This quote is actually amazing accurate... the masses in the rectangle are foolishly optimistic about their sad sack team... while the "10 or 15 people" AKA 8 other fan bases, can see the team is a mess

https://www.riderville.com/2023/02/27/remodelled-roughriders-adhering-to-proven-formula/ Well this is amazing... I'm pretty sure this is written 100% unironically... but it's so absurd, it's hard to tell... anyways, if you want a laugh today, give this a read

What this says to me about Bailey... is it's not about money... it's never been about money... he wants to play football and he wants to play here because he loves the Bombers organization... I suspect he got some things already lined up for his post-playing career... and he'd rather enjoy playing football than have an extra 50 or 60k in his bank account... as other have echoed... absolutely love that guy and hope nothing but the best for him

I doubt that happens... yes they have huge question marks on offense... but their defense is probably good enough to win the sad sack east

a platoon of Kelly and Evans would probably make the most sense for Tor... Kelly is likely already cheap and Evans (assuming he is released) shouldn't be too expensive either.

I'm kind of trying to figure out what point you're trying to make here... literally not one single person has said Leigghio is perfect and no improvement is required... yet that's the premise you are arguing on... I think we're almost all in agreement that we need to see improvement from him next season and most of us would like to see competition in camp.

Not necessarily a rookie if the team thinks Ricky Walker is ready to go

Sayles is a good player... and I'm disappointed to see him go... but at that cost... I have the same feelings as I had towards Dejarlais... good for him to get paid, but I'm glad we didn't sign him for that money

I'm not sure O'Shea would play those types of games... he's not he coach he's become by not being honest... the best player will start

especially when you consider it took him 4 or 5 games to "figure it out"... and he still reached 1000 yards... he could be in for a special year

Lol at a riderfan troll coming here trying to talk trash… without knowing the details of Lawler’s contract… then pretending to be a fan of another team and not even knowing that teams org structure… 🤣

For me (not that my opinion matters) 250K for a receiver is as high as I'd like to go... and only for a certain few players... Lawler being one of them... I'll be happy if we can get him for 3 years, 750K.... but I trust Walters to do what's best for the team In this scenario... and if Schoen can replicate his 2022 numbers... then we're probably looking at 500+ for two receivers...

just wait til they get electricity!

I'm really pissed off that Walters re-signed Collaros, Bryant, Jeffcoat, Demski, the entire secondary, etc.... how is the team supposed to compete with garbage like this??

not to mention feeing up some money to sign another guy... Mr. Adam Bighill I'd like to see Bailey and Sayles back... but at this point, after getting Darby and Demski done... any other re-signing is just gravy

Yeah, I agree... there were too many... the two you mentioned, the 2nd and 20, the two fourth quarter INTs, the PAT miss... way too many mistakes to win the big game... and to think... you change just ONE of those plays... and the game outcome might've been different

And we couldn't re-sign another all-star guard... who we adequately replaced last season.... this team is going to ****, wake up Kyle!!!

Don't want top rehash the grey cup too much... but the final kick is not the play that bothers me... I keep thinking about having Tor at 2nd and 20 at a critical juncture of the game (5:56 left to play, Bombers up by 6)... and allowing them to so easily pick up the first down... that's the play that haunts me

you pretty much nailed it with these last two statements... Was he a great and influential hockey player? Absolutely!.... Was he a great human being? Not even close

I turned this game on at the absolute best time... turned the TV on a few mins into the third and my first thought was "are we seriously going to get shut out, at home, by another bad team".... then about ten seconds later Morrissey scored. Had I watched the first two periods... I might've turned it off at that point.

I'm thinking it's the other way around... Eli was likely brought back to start... but I'm not going to pretend I'm anything of an O-line expert

Seeing Desjarlais sign with Ottawa originally gave me sad feelings... but then I thought about the quality of interior linemen we currently have (Neufeld, Dobson, Eli, Gray) and it made me feel better... then seeing his salary... my thoughts have now changed to good for him, happy he got his payday... and I'm glad we passed on that amount.

Now THAT would be huge pick up for the Als... Ball make Rod look impartial....

Good for Bo and the cats... if Bo is anywhere near is old self... Hammy will be a major threat in the east... of course, if Bo is done... so are the cats
