Chaosmonkey Posted July 11, 2013 Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 @ (2-0) (1-1) The first game of the week has the province of right angled borders invading the center of the universe. The Riders look to remain undefeated to start the season, as the Argos are trying to bounce back after a less than stellar effort last week which saw them fall 24-16 to the Lions. Rickey Foley will be having his first game against his old team, one that he helped to win a championship with his Most Outstanding Canadian performance in the 100th Grey Cup game. For the third straight week Geroy Simon will be on the sidelines with a nagging injury. He has yet to play for the Riders after they traded import receiver Justin Harper and a 3rd round pick in the 2014 to the BC Lions in order to acquire him. Harper was later cut by BC during training camp. Geroy signed a new contract with the Riders, rumored to be worth $170,000 plus bonuses. When will the Riders start to see some production for the pay they are dolling out? As long as they keep winning, does it matter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Dee Posted July 11, 2013 Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 Hard to cheer for either of these teams. I can always hope for a tie I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaosmonkey Posted July 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 Hard to cheer for either of these teams. I can always hope for a tie I guess. With us playing Toronto next week, and them having more days to rest, etc. having them go the distance in OT would be nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fraser Posted July 11, 2013 Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 based on FF and a hatred for the Riders I hope that TO wins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

voodoochylde Posted July 11, 2013 Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 With us playing Toronto next week, and them having more days to rest, etc. having them go the distance in OT would be nice. And getting beat up in the process wouldn't be a bad thing either .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atomic Posted July 11, 2013 Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 Rider win would be better for the Bombers but I hate the Riders so... Go Argos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noeller Posted July 11, 2013 Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 There are no winners in this one. I hope it's a 3-2 game, and half of each roster gets injured... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaosmonkey Posted July 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 There are no winners in this one. I hope it's a 3-2 game, and half of each roster gets injured... but not a real bad injury that you would look bad for cheering for. Just a little something like a high ankle sprain that becomes a nagging issue for pretty much the rest of the season. Noeller 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fraser Posted July 11, 2013 Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 There are no winners in this one. I hope it's a 3-2 game, and half of each roster gets injured... With 22 people already on the IR, if half their roster got hurt they would litterally have a whole team on the IR. Noeller 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noeller Posted July 11, 2013 Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 ha ha -- I'll take it. Words can't describe my level of disgust for both of those organizations fans (Never anything against the players themselves...just the fans) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holoman Posted July 11, 2013 Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 There are no winners in this one. I hope it's a 3-2 game, and half of each roster gets injured... Especially if Rod Black manages to be Play by play guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rebusrankin Posted July 11, 2013 Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 I feel so dirty for saying it but Go Riders! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaosmonkey Posted July 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 Especially if Rod Black manages to be Play by play guy Seeing as they have paired up Black and Suitor for this year, 100% chance they are the team for tonight. Suitor must have a line in his contract that he does every rider game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrueBlue Posted July 11, 2013 Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 You got to go with the Riders on this one. I just want to see Durant get hammered in the process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iso_55 Posted July 11, 2013 Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 Hate the Riders... And their jackoff fan base. Even though it's an Eastern opponent, Go Argos! Everyday is a good day when the Riders lose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Blue Posted July 11, 2013 Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 Riders will fall apart eventually and care most about us winning the division so I'll root for Saskatchewan. Black and Suitor really helps TSN lock up all their terrible announcers in one booth at least. I like Cuthbert and Ford. Chaosmonkey 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKAChip Posted July 11, 2013 Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 I sorta hate all the other CFL teams equally but by no fault of their own, I hate the Argos a little bit more. At this point, the Riders are a Western team and it will always be better for us when they beat Eastern teams so it's no contest anyway. I am under the impression that Black and Forde are back together this week for whatever reason and they are doing the game tonight which sucks since it probably means they also do our game. I was kinda hoping they'd keep it as Cuthbert's team staying east and Black staying West but I guess that was wishful thinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holoman Posted July 11, 2013 Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 Black will want to work the Ticat game. Which means every kickoff will begin with this... "And there's the kick off....Glen, I think I saw the outline of Sam Giguerres crotch. I'm not sure I can call the rest of the game....woah a touchdown.. When did that happen?"

bluto Posted July 11, 2013 Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 hoping for an open roof and another big crowd tonight... even if tomorrow you'll see Riderfans claiming that the crowd was mostly Rider supporters... Argos have plenty to prove tonight after the letdown on the left coast last week. Riders also could serve notice to the league with a decisive win. have fun hating, y'all. i'll be there mocking Saskies on levels that they can't even comprehend. johnzo and Atomic 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make sure they can count to 13 before you get to more advanced subjects, or it'll just go right over their heads. bluto 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
