As for showing class, respect is earned, not given... I understand your logic of taking the high road, but these idiots had anointed their team as holier-than-thou and destined to win the Grey Cup despite their undisciplined play throughout the season. Not only that, they got absolutely stomped in the season finale by the same team that eliminated us. Misery loves company Rider fans! The better team in the play offs, is the one that wins. That simple. Respect is earned, class is learned. Its not a point of the rider fans earning our respect. That wont ever happen. Its a matter of us being better then what we point fingers at rather then dropping to that level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Duper Negatron Posted November 19, 2017 Report Share Posted November 19, 2017 I went in expecting a Rider win and to lessen the pain I convinced myself I wanted to see Glenn get a ring. This is much better. The Classic, Eternal optimist, SPuDS and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tracker Posted November 19, 2017 Report Share Posted November 19, 2017 (edited) Riders got what their arrogance and dishonesty deserved. In the end, they beat a poor team and lost to a mediocre one.

Judd Posted November 19, 2017 Report Share Posted November 19, 2017 (edited) The Riders are a .500 team and proved it today. They won last week against a .500(ish) team then lost today to a .500 team. They had no real chance to win it all and that was put to rest today.

Thank God, at least the Grey Cup is one I can watch now. I think I hope Toronto wins it, esp if it's them vs Edmonton. It'd be a good welcome home for Trestman and Ricky Ray getting one more cup for his career which given his injuries may not be lasting much longer.

We still went farther than any of us expected. It was certainly a disappointing game filled with inexcusable mistakes, but we are still proud of the boys. For the first time in 3-4 years, we played meaningful games, and it should only get better from here. I'll be patiently waiting for next season.

Meh, Bluto seems like a cool guy, Eskies knocked us out, and Calgary is insufferably full of themselves. I think I'm in the majority when I say once the Bombers were out of the running, everyone wants someone other than SSK to win. Doesn't matter who, just not them...

First thing I found when I went on that site was, a thread with a bunch of whining idiots complaining about a suplex being a penalty, and Glenn's chest being grazed by a hand not being a RTP call. Not only that, but the same posters admitted that they didn't think it should be a penalty but they've seen it called before so it is a penalty today.

bustamente Posted November 19, 2017 Report Share Posted November 19, 2017 Riders fans realized today what we realized last week, that there team was just not good enough, that being said I think our future looks brighter than theirs.

I like Ray and Trestman, no Argos particularly annoy me. I'm having a harder time deciding who to root for in the battle of Alberta though.

Noeller Posted November 19, 2017 Report Share Posted November 19, 2017 (edited) I hate every ******* team and their fan base but there's a special place in hell for the people from the Gap who wear their green **** to every event in every venue on the planet. They're among the worst organisms in our universe. Worse than cockroaches. Stamps/fLames "fans" are gaining on em but not at that level...
