How the heck are the Riders with a gibbled up quarterback and no decent backup favoured by 2.5 points??

CFL Pundits are split 50/50 on their prediction.
Bomber and rider boards prediction threads are easily 80%+ in favour of the respective teams board.
Game day weather looks to be cold. If we can establish the run game and minimize turnovers / SSK defense, this one is ours.
ONE MORE SLEEP!
Andrew Harris is going to be in a pivotal role tomorrow, one way or another.

Any games subsequent to a Bomber win tomorrow will seem anti-climactic. Even the Grey Cup game.

These same potential customers chose to live in Saskatchewan, so they are obviously delusional and therefore easy marks.

$600 000 still owed Trestman next year - the Argos either have spare cash floating around or they are going broke fast.
MLSE has buckets of cash.

Your stadium holds 33,000 and you only brought 27,000 to last years game. Which may I correct you was also your first playoff appearance in your new stadium. I absolutely guarantee you the Riders put up more than your pathetic 27,000. Pretty sad from a city who has 800k* people and Regina who has 220k. You guys literally come up with EVERY excuse as to why you didn't have butts in the seats, but frankly, there is no excuse. You guys had a home playoff game for the first time in several years and your turnout what absolutely PATHETIC!
Oooh...is someone having a hissy-fit?

better get a playing cast for Sunday. Hold nothing back!
Just set up an booze IV with a large-bore needle and a catheter with a bag and you are set for the day.

The forecast for gametime in Regina, which ought to be pretty accurate, is for mainly sunny and a high of -9. Looks like a day which will lend itself to the running and short passing game.

No question that the Sessions firing was intended to impede or halt the investigation into Trump's affairs and the affairs of his family. There may be a much larger game afoot here from the Russians. Trump is heavily indebted to the Russian mob and Saudi royal family and he has always placed his welfare above that of others, even his son Don Junior. Trump has probably been a Russian asset since the early 2000's when he was on the verge of his biggest bankruptcy. The banks in North America and Europe would no longer touch him and he was desperate. Enter the Russian mob/big business/government. Eric Margolis, the noted reporter who has been watching the Russian and Asian political scene for some 30 years, maintains that the Russians have been far more successful in penetrating the American and British intelligence and political machinery than the CIA or MI6 ever were in accessing the Russian equivalents.
Russia has succeeded in influencing American foreign policy beyond their wildest dreams, but their real endgame may be to destroy American societal cohesion and set the different factions at each others' throats. Trumps denigration of his intelligence community and discounting of their advice is another step in undermining trust in these institutions while he looks the others way. The prime and recent example of the hither-to respected FBI being ordered "investigate" the allegations against Kavanaugh and then being manipulated so as to produce an exculpatory report on Kavanaugh with them interviewing Kavanaugh, Dr, Ford, Kavanaugh's best friend or either of the other two women who came forward, has to undermine Americans' trust of even the FBI. All this is likely intended to produce exactly what has happened- fatalism on the part of voters that no matter how or if they vote, it produce no positive change. Then, if there is no trust in democracy, all that is needed is for a semi-charismatic leader to step forward with a simplistic "plan" and extravagant promises and voila! we have Germany at the end of the Weimar Republic. America then either becomes a thinly disguised dictatorship or a helpless giant ripe for the picking.

From 3downnation:
Alouettes talking to potential general managers in case they fire Kavis Reed
Posted on November 6, 2018 by Justin Dunk // 0 Comments
Montreal Alouettes president Patrick Boivin refused to discuss the status of anyone in the Als football operations department but that hasn’t kept the organization from having conversations with potential general managers.
Sources say the Alouettes have spoken to multiple people regarding the GM position while Kavis Reed continues to work in the role – orchestrating two trades at the deadline while re-signing quarterbacks Antonio Pipkin, Vernon Adams and Jeff Mathews recently – and Boivin remains mum on his future

When you have an ancient QB, you better be working on the next guy. You should always be working on the next guy because #1 is one hit away from being gone, as Trestman experienced this season.
That's my point with Buono and Hufnagel. When have they not had a guy ready to play on the sideline? Tate falters as a starter and BLM steps in as one of the greatest winning QB's in league history. Trestman isn't in that tier of coach IMO.
That egregious failure had to be more on Popp than Trestman. You cannot make chicken soup out of chicken feathers.

