    Clements was a natural introvert , intellectual...maybe a little dour. Lots of fans mistook it for not caring so when things went bad and Clements said little or nothing fans got snarly.

    Nary a defender when he was run out of here in 1983.

    Yeah Clements was quiet. But I don't remember fans getting snarly when he said nothing. (I just forgot, I guess.)All I remember is him dissecting defenses. Yes, we should have beaten T.O. in 1987, but they had a good defense too. It was Brock who was run out of here in '83...Clements retired before the '88 season.  Fans and media called him "Tom Terrific". Anyways...carry on...

    Riders need a healthy Fajardo, they can't win a ground and pound against us. "Just stop the run" was the mantra more than one of them said when Strev was the QB. It's a little more complex than that defensively for them now. 

    Right. And we have a dual threat Collaros pass - Streveler run to boot.

    Riders need a healthy Fajardo. Last year I went to WSF and a number of Rider fans told me before the game they were going to lose. They might be in tough again, QB-wise.

    Have to think Dave D will be assisting his bro in any way he can with preparing for the Bombers.  Not sure how much he knows that Craig wouldn't figure out himself but the path might be a bit easier with direct communication.  
     

    I assume you're half-joking. I doubt Craig will lean on Dave for any info...I think he'll just watch the tape.

    But Craig was asked who he'd rather face- Calgary or Winnipeg - he said he was cheering for his brother. Well, you got the Bombers!!

  4. The Stamps are a cocky team and take after their QB and coach...but after what I saw from them last game in Winnipeg running up our stairwell...reminded me of that guy in the NFL who ran to the Cowboys star at midfield and just got plowed over - that's what should have happened to those guys - if Walby was still playing he would have knocked the receiver on his can so quick... anyways I hate Calgary and would love to kick the crap out of them on Sunday!

    I know the Harris snubbing has been beaten to death, but what is Simone Lawrence doing on there. He served a suspension and fined for a nasty headshot. Is that the type of player we call outstanding? That to me is the opposite of outstanding and negates anything positive he does on the field.  So play as dirty as you like, but be extra careful what you ingest!

    Yes, the hypocrisy is stunning!

    .. We looking 100 plus bucks for 3 ppl plus food etc. So lets say 200 bucks as a rough estimate. Or watch at home for free pretty much. This is the problem. Pro sports are actually pricing out famillies. Me GF and our5 yr old.. 200 plus for sure..  Just not worth it. 

    And Winnipeg is one of the cheapest places to see a football game.
