Enough of all the other shenanigans, lets get back to talking all the fantastic football yet to come this weekend, and get the pregame thread rolling....

 

Carter is a giant POS.... I can't wait till he's gone from our league.... 

There's nothing stopping anyone to contact the CFL through the website to tell them how you feel about the fake injuries.

And...he will be gone, disgraced.

My guess: if the Riders can keep Glenn clean, they win. That quick release of his really matches up well against that soft Richie Hall D.

You nailed it.

In my opinion they will not do this because having an exciting O is enough to put butts in the seats and the $$$ is always the bottom line in Winnipeg. Winnipeg is a city that always settles for good over great because great costs too much... typical small market mentality...

Sadly, Riders have always had a higher regard for being world class. Just a difference between the two provinces I guess.

You've posted nothing but dumb **** on this forum and these two posts take the cake. Regina is a smaller market than Winnipeg, BTW.

It's official: you're an idiot.

I thought that was assumed given the avatar.

Now be careful, he might handle you internally.

More crap from Saskatchewan

Consider the source. Rod Pedersen is a dolt.

He's a perfect Jones player, not embarrassed to fake an injury and then lie about it afterwards, now that's character!

That team has turned a brand new stadium in to a stink hole in 4 games.

World class?! Saskatchewan is a **** hole and their fans are loud and obnoxious. I got a job offer with a substantial pay raise to go live out there and I declined without a moments hesitation.

I'll cut him a bit of slack on this. Not all players are leaders and it appears he is following the instructions of his leader and coach, Chris Jones. We can't be surprised by any of this. That is the persona of the man, black shirt and everything. If you're expecting class and fairness from this guy, forget it. He is here to win and will do anything to achieve it. 

Chris Jones, always putting the ass in class, and it's rubbing off on his players. 

Best scenario for me would be the Bombers up by 17 in the 4th quarter of the Banjo Bowl, the Riders go to a hurry up offence and all the Bombers on D dropped on the ground grabbing their legs.

Rod Pedersen makes me wince in pain.

If only Dave Dickenson were as classy as ol' Jonesy!

Marshall out, Lafrance to start. I'm curious if Campbell and Labatte are out on the oline.

Apparently James their new DT was on crutches today.

There are 50 security cams in that building. Must be 300 cellphones within 50 feet. He claims to be close enough to see his teeth. Sounds familiar. 

Anyone that believes carter was spit on, would then have to believe he's a thug, as he admitted in the subsequent tweet. Carter can't have it both ways.

No Carter fan here, but apparently security went over there right after as Carter had talked to them.  There are classless fans everywhere.  Bombers had some last week, and I am sure the Riders will have some when they visit this week.   It is the unfortunate consequence of over indulgence, which is only heightened in games like LD and the rematch.  It shouldn't paint a full fanbase and looking at Carter's twitter early he essentially says the same at some point.  Unfortunate that this stuff happens, but it always well.

yeah, they accomplished very little on the ground if you were to take the one bust out of the equation.  I mean that was a big play, but that bust aside I think their longest run was maybe 6 or 7 yards with an average of maybe 2 or 3.

That should help the run game.  He seemed to be fairly controlling in there and slowed down the inside game considerably.

Sorry, but I really don't get the angst on taking a knee / feigning injury.  This has been a tactic used in football to slow up the opponent for as long as I can recall.  Frustrating?  sure, but hardly something new.  I am honestly not too sure I can recall a game that this didn't happen, and that goes beyond the CFL.  After a big play, long run on a pick or return, or simply to readjust either an O or a D when the other side is in sync, this has been around forever.
