Here's an interesting Twitter quote from their 1st round draft pick (5th overall)

Ese Mrabure-Ajufo ‏@emrabajufo99

They didn't say it was gonna be easy. They didn't say it would be this degrading and humiliating either #ChinUpKiddo

Mrabure-Ajubo was just de-activated and placed on the PR.

Here's how the other 1st rounders have fared so far this year:

Someone should tell Cuthbert & Forde we don't care where Southern Ontario players went to high school & university.

Because mentioning a football player's alma mater is something that is just never done on football broadcasts...

It's all about Southern Ontario. Player after player after player. Who gives a ****.

...their families, friends, classmates, coaches...

 

 

If they really cared they'd be in the stands, not watching it on TV.

Word from Riderfans is Dressler is out for this game

 

CKRM say undisclosed reason

Same ailment Addison Richards had in TC this year?

Milt says penalties are the fault of the players being undisciplined not the coaches.

Milt says penalties are the fault of the players being undisciplined not the coaches.

When players play undisciplined, it's a sign the coach has lost the respect of the players. It's really a leadership issue and Milt knows that.

harris and cato falling back to earth

Horribly disjointed game with sloppy play by both teams. Neither Sask nor Toronto seem to want to win badly.

messam is still scrapping for every yard

Ouch

rookies should not try that pass

Smith looked ready to cry after throwing that pick 6.

Great call

Forde is too good, I miss dunigan and suitor

Brutal tackle

Creehan getting lots of airtime tonight.

fun game to watch, despite the problems.

 

could have been easily tackled, he wasn't moving, guy went for the big hit

 

sask secondary hitting hard

game slipping away from argos

 

tired of challenges

Argos win 26-23 callin it

Is Bellefuile calling the game for argos

Harris isn't even looking down field, dinkin it every throw.

Call the cops! Homicide is way cooler than saying hi to your family

The safety blitz should be relegated to the junk yard.

Messam can't play ST glad we passed

Rider fans said we complained about BS calls playing them last year.

You should see the daily complaints /conspiracy theories there now.

Hilarious... Go Argos

Harris still falling back to earth?

Wow, Argos woke up.
