December 9, 201510 yr Just read in the Toronto Sun that John Murphy signed with the Roughriders. They must have a lot of money in Sask.
December 11, 201510 yr I just wonder how long the Riders will have this unlimited supply of money. The province economy is on the brink of distaster if the price of oil does not rise.
December 11, 201510 yr Great move, what happens if the Riders turn it around in one off season? It would be impressive, although a bit of a stretch. What happens if Chris Jones bolts for the good ole south? Lots to keep our eyes on. Not that much of a stretch, really. Redblacks went from 2-16 to 12-6 and a Grey Cup appearance. Doesn't always have to be a ten-year plan like the Bombers. Well, if this was a slap to the Bombers that you wanted, then you've achieved your goal. Of course teams can turn it around rather quickly, there are many examples of that. But Ottawa is only a partial example of that. It would have been more impressive if the road to 1st place wasn't paved with littered QB bodies from the other 3 teams they were battling. Their record versus "contending teams" was less than impressive. Still, they made it there, and deserve polite applause. We'll see this year, if reality meets expectations.
December 11, 201510 yr The Red Blacks and Bombers were both in the second year of those regimes. The 2006 Bombers, first year under Berry, went from 5 - 13 to 9 - 9.
December 16, 201510 yr A team throws a ton of money and power at people who want more money and power and then hires them. Simple , right ? Wrong. In Priderland its a "miracle" a "coup" a masterstroke of football ops. genius. Look out world here we come.

Doesn't always have to be a ten-year plan like the Bombers. yes cause we haven't been to the cup in ten years......I get what you're saying, but the constant bs about the bombers always being bad is becoming a bit much. We've had a bad run the last few years. But it hasn't been 25 years of **** football. And thinking that is ridiculous.
December 19, 201510 yr I smell a backfire ... Dude, is that a watermelon? That would hurt Broken face, surprised it wasn't her head that went "splat".
