Around the League - Regular Season Discussion (Redux)
Ripper replied to BigBlue's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
He made a joke out of the NFL, he will do the same here. Its not just the domestic violence thing its a lot bigger than that. If its one thing maybe you give the guy a second chance. Cox got a chance with the riders on a short leash. He screwed it up and was promptly cut from the team. -

The guy is a walking piece of garbage. I hope we never see him in the league -
You don't have to chase me around on every post I make. I have dropped this for a few days, so I wouldn't be confused with mixing it up with you guys. I think we will win, I'm leaving it at that. I won't be hiding if we lose. Good luck to the Bombers in the game. Safe travels to anyone making the trip down.

We need to petition the CFL Commish to host LDC

I agree with you as long as you are sure you can win the first one. -

If I am playing someone two weeks in a row, I much prefer to have the second game at home. We responded well in game two against BC and being at home was a huge part of that. If you lose the first one at home, you are in danger of being swept. But if you lose on the road, always a good chance the home crowd can rally behind you in game two at home. LDC game in Regina in not a advantage for the riders at all. -

I get a kick out of Terry Jones piping in about Esks. They couldn't hire Tillman fast enough after we fired him. Not to mention Tillman works for the Ticats now too, no outrage when he was hired. -
We blew that game in Montreal, hands down. Crapigna hurt us with that miss. That 2 points would be nice now. The upright hit in Regina sucked as well, but that wasn't a sure victory as the Bombers would have got ball again so we may still have lost. The ones with the clock at zero and the field goal for the win are the ones that really suck, kind of like your guy whenever you play the Lions.

Might want to look at the stats a bit closer. Bombers have 191 more passing yards for the season than the riders, in one more game played. Bombers have 12 turnovers on offense, 2 more than the riders. Riders have more td passes. You have a 57 pt edge in points scored, in one extra game. Riders have edge in possession time, but its so close its basically a wash. Bombers have a 373 yard edge running the ball and more rushing tds. I would hardly say the stats show the Bomber offense substantially better than ours. Your Oline is 3rd worst for sacks allowed, a concerning stat going into this week. With the Lions not playing you can look to be 2nd worst or worst after the weekend. Only edge you have on us is running the ball. We are not planning on letting you do that so that will be the game story going in. I guess in conclusion, any of you satisfied or happy with your offensive numbers are hypocrites to not see the Riders nearly equal in every category.

Lets look at the big winning streak. Lucky wins against a bad montreal team. winless Ottawa, pulled that one out of the fire. Beat Hamilton, who hasn't. Beat the same practice squad eskimo's, in your stadium with a way worse roster than the one we pounded in their stadium last night. Respect is what you will get when you beat the western teams.
