I can never, ever cheer for the Riders but a win vs Calgary gets us that much closer to first

Had to spend the week in sakabush for work. Needless to say i got my bike stolen and couldn't find a single interesting thing to do.

Notable suggestions from locals favorite things to do: go for a walk, go to the movie theater, and, "wait till Sunday cause there's a riders game"

On the drive back i listened to the riders pregame and they had some jewels like "the riders are the second best team in the league" and "the riders have the best secondary in the league" 

I just cannot reinforce riders success because as soon as they are good TSN gives them hand jobs every day and they go back to thinking they're the greatest fans of all time.

I hope Calgary just mops the floor with them

Their "journalists" are the biggest bunch of homer jagoffs on the planet. They dont even pretend to be mildly unbiased. Its embarrassing.

Mark there is literally nothing that matters more to me than Bombers winning, but Stamps and Riders fans heartache is a close second... And I'm talking life in general, here... 

Henoc knocked that receiver back about three feet.

He can definitely hit.

Love this Begelton's toughness, reminds me of ex-Bomber Thorpe.

The Riders have been fortunate so far, but I'm still expecting them to crumble.

Wow! What a hit!!

helmet to helmet, he's knocked out.

Lot of dirty s**t going on in the CFL lately.

Bombers only need Calgary to lose to one other team before the last week of the season.  That loss doesn't need to happen this week.  Go Stamps.

Looked like shoulder to helmet.

Looked incidental, tackler did turn his head and didn't lead with it.  Looks like Carter got an objectionable conduct penalty for yelling at the ref.

definitely helmet on helmet contact. Unfortunate cause the receiver ducked into the helmet, but you can't do that no more. 

bo levi no longer elite.

He's playing hurt.... No question. But they have nobody else so he has to play.

I know, I know, we don't use Hurl like a traditional m linebacker,

but look at what singleton and Henoc are doing.

egads.

 

Not impressed by Bo and the offense 

Ref's job is to watch the kicker, Stamps have to waste their challenge on an obvious R.T.K. call.

Prouix is a terrible ref that literally happened in front of him and Calgary is forced to challenge

That was such an obvious roughing the kicker. How is it not called on the field.

you could clearly see the ref staring off at an angle downfield.

Defender did everything he could to avoid helmet to helmet.  Bad call.  Concussion hysteria has refs overcompensating and media virtue signalling

Ref - "a squirrel!"

Andre Proulx is standing right behind Maver and looking right at him.  You can see him grab for his flag but then doesn't pull it out. 

I feel bad for Dickenson having to waste his one challenge on an obvious missed call.  But we've had the same thing happen to us.

Roosevelt takes most the blame for that one. 

After that first half my dialectic, or is it my epistemology, has been problematized ...

Yeah, they almost need to start calling the receivers who lower their head as they run into the contact.
