    The nationalized American rule is the one that sticks with me. Zero excuse not to use it. There’s only benefits. 

    I have to add the caveat every single time that I love MOS, so nobody thinks I’m insulting the guy personally. 
    The roster management has in fact been an issue since 2014. Kuale, Hurl, Carmichael, Sticking with Willy until almost being fired, Kelvin McKnight, Chris Matthews when he was crippled and couldn’t do anything. Tavarres whatever that was on the roster for 2 years and didn’t see a meaningful snap. Jake Thomas last year. That’s just off the top of my head.

    Yeah. Personally I’d cut one and bring in one or two new kr guys. They did catch the ball. And only one made a bad mental mistake.
     
    I wouldn’t be surprised if we do a small to medium round of cuts this week. We usually do this to prioritize getting reps for guys who are at the forefront of positional battles and to bring in new guys. 
     
    such a great group of young talented earth movers inside. If neuf isn’t good to go I would’ve started 3 imp ol before that game. Right now Wallace would be more than fine to start. If he keeps it up teams are gonna be kicking them self for passing on him. 
     Yeah Dobson looks a bit more trim and just looked comfortable. Which let him play with that aggression he brought in college. 
     The stadium is gonna be the original pancake house with the next generation of ol we have.

    Who is the color guy on that broadcast?  Is it Mullinder?   
    That guy needs to get cut ASAP,   I'm only half way through watching the game and what he says on air does not represent what is happening on field at all.  The PBP guy is nearly as bad.
    I'm at the part with 52 seconds left in the half where Pipkin runs out of bounds and runs into Jefferson and bounces off of him.   PBP guy says Pipkin was hammered by Jefferson and Mullinder is saying a penalty should be called.   Jefferson didn't lean into him and was standing upright the whole time with Pipkin just scraping by him and falls down on his own.   
    Also Mullinder at this point is extremely minimizing the errors of the Rider players almost making excuses or pretending that things didn't happen (i.e. great play by a Bomber or a big error on the Rider).      I.E.  Harris missing Bane by a mile and instead of saying how bad of a pass it was,  Mullinder talks about how great of a training camp they have had so far together.
    Also every Rider has had a great training camp,   no rookies have made any mistakes,   no veterans need to look over their shoulders,   Pipkin is amazing because he made a single throw.  
    Streveler is a running back only as per Mullinder... he only can run he can't throw,  he is extremely one dimensional. 
    Mullinder is basically singing the Lego Movie - Everything is awesome song. 
    If I were a Riders fan listening on the radio,  I wouldn't be thrilled because you don't actually get any real feedback on who is performing and who is not.

    Skimmed through it.
    Strev can make all the wide throws. Still trucking guys, even looking much leaner than 2019. 
    Barriere needs some work, that was pretty terrible. 
    Terry Wilson seemed like he knew what he was doing, albeit with a lot of jobbers on the field for both teams. 
    All of this granted Bombers didn’t really throw downfield with any QB. 
    On D, #22 McGhee was with the 1’s, was around the ball a lot for better or worse. He had a rough play early where he let KSB pull down a duck in front of him that he should have made a play on. He got in on another breakup to hold the same drive to a FG. 

    Oulette didn’t look like he enjoyed being tackled by #48 Gemmel, he could be a real thumper. 
    Bombers ran a fairly aggressive D for an exhibition game.
    Rivers, Garbutt, LB Tre Thomas, and actually Schmeckel all stood out to me on plays. 
    ST basically nothing. Ol’ Garcia seemed to be in fine form and the punter had a nice TD saving tackle. 
    Godawfully boring game with atrocious commentary. We’re so, so lucky with our radio guys here.

    I agree. I appreciate people who know more about a subject than I do, but I've learned to never put anyone on a pedestal, we're all human at the end of the day.
    We have to put up with each others' faults, limitations and rough edges - they aren't going away - people are who they are.
    The one thing that I have a problem with - is when people pretend to be something they aren't - or claim to have knowledge or understanding that they don't really have.

    most the issues here is because I dont think Osh walks on water and will call out things...every coach I have ever played for..worked with, or known had faults...were far from perfect and most died on the hill due to them eventually...it happens to them all....some people tho can't accept that and see it only as an attack or knowing better...I never once said Osh should be gone, but he does have things that could be addressed....if people take it as I think I knoiw better, or am always right thats their choice, and their right....But I will talk from experience....from still being connected to the game with current and former players/regimes...and people can take it how they want....If i get abrasive and aggressive...well it's to be expected as thats how I played nd was coached...and was brought along not to settle....stand pat...and you had to earn your keep daily...nothing is given
    There's way more that have a great knowledge here....I'd say the best group in the CFL...you would also be surprised who some are...and there is a group that work on the mob mentality here too...which is also fine....and I dont disparage a true hard core fan who defends their squad...unless they start talking out the bumhole...

    from my early take on what just seen...We will be better at QB2....Dline....Linebacker....Oline will be strong as ever....Receivers the same....running attack better....I think our defensive philosophy will be a much more aggressive attackig one than what Hall liked....I feel good from what I saw even from a pared down vanilla package....we put the right guys on the fielD on defense we are gonna have so many options and looks...it could be scary
    Wilson as QB 3 may be a nice guy to develop here....Love his body type for QB up here...coverage team scares me again...but maybe with more of the regulars in their role, and addition of guys like Moses...Gemmel..Pertrishen we may surprise

    It doesn't matter who the coach is for the Riders... They're just dirtbags. What a dumb celebration on the fumble. You'd think they won the Western Final.

    Bombers more than held their own with Streveler just hitting stride before getting sat down.  Starting D was fast and effective.  The rest pretty meh with not a lot to go on due to very poor qb play.
    Sheahan’s normal punting was pretty good… too bad our ST coach was allowed to go rogue all last year.
    For all the talk about a renewed focus on discipline, Riders still look have have d-bag vibe to them.
