truly don't see any retirements.....they all want one more run, and nobody who is of later age who may consider it won't hinder us performance wise next year....win or lose tho next yr, I can see a couple walking away

Bryant I am certain will be back....Even in his talk with Bauming he alluded to it if you listen closely Jeffcoat NFL window is done...and he won't leave here...we will work it out, These guys wanna be a dynasty, and I truly believe they will sacrifice to make it happen Biggie isn't retiring, and I highly doubt Harris is....He's on the cusp of 10 000 yards so no way he hangs them up...Maybe he takes a bit of hometown discount to keep the team together Collaros....it wouldnt shock to see him walk away on top...but I think he has a big fire in him still, and is truly happy playing again.,.U see it in him, so I see him back Lawler may get a look, but he also has already, and isnt super young anymore and there are tons of guys like him down south and in the draft every year....Bailey is a lifer here Alford I think may be the one to get a sniff...hope not....but he' earned it....Rose will be back....BA...Hopefully Darby...Mike jones and Nichols I am sure, and Mercy could be back at sam...so Darby and his versatility could be back at corner or half I think we will be able to retain all the guys we want...and then some

Bailey...Lawler..Mike Jones..Eli...Grant...Hallet...Brady...a whole group of em got here at perfect time...same with the lil mexican DB.... and that 30k in extra end of yr playoff cash will be a big help and equalizer to bring lotta guys back...If someone outbids us and offers 10..20..25k more to leave....I bet they wont..I think these guys wanna stay together regardless and will take fair pay to stay anyway....many did this yr

exactly.....also Edam and Purifoy could be tossed away.....and Oline...man to fix it fast will cost huge bucks, and rob you elsewhere....and even the inhouse guys now to groom don't look to be all-star calibre.....512K hanging around the Faj's neck hurts them too....I also think head coach and his inability to reign in that team hurts them...tho a better locker room could fix that to a degree...they need a lot of help at reviever too...I don't think Williams is an answer there...guys a knob and not a locke room guy...or character one for that matter...Powell too should be moved on from....and a revamp of linebackers....lotta work needed there to turn them around as legit contender....Calgary next year is gonna be a tougher team, as I am sure the esks will be too yeah...that stadium is bare bones generic cheapie....noting about it visually screams high end or even professional....wide open grandstands like that sitting out in open on the shores of a huge lake....dumb

yeah...but he still gets a cup win and a ring...big part of the team...never said he was there

relying on 50/50 ball success as your offence being successful is just bad anyway....he can't do much past 12-15 yards, and at 30 next year....it won't improve.....they definitely have blinders on there seeing Faj as the "guy" If they were smart they would go all in on Masoli next year...he needs a change now from the Hammer and he could do more there than the Faj yup....could be our Medlock 2.0....and he seems to be happy here....and having him do both, gives us that extra roster player...can allow us to have Grey and Eli dressed everygame....

yeah....I tink we kept to the script...the O-line in the 4th buckled down....and was wearing out the Ticat defense...they hung in there way longer than I expected, but I knew we would grind them down....same with pass protection..Zack had a good pocket all 4th

well....maybe they can cross over.....and come outta the east to meet us as the Home team...In their dressing room at IG West...and have us complete the full compliment of first in our other stadium.......First Grey Cup win there...with Suitor having to call it....that would be the best 3peat scenario....ever!

MAYBE....JUST maybe....he is not back next year...one can dream right?....If...and big if the Rider's make it to game....the thought of him calling it makes me barf...

looking at it....4th quarter...down by 12...Zack goes 9 of 13...over 100 yards.....touchdown....then again in O.T plus the 2 point convert.....he earned that MOP in my opinion....he made the plays when it mattered most and in the clutch

yup...all-time classic this one was....had everything you want in a CFL game

Yup....Rose...one of best Grey Cup plays ever....to do that, and loft it to wilson...amazing....almost unbelievable...right there he earned his pro-rated salary....that and his 3rd down stuff

Nichols basically made 2 plays to save the game....all our unsung guys came up big...Wilson...Darby....Bailey...Stove and Fatboi...Kongbo was strong all night...our cover teams....was a true team win...through and through...I also think we missed Eli in the run game as well....and It showed That one catch by Bailey....keeping it off the turf....wonder why not mentioned more...that was a amazing grab in a critical time....

