Where did you hear it? At the telethon?

Probably a "1990" joke... You know, because flatbillies are so original.

"flatbillies" is funnier than "greenies"

yeah not winning since 1990 kinda sucks, but organizational wise I'd rather have 10 cups than 4. and the most grey cup appearances

"1990" is the only material they have when they decide to show up and troll rival forums because their team is competitive for a few games.

For all the dooms day talk over here, the Riders scored exactly 3 points in the second half. 

 

Well, if you want to be exact... it was 4 points

That's the best part....

Who's got the richer history - Well that's no debate.  Most Cup appearances (still) and 10 Cup wins is better than 4.   Hell, Bud Grant coached us to 4 wins all by himself!  Oh, and who brought Western Canada it's first Cup?  Thought so. 

OK - but what have you done for me lately -  Thanks for asking!  This year's 7-3 coupled with last year = 18-10 in our last 28 games, or a 64% win rate.   That's 11 or 12 wins in a season.   <<< Give me that kind of mark from here til the end of time, and this Bomber fan is happy. 

- - - - 

Really though.... 1990 is the dumbest Bombers insult ever.   If I were a Rider fan, and I hadn't already off'd myself because of it, i'd mock the Bombers for 2007.   Glenn this, Glenn than.  2007 Grey Cup is THE ONLY thing that franchise should hold over us.  Luckily for us, half their fanbase now weren't watching back then 

What will be different? More people cheering for Winnipeg. It will be louder.

Better production on first down on offence.   You've got to play press and take away the 8 yard slant, hook and dig routes on their first downs.  Second and long is where you need to put them.  And smack Glenn once.  Hard.

AND WHAT DO THE MAJORITY OF FANS SAY?

MORE COWBELL!

We could pull an AC Leonard, jump offside and hit their QB. Best 5 yard penalty ever.

 

 

fuckers....

I was going to tell a joke I heard today. It's funny but then I thought some might be offended. So I removed it  

 

An MMB poster showing restraint? ...Bugger off.

So ... I can see the Riders getting flummoxed on offense due to the noise and one of their linemen grabbing his leg and collapsing in order to draw a whistle before the play clock expires.

I think we hit around the 115-118 decibel mark. We're gonna make New Mosaic look like a library.

It was not that loud. When IGF is really loud it sounds like one noise actually can be a bit unconfortable. Labour day was not even close to that.

Princess Auto has some large cowbells available if someone is looking for something louder!
