Per @JDunk12: Esks, Riders talking trade. EDM wants No. 1 pick Josiah St. John AND a first for QB James Franklin. SSK, coherently, declined.

Ed Hervey vs. Chris Jones is going to be a real thing to keep your eye on over the coming weeks and months.

To reach for two first round picks, including No. 1 overall, in return for a back-up QB with a handful of pro starts is... hilarious, really

But... the Riders did not loose to Montreal, from what I read the Riders were beaten by themselves. I guess the Alouettes were just spectators.

I kid you not..On the rider board that's just the general thought. They're the greatest five win team in the CFL history. Don't believe me? They'll tell you themselves! 

I fully expect there to be a thread over there saying "If we were in playoffs via crossover this year, we'd be a Grey Cup favourite"

give rider fans some credit for their delusions. If they were in the west playoffs they'd be favored to walk over Calgary in the west final.

Calgary is due for a loss and they are playoff chokers... ahem.

Out of playoffs, ratings down, rainy day and stadium half empty. No, rider fans you arent different or special-you're just like everyone else. Welcome to reality.

#Bombers have released offensive lineman Alex McKay and receiver Quinshad Davis from the PR.

Nooo Quinshad.

They keep bringing in all these good looking prospects at receiver and none of them seem to stick.

Interesting that his college stats seemed to drop after his freshman and sophomore year.

Also not sure if it's a typo but he seemed to go 4/4 with 4 TD passes in his college career

Game was pretty much sold out so nice try.  Shouldn't you be more worried about how many games Collaros plays before he is back in the tub?

Way to burn him Ripper. I won't tell him...Darian's back to back years "in the tub" will be our secret.

As a non-Rider fan, I take offense to that.

Durant has showed over his career that he can play more than 6 games in a row without getting a owie...

Is that Quinshad or Quicksand?

While I had absolutely no idea what Alex McKay's potential was... I was rooting for him strictly based on the fact that he's an o-lineman from Winnipeg...

"pretty much sold out" is irrelevent. HAM "sells out" every game too . Point was fortunes are down and people are staying away ergo Rider fans are like everyone else which was the point.

I won't let my disagreements with you cloud my judgement. Hamilton has stood by their team well over the years. Hamilton is also about 500k and has a small stadium of 24k seats, so selling it out is not a monumental task. Nonetheless good on the Cat's fans for supporting your team. As far as you are concerned with your constant cheap shot attempts at my Riders, I'm proud of our attendance this year considering the off and on gong show we have had going at times. You can take your shots if you want, but over 30k tickets were sold last week, 6k more than your sell out you are so proud of to watch a team that has missed the playoff's 2 years in a row. Good luck in the playoff's, I wish we were in there, maybe next year..

god i hate rider fans.

Ripper is a pretty good. The Rider forum is cringe worthy though. 

Migs on twitter is the worst.  Between conspiracies and endorsing Trump, it's a mess

well, all those who thought the riders were going to split or win big at home at sure changing their tune in a hurry after looking at the GD roster for the riders. Resembles like a preseason lineup, looks like we'll have our work cut out for us to secure a home playoff game after all. but on the bright side we're perfect on home and homes this year (2-0) so lets make it's a hat trick

Isn't endorsing Trump and believing in wild conspiracies the same thing?

I've got Rider fan buddies in southwest Sask who are hugely right-wing, were staunch supporters of McCain over Obama and are definitely on the Trump Train. It's really messed up. They're good guys, otherwise, but.........yikes.

The final standings could be settled by tomorrow night. The boys from Jonestown are where they should be.

Man, When you look over the southern fence it can get scary. With all of our little problems we are very lucky.

conspiracy and rigged are close cousins. Some might say they are inbread.

Ah. You have a rye sense of humour but we knead that every now and again. Just don't get crusty over it.
