Bluto, think he was talking about Duke and Rider fans here. 

If that's the case, I apologize for the reaction. I took it to mean that he was referring to us Double-Blues.

 

Duke is perfect for Sask.....fits their culture...they will overpay...along with overpaying Fartado....and he will cause rifts and complain and ***** when he gets the steady supply of god awful passes, and will most likely ruin the development of their young Canadian receivers as they will probably emulate him...as it seems the newer young DB's like to emulate the douchers like Purifoy/edam/Marshal and Gainey

I don’t see Duke staying with the Riders. I see how doing a Muamba cross country tour and ending up back in Edm once they sign Jones as CEO/GM/Pres/HC/Janitor

+ MBT pushing the camera guy around on the field 

Absolute debacle....

I saw a video and I believe a drunken ticat fan spit his beer at an Argo and that started it all 

That video... total fans fault. Just a disgusting act honestly

Let’s hope the Ticat fans take a loss better than a win next weekend and show a bit more respect to the players.

Great

We made Fox News

"At the end of the game, two men allegedly jumped a barricade and were attempting to fight with players," police said in a statement. 

 

John Murphy, Argos GM, is clearly caught on video calling someone a homophobic slur.

That is not going to go over well. He could be in massive trouble.

What a ****-show.

Where does Hamilton sit in the "likeability scale" after their dumbass fans spits beer at players (in the niddle of a health pandemic no less) and jump barricades to start fights?

Ok well maybe they folding.

And Hamilton is trash top to bottom.

Yeah that is a problem.

BTW I notice you said you want us to lose against Hamilton but think we will win on RF.com.

I can appreciate that. But cheering for Hamilton still makes you the enemy.

Hard to judge a fanbase by their worst examples, IMO. Enough dumb **** done by Bomber fans that I would object to being associated with.

That said, **** Hamilton.😄

Those "punches" thrown by the guy in Steelers jersey were two of the saddest puff ball slow motion punches in history.

Anyone who jumps out of the stands to fight professional football players.....is simply asking for a beat down...

Simply can't have the players so close to the fans period. 

Now if someone is identified, like say a GM, using racial/homophobic slurs, that's a different thing all together and he should absolutely be disciplined. And disciplined harshly.

Like you gentlemen, cheering for an arch rival just isn’t an option! Though I don’t think you will be beaten. Truth is I’m more so just cheering for a good game.

Asking and deserving of.

I would be in the same boat.

Yeah, I'd never cheer for the Riders in a million years, tho it's not so much an "arch rival" thing so much as I just hate every single person from that province, because of the Riders, full stop. 

They are intolerable now. Imagine it was the 5 stripes?

Just personally as I live in Alberta, I have a deeper rooted hatred for Bo Levi & the Stamps than I do for the Bombers. Being raised near Calgary has led me to hate any fan of any team from Calgary.

WTH was Murphy doing & why was he there in the first place?

Prob on his way to their dressing room...that was the only way to get to it

I’m not sure if the video posted here is the entirety of what’s available online.

Cant link it off my phone but there’s a video on Twitter that shows the whole thing and Murphy put his hands on a female Ticat fan (no clue what she was doing there), then took a swing at a male fan who said something to him, called him a homophobic slur and exchanged a few more blows with him.
