  1. Send her vemo details Im tired of watching our DL get mugged each week. 😉
  2. Exactly. Thats even a minor part of the issue with the schedule. But huge streaks of home and away games is bad. 1 home game in 4 weeks is lousy enough here. Having home games that are few and far between is bad for the game. Even in the crappy markets like tor. But all he heard was RIDERS and BAD SCHEDULE COMPLAINTS. And was triggered. I dont think many schedules even out this year. A lot of teams schedules are just bad. Its bad for teams, bad for players, and bad for fans. This schedule was very short sighted. It shoudlve been trashed, some one shouldve been fired, and a decent one drafted. Idk if it was the schedule maker, or their boss, or the league but some one crapped the bed. No team should be playing 2 games in the same schedule week. Ever. No team should even play with less than 6 days between it and their previous game. This year is already hell on the players bodies. I cringe soo hard when I think about ott playing twice in week 10. Toronto is coming off a bye they go from a game on the 24th to the 6th. Montreal plays on the 2nd of the previous week to the 11th in that week. 2 very well rested teams vs ott in the same week. Come on. They dont even get a bye after that, they play again on the 16th. 3 games in 10 days. Then edmonton finishes with 3 in 6. If any player is seriously hurt from the wear and tear in these games the league is going to have hell to pay. This type of bush league BS hurts the league, especially in trying to grow its popularity with the younger demographic. We are gonna see some horrible football down the stretch. What a way to set up the play offs.
  3. Lmao, and then next year ott is a killer team. TSN and the cfl media have an un questionable bias. Towards the riders, and towards the ontario teams. The refs are generally bad. This year they are worse. Its a league wide problem. We have no consistency game to game week to week. I dont think its bias'd but it does supply and advantage to a less disciplined team. We won despite lots of questionable, poor, and missed calls. And some truly head shaking decisions from the booth. Our DL handled the ssk riders ol, but none of the holding or blocks to the back were called against the riders. Do I think the CFL called the refs before the LDC and the BJB and said hey keep the riders in it? Nope. Would I be surprised if they were told hey let them play more in these two games? Nope. We have seen some crazy flips from massive 15-20 flags on a team, to virtually no penalties for 3 quarters of a game or more.
  4. Thats not the issue with the schedule. It has many issues as Ive listed. Finishing on the road vs at home doesnt matter unless you need the last game to clinch a play off spot.
  5. No just a rider troll.
  6. No it doesnt, thats exactly the point. 4 games vs ott for montreal, 0 for us. Edm plays 3 games in 6 days. Ott has to play 2 in 5. We have to play 4 home and home back to the back series this year. You think that all equals out in the end? Shake your head geez.
  7. Used to yeah. We swept bc last year. He had a solid game the first time the 2nd time was 16/28 for 177 and a pick and sacked him 7 times. Reilly is tough, but our defense is even better then the 2nd game of last year. Edm handled him pretty easily this year too. A banged up qb vs our D is a great combination for us.
  8. I feel like a 1 dimensional offense like BC doesnt pose a big threat against our D. The DL can pin their ears back and pass rush the secondary can play off and tackle. But thats not this week, first things first. Kick the elks ass.
  9. The ontario teams arent gonna pull that much any way. To balance the schedule around optimizing attendance in low attendance markets is like teaching nothing but grade 1 math to a grade 8 class because 1 or 2 kids are at that level. They couldve also achieved the same by stacking the east teams byes in the first half of the season. Their issue their problem. I think they took the quick easy way out of the schedule making this year. Rather than making tough but fair calls and issuing a reasonable schedule they just took the cheap way. Comparing out strength of schedule to teams like the 2nd half of the season for montreal or the firs stretch for ssk you cant even value wins the same. If toronto and montreal both end up in a regular season tie, toronto is a much much better team. If montreal wins 2 more games than toronto, toronto still had a better year and is a better team. This week is the half way point of the year and its 3 away to 4 home.
  10. Yeah great listen so far, the best pre game show from them imo. You can win fast. Creating culture is a bit slower. Since 16 mos is the best leader in the league and its not even close. You can argue other coaches for Xs and Os and what ever else but over all leadership no one is with in a mile of him. Several years ago (Im thinking hes talking ray or SJ green.) 60k housing budget for the year.
  11. The schedule maker this year should be fired. mtl gets 4 games against ott, ssk gets all home games to start. We dont play ott once, and get our first bye at the half way mark of the season. And now edm gonna play 3 games in 6 days. I dont feel bad for alberta, but players in edm arent to blame for their idiocracy. The league shouldve had a bye week at the end of the year and put any cancelled games into that week. Some thing. 3 games in 6 days is not a solution.
  12. Another nice little nugget is them talking about coaching. How Mos leaves the locker room and its leadership to the players. And walby talks about how cal very seldom came into the locker room. And when he did it was to sit with the OL, drink, and just talk after wins. And how great it was for them to get to know him as a person, beyond just being their coach. Mos and Cal are very much cut from the same cloth. Mos is the perfect player coach in the modern era imo.
  13. Worth listening to even just for the opening mini story by walby, its about 1 minute long.
  14. Yeah he's big, so he's got that goin for him. Not much else lol. Time for our D to put the HURT on a rookie qb.
  15. Nobody: Ssk has 1 wr in the top 18 and hes american. Suitor: iTs TeH CanAdIaN aIr FoRcE1111!! Half of them are around woli/bailey line. Id take woli and peterman over all but 1. And id take woli over all of em.
  16. Thats freaking gold. Post of the day. Ottawa is known to take things the glue factory doesnt want.
  17. They got their ass kicked back to back in the two biggest games of the year. They were gonna come out hard for this game at home. Stubler has a knack for under performing ds
  18. Great crowd what do they have like 20k lmao
  19. Back to back games. Stubler is the worst DC. The riders are fired up from the ass whupping we put on them.
  20. Any one want to debate about how blm is an elite qb still lol
  21. Half their defenders constantly flat footed and waiting.
  22. Casey printers maybe.
  23. The rich stubler effect on a defense.
  24. When they aren't tipped they wobble and miss the mark. He's getting rid of it too slow which old Levi Mitchell never used to do. David Watford about to beat the stamps. What.
