It's bye week in riderville now.. i get the feeling that the story lawless was going on about a week or so ago, it may happen this week, as early as tomorrow even. Could see a coaching change in riderville

Hope Jhomo dresses and plays, would like to see him out there at times instead of the 2 cdn receivers... brings some much needed speed also to the lineup.. But yup Greaves and Gordon seem like the likely scratches... Maybe LittleJohn tho and Greaves, tough call really... Don't like this starting 8 Canadians when we don't have to thing. Jhomo dressing gives us the option to go 4 import receivers at times, i like that or maybe we see stoudemire in on some O plays but i'd doubt it for some reason.

Smith looks ok outside of the pocket but in it he looks lost and confused. When chaos happens and the play breaks down, he looks good but he does very little from the pocket.

I went on twitter after the game for a bit, while i was in the bathroom and #riders was trending so i thought i'd check it out... It was kind of sad to read some of the fans thoughts, the same stuff they are saying about Smith is the same stuff they were saying about Sunseri last season, future star in the league.. I also understand fans like to blame refs after losses and occasionally i'll do it too but... some of the tweets about the refs last night were insane.. sorry but offside is offside really, holding is holding, illegal blocks are illegal blocks... The sad part tho, it's the vets that are the ones getting all the penalties on every other play and 99 percent of those penalties are legit... maybe 1 or 2 out of the 22 they had were iffy but... 99 percent of them are called in every game. 0-7 looks good on that fan base tho, it really does... got people jumping off already but then you got some pretty delusional ones who say they will still finish 11-7. As for Smith, what i see is a guy who is similar to Marve, I see a guy who doesn't do much from the pocket but when he gets outside of the pocket and chaos happens, he looks good, i see a guy with not a good throwing motion (marve has a nice throwing motion tho), i see a guy who isn't good at making decisions out there, people can go on and on and on about their D but.. that pick 6 killed the riders really. Smith? I don't see it, i see a guy who looks confused and lost in the pocket and i think in order to be successful in the CFL as a QB, you need to be able to do things in the pocket and so far from what i've seen from Smith, he just can't do it.

I've seen games in 5 different stadiums in my life time... 2 in the US, Metrodome and Ford Field.. Gotta say Ford Field was quite amazing... In the CFL, I've seen games at IGF, Canad Inns lol and Commonwealth.. Seen a baseball game at SkyDome years upon years ago... many many years ago now... If i had to rank them... Ford Field is number 1 by a long shot, then i'd put IGF, then Metrodome, Then Skydome and then Canad Inns. So to me, Canad Inns looks similar to Mosaic so it would have to be on the bottom.

Just one... Darian Durants mom is so hairy that Darian almost died of rugburn when he was born.

Why do birds fly over mosaic stadium upside down? Because there is nothing worth crapping on. Whats the difference between rider fans and a baby? The baby stops whining after a while. Whats the difference between rider fans and a carp? One is a scum sucking bottom feeder and the other is a fish.

They have beat Montreal twice and BC. 2 teams we have beat also. Redblacks are improved but they aren't exactly grey cup contenders.

Kane hired a lawyer so you know it's legit

Debut of Michael Sam.

Gibson has muscle tightness according to the baumer

Sounds like it.... But seriously if he did rape this girl.... I hope he goes to jail.

Ivan brown dresses and Newman is out so basically Littlejohn takes Newman's spot. Brown comes in as does Johnson.

Nothing good ever happens in the buffalo area for kane

If this was Evander and not Patrick who Is known to be quite the ****** I bet Evander wouldn't be getting the benefit of doubt. Rape isn't funny so I hope he didn't do it but wouldn't surprise me one bit if he did

Because Malaysia has been known to jump the gun so to speak

You could move Carolina to the central. Tennessee and Carolina have a great rivalry in college football and basketball so with that in mind... LA SJ Anaheim Vegas Arizona Edmonton Vancouver Calgary Chicago St Louis Minnesota Dallas Nashville Carolina Winnipeg Colorado Toronto Montreal Ottawa Qcity bos buff Detroit Tampa NYR nyi NJ Philly Pitt Washington Columbus Florida I suppose Florida or Tampa in the Metropolitan division and the other with Toronto Or the other option is QC in the Met and both Florida teams with Toronto

Carolina could move in to the central division. Tennessee and Carolina have a long rivalry in college football and basketball so moving the canes to the central with the Preds might be an idea

Malaysia says one thing. Paris says the other. It's interesting but nothing is for sure just yet. Makes you wonder why Malaysia says there's no doubt but the ppl investigating it says there is some doubt.

You need to re-watch the entire game as you're analysis is off by quite a bit. The Ti-Cats were by far the superior team on both O and D through most of the game. The Argos did look good in garbage time though, I'll give them that. If the Bombers can beat the Ti-Cats this week I'll be both surprised and impressed. The game stats say otherwise

Tyler is on the 6 game isn't he? We play Sunday. Bryant will be good to go.

Let's go Darvin Adams

Regarding the grey cup drought... yeah it would be nice to win it but... what would be nicer, is to win it one year and then still be good the next year and so on and so on. Taman might have got them a grey cup but.... at what expense really? They will be moving in to a new stadium soon, i would think they would like it if that team was good but it sounds like they will be going in to rebuild mode. IMO, rebuilding in the CFL isn't that difficult however the part that gets tricky is trying to rebuild your canadian content, that doesn't happen in a season or 2 as we have seen here, it happens over time, Riders are dangerously close to not being able to even start 7 Nationals, they are gonna be in tough for a few years i think and this is the problem with Taman really... sacrifice the future to win now, it's nice and all but when you get to the now, what do you have? not much really. Grey Cup win a couple seasons ago? awesome but... that was a couple seasons ago now. The Blue Jay comparison don't work really cuz outside of Price, the guys the Blue Jays have picked up are under contract for several more years...

Also Veltung adds some much needed speed. The guy is a burner for sure. Bombers seem to be lacking in the team speed department and Veltung over JFG or Bastien or whichever CDN he would replace definitely adds more speed out there.
