I'm watching this to laugh at Chris Jones Apparently Durant isn't playing? You'd think they'd want him to get at least a a few series in, it's almost like he hasn't played for two seasons and will undoubtedly be rusty (no matter how good Riderfans think he is). Oh well CFL ball is back. BMO looks like a great place to watch a CFL game. Congrats Argos and Bluto, your long Rogers nightmare is over ...

Meh, it's preseason. Our full roster isn't even playing, most notably Durant. Not worried.

Can't understand that decision, they should establish some stability before throwing their young QB's to the wolves.

Durant should be starting next week.

But I thought everyone was raving about the BC unis when they came out? I remember reading that those were the nicest of the bunch! So weird... 

Have to say that when the pictures were released to the public i thought they looked great but now looking at them on tv i dont know what i was thinking and the helmets don't help things.

Preseason. Seen some alright things. 

Chiles' mitts are startlingly bad though. Smith looks decent running around back there. SSK defensive line looks strong.

What are you drinking tonight?  He's looking like a bad version of Robert Marve.

Smith, hasn't been horrible, but not great either. Very shaky and unstable. Still think he's the #2 QB, though. Coleman has been awful.

I was kidding ... but not really

Smith wasn't impressive last year. Don't ever see him being much.

That DL with Lemon and Cappicotti should be good.

They'll be OK with Durant, if Durant decides to take another year off however ...

Yeah, no Glenn this year. D would have to be stellar without Durant.

On another note, apparently the whole city of Regina has no power. Wonderful.

 

EDIT: Proven to be untrue by people on rf. Whole city is not without power.

Wow, it's uncanny how the Riders games always get power blacked out (especially when they are losing ).

Man the riders receivers suck. It serves them right for letting Dressler & Smith go.

I have a feeling this is going to be a constant lament on riderfans this season LOL.

Rumour on riderfans, they may have to call the game . What a great start to Rider football this season LOL. Keep it up Regina, it's nice that your power grid could suck as much as your team  ...

Too late ... the cows all left the barn.

Another riderfans rumour, game to start by 10:30 PM.

Only in the west end of the city they say. Problem is that is where the stadium is

Per sask power.

Ya just noticed it on the Twitter feed

I would say it's not fair to jump on the Riders team and declare them a huge bust just because the team struggles out of the gate.  A near full blown rebuild takes more then a few weeks to get a team back on track.

Now if they lose the first 8 games and are continually getting blown out and it's Marshall 2.0 situation... then I grab the popcorn and enjoy the crash and burn.

This is a rival fan website, we don't have to be fair

Hope the game gets back on soon, I can't stand watching Jim Popp in a wrinkled suit much longer.

Lights are on according to riderfans, now we can see the Riders lose a bit later than we first thought ...

Let's face it, this is most Bomber Fans when it comes to the Roughriders sucking.

LOL that a confetti cannon caused the power outage. Only in Saskatchewan.
