Ripper

Too bad we don't have a zoo.

Played 11 years with riders. FB. Won 2 cups with us. He is born and raised in Regina, is Metis. He is our diversity ambassador. Don't quote me on this part but believe he is a schools teacher now

Your posts are a embarrassment to the entire Bombers fanbase. The Riders were on the wrong side of nearly every call today. Penalties were 10 to 3 against us. Did you even watch the game?

Today just gets better and better, Lynch out for a month. Be nice if one of my friggin teams could win a game

Ok. Sorry. Thought you were referring to something I said or this current situation.

What more do you want? Should the Riders cut him today? Jones gets slagged pretty hard by you guys. He is sitting one of his best players for a huge game because its the right thing to do, and its still not enough?

He may have kept him too long, that's true. I think he gave him every chance to turn things around and then moved on. Playing a different position had zero to do with him being let go.

In spite of all the jokes I read here about Sask. We are a community owned team and a mostly rural province. No one is too happy about this and it is a disappointment. Playing for the Riders is one of the biggest things that happens here. They are held to a very high standard. They are humans and humans make mistakes. I do object to all the posts looking down on Hughes, as if most of the people here have never had too many drinks and got behind the wheel. I am not defending what he did, but can admit I have done some things in my younger days that I'm not overly proud of now.

I agree with you here, I'm not here to argue the point. Drinking and driving is beyond stupid and very dangerous. I suspect if he is guilty on all this, he likely gets let go in the off season possibly. I got a DUI pretty close to 30 years ago, I never drove ever again beyond my 2 beer limit. I was young and full of piss and vinegar, the oil patch was a different animal in those days. Our kids idolize these players and I don't like the optics of this one little bit. I still don't see him missing any time this season as far as playing, but I think something will happen regarding this. I don't think this is a huge story though either, he f'd up. He is a grown up, he will face the consequences, whatever they might be

Willis got a DUI in the states 2 weeks after being traded to Riders from Bombers. He never missed one second of football time and still plays in the league. No one cared

Do you actually think he will get suspended from team or anything like that? That won't happen. Its a stupid thing for him to do, no one is defending it. People don't lose their jobs because they got a DUI unless their job is driving related

LOL, ok then. How many people got charged in Winnipeg last night with impaired driving? It happens every day in every city

Of course he isn't. This isn't much of a story except to those who want to try to make it into one.

That's not very nice..

That has been said to me here many times. You probably never noticed. The actual banning hasn't happened. But I have been warned by Mike one time to settle it down and I took it seriously and did.

I have been banned from Riderfans before so its not just out of towners that get a time out

Look at the turnovers in the banjo bowl. Nichols didn't play very good but I suggest the amount of pressure from the Rider Dline had a lot to do with that. Qb's that have a lot of time to just stand there don't usually throw too many picks, although it does happen sometimes. The Bombers had a good defensive game plan going into last week. They blitzed every time the riders emptied the back field. They saw something on film and they pursued it. It worked. We were down 14 nothing and your offense still had not registered a first down yet. We were down quick and it was over, we simply couldn't bounce back. That is how defense wins championships, they crush the spirit of the other team. You did that to us last week, full credit to you. I have faith that our season isn't over just yet. Nobody gives away anything in football, the good teams take it.

I don't know what happened and don't speak for anyone but myself. I try to show up win or lose. After all its just a game, it is supposed to be fun. People get carried away some times on these message boards. I've done it myself

You can't beat yourselves. That's the stamps excuse when they lose. Its taken

From your point of view, what you are saying makes sense. From mine, well, you beat us once in three games

Its funny how when other teams have a dominate defensive showing with piss poor qb play its ok. We have been doing it all year and it was smoke and mirrors

The MacGregor walk had everyone terrified

Nope

You still drunk from yesterday?