Happy for Sergio....maybe he finally has found his home....hope so....plus he can punt as well....

Yup...Rose intentionally did that....what a smart play....

CORRECTION....5 cups....forgot about 84....so now more than any rider fan...ever! hahaha

Guys like Bailey...Kongbo..Lawler...Desjarlais...Hallet...Oliveira...Eli...this all they know....2 yrs...2 cups...hahaha....what a time to get here for them

I've now seen and been alive for 4 now...and counting....just as many as the Rider's 104 yr history...I'll take that hahaha.....#1990

yup...they need a dual guy.....plain and simple.....and I have no worries about Osh leaving for that...he is not gonna desert his team...not how he wired...plus...who would leave this?....u would have to be crazy same with our free agents...I have no off-season worries at all....not a single one, other than NFL possible opportunities... I just hope they deem BA as too old now.....if he was doing this going into the 2019 season he would have been gonzo ahh....see...there u go...knew it

Evans was already hurt in EF on his TD run...go watch the head to head shot he took from Butler...and then he popped into the endzone...I actually all week was wondering if he would play to be honest...U can see the impact, and his reaction...then after was seen grabbing back of his neck....just like in the Grey Cup....he also had those athletic strips on his neck at start of game if u look....he re-injured it on that sack falling to ground....almost thinking he shouldn't even have been cleared to play as he clearly had a neck injury he was dealing with...seen that impact/injury happen many times in my life...go re-watch EF and u will see exactly what I am talking about, and when it happned

that right there should be the signsal he needs to go...he has run his course on TSN anyway...time for new blood....

true statement of team and why we win, and was how we were built....Cats focused om the Jeff's.....our guys in middle stepped up...even tho the Jeff's were still impactfull Take away run, and Demski....no problem....Bailey and Adams with key grabs, and Woli clutch as always when utilized Wilson, as like last playoffs...just makes solid big assed plays....lets Biggie do his thing.....Darby...solid....best acquisition last year....I thought he could have had some MOP consideration in Grey Cup...guy is flat out good, and is exactly the lockeroom/culture guy this team seeks.... Our rookie DB's....game changers, reason why we won today...Alfrod is a stud and took a lot of limelight away from Nichols, but he has been flat out best in league at his spot all yr...without him..we don't win the cup....Rose....thank you Kyle for having the $$ for his possible return...his play to get ball to Wilson was epic...one of all-time great Grey Cup plays Collaros...what can you say...kept his wits about him when he messed up and odds seemed stacked against us...didnt show any weakness went about business and got job done when it was crunch time....dude just wins....many others would have wilted and imploded...hello CFaj Adams was clutch...just like in 2019 playoffs...thats why he here, and Zack alluded to that too...just made the big plays...kept boys calm....irritated the Cats...love me some Adams any big game....And Bailey....who wouldn't want a a guy like that on the squad....really evolved this year....and dude is clutch..good...and all about team...Cats focused on our stud Lawler...Bailey and others picked up the slack Harris....what can u say....last part of 4th...in O.T....he was huge....key to the comeback success Man...just love this squad....wanna see em all back to be honest...sadly tho...some wont be

Yup...enjoy it all...we all know howfast and long it can dissapear for I think we have a good chance of retaining the core players...also jeffcoat is 31 this Christmas...his NFL window is closed Guys wannabe here...and some will make some concessions I am sure to stay...get that 3 peat...playoff money which is almost a lock can easily offset any offers that are 15 to 30k higher elsewhere...