It could still happen sure, but it appears Mr Brock Sunderland is unwilling to pull the trigger and would have to be thrown out by the CEO first before Maas got dragged out by the chain he tied to him.
You may well be right- the next week or two will tell.

Bomber fan from the day I was born, living near Calgary now and cheering on the blue and gold! Hoping for a win this weekend so I can watch them in the western final and hopefully grey cup!
Welcome to this forum which usually, but not always entertaining. You have our sympathies for living in Alberta.

According to Terry Jones of the Edmonton Journal, Mike Reilly told Len Rhodes that he likes playing for Maas, says he's a great coach & that if he wants him to come back then he wants Maas back as well. Seems Rhodes is backtracking on the Arash Madani story that he sent out feelers to every OC in the CFL inquiring about their interest in being the Esks HC.
If the Edmonton Sun has the same degree of credibility and integrity as the Winnipeg Sun and all the other Sun papers, I would not put much stock in this report. Reilly had the same expression as someone who had to clean out a septic tank during the game. Body language is not infallible but its usually pretty darned accurate, and Reilly's looked to express a lot of dissatisfaction.

No real point in further slagging Maas- he is a dead man walking and is probably packing all the while dreading The Phone Call. Can't be fun to be him these days.

Either Mark Twain or Pinball's dad. Not sure which.
Samuel Lenghorn Clemens' non de plume was Mark Twain. He took the name from the calls sounders would make as they threw out measuring weights on lines at the front of Mississippi steamboats to determine channel depth. The channels changed yearly so had to be re-marked every few months.

Andrew Wettenhall roasted here
Also, Mike Sherman seems to not be worried about his job security at all based on this article
https://montrealgazette.com/sports/football/cfl/montreal-alouettes/zurkowsky-alouettes-rookie-coach-sherman-looks-forward-to-next-yeark
This is why I been calling on the CFL Board of Governors to throw him out and put the Als up for sale.
The trouble with stupid people is that they do not realize that they are stupid. I think Sam Clemens said that.

No I have a lot more respect for CFL fans in southern Ontario than I do for Rider fans. It's actually hard to be a fan there so the ones that are fans, those are the true diehards. Rider fans are just annoying band wagon jumpers. Ever notice how there are probably 80000 fans who were there all through the dark times in Saskatchewan? Annoying as **** and they strut around like they're god's gift to the CFL and TSN panders to them so ridiculously much. It's by far the worst thing about the CFL.
But if you take that away from Rider fans, what do they have left? Not much.

I DOUBT IT....You say anything remotely negative or unbiased against the riders...its a full on attack...even if you have supporting stats...news articles...whatever to verify it...you get backlash...totally clueless posts and classless comments..many posters here post who are from opposing teams and there is good back and forth banter but it doesn't get ugly, or confrontational bordering on stupid unless stupid/uncalled-for comments are made first, save for a couple of Bomber site fans...but they largely get it from people here too for their stupidity
It doesn't take many cretins to spoil the atmosphere of any gathering, even if its an online forum. When the bashing becomes ugly, the best members will simply check out or just lurk and everyone loses. Then we have another ourbombers.
It's Official, We're Headed To Regina For The WSF: Show No Mercy On Rider Trolls

With Collaros out of the picture, it looks to come down to the Bomber O-line vs the Rider front 7. I expect the Riders to blitz the heck out of Nichols and no doubt LaPolice has planned for that. Riders look to be most vulnerable up the middle as neither Hurl nor Judge are all-stars.
