Not defending either guy but.... Gronk does not have any domestic violence on his rap sheet... and in the NFL, the biggest factor is skill... Gronk may be the best (or at least most physically gifted) TE to ever play the game...

I'm just waiting for my "season ticket holder for life" t-shirt! Pretty much the only reason I signed up...

We can still lose this game and win the season series... as long as we lose by 6 or less... so really a loss potentially isn't the end of the world... that being said, a win would just be much simpler!

If we didn't discuss something b/c we are not privy to all the facts... would we ever discuss anything??

I feel like you're missing @Atomic's point a bit here... the league approves one guy and denies another guy the next day while they seemingly have the same (or very similar) rap sheet... why didn't the CFL make a statement on Richardson and why he was allowed to sign a contact... seems fair to question it...

Sounds like Mr Richardson has the "brains" to match his "skill"... http://3downnation.com/2017/09/26/new-riders-rb-trent-richardson-i-would-love-to-go-out-there-and-run-somebody-over/ Asked what he knows about the CFL... "Not much. I know it’s end zone to end zone – 120..." And it sounds like he thinks he gonna walk in a dominate the CFL... "...I know you put a pigskin, a football in my hand I’m ready to run and do what I do best – get in the end zone and probably run over a player or two" I would love to see him run into a wall by the name of Alex Singleton, Bear Woods or Solomon Elimimian and see how many people he thinks he's gonna run over after that...

Yeah, kind of what I was thinking

You beat me to it... I was just going to mention I went to One Great City on the weekend... I very much enjoyed it... I would recommend it for several reasons: 1. All craft beer, brewed in-house... 2. I had the pulled pork sandwich and fries... it was fantastic... didn't try any other food but I'm sure there's other gems on the menu... 3. It's local... you're supporting a Wpg business going there, not some major national or international chain... that's something that's important to me anyways...

Interested to see who "some of its users" will be...

this is a pretty good article... as usual, Trump's comments were not about football, maybe not about racism, and certainly not about politics... it was just another move to massage his ego... (the article is not really about Kaepernick so don't let the title prevent you from clicking) https://www.si.com/nfl/2017/09/25/colin-kaepernick-donald-trump-nfl-anthem-protests-teresa-kaepernick

I hope so... b/c Marshall is a much better back than Richardson... so it would be funny if they got rid of one of their most productive offensive players for a dud... I think you're bang on... he does not plan to be in Sask for a long time... he's trying to win quickly so he can cash in on his next job... Because of that mindset and mostly cuz he works for Sask makes me want to see him fail ever so much...

Great scoop... how did you get Thorpe to admit this to you?!?

I like Nichols and the direction we are going in... but I've been saying for years (even when most others say it's BLM) that Mike Reilly is the best QB in the CFL...

Back to the topic at hand... my take: Offense: Bomber consistently put up more yards and points... Defense: there is no close 2nd to Calgary in the league right now... Special Teams: They're probably better at returning (see Finch)... while we're probably better on coverage... 11 wins vs 9 wins and a 29-10 win suggests Calgary is currently the better team... but hopefully we can get to McMahon on Nov 18 and make a statement...

You should've started with this so we would know your opinion is invalid anyways... We won the turkey legs once... let's just say I'm glad I didn't pay money for it... but I was hungry and it was free... so no real complaints....

Trent Richardson and Vince Young are gonna take the Riders to the cup... book it* *this is not considered a guarantee by Rider fan logic...

I've seen suck before, but Lankford is the suckiest bunch of suck that ever sucked... how's that?

Wade Boggs, is that you??

It's pretty clear there's a league-wide conspiracy against us....

I didn't get a chance to watch that game... but I may have cursed his name when I saw the boxscore! At this very moment, I'm disappointed you were right last week... but when I was watching Harris shredding through the Ottawa defense on his way to the endzone... you better believe I was standing up and cheering!

Loved that hit by Miles... he just grabbed McDuffie and drove him back about 7 or 8 yards... all hustle and strength from those Canadian LBs dominating special teams... Some people were "concerned" about Flanders lining up as a slot back... AFAIC he played exactly the same role as previous, they just listed him at a different spot on the depth chart

excellent prediction... turns out we literally didn't need a pass rush... Lindlay was just that bad...

I would go as far as saying Harris might be the only RB in the league that excels at all three...

I'm starting to wonder if this is a "Bombers-only" penalty...

possibly... we'll never know... though, getting some meaningful starting reps certainly would've helped shed the "bust" label...
