GDT - Banjo Bowl - Riders @ the Champs
Eternal optimist replied to JCon's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Lol maybe Toronto can do everyone a favour next week and they'll go from "undefeated plan the parade" to "uhoh, we're a .500 team" -

Meh, who cares if we are underrated. Let the Rider fan base be fat and happy. I am fine with everyone not giving us credit where it is due. Pretty sure TSN still hasn't comprehended pur manhandling of the Ti-Cats in the 2019 Grey Cup -
Ssk at Wpg Punching? Ejected! Rider D green with envy Lol Isaac Harker

HH to the entire Roughrider coaching staff for having such an undisciplined team that took massive penalties at crucial junctures in that game.

Imagine being so bad you have to juice up to record 2 defensive tackles and get spanked by your rivals in your own barn last week lol. -
I am eliminated and am electing to use my ability to curse players for good. William Powell.

Sure...even then though... That would incrementally have increased the bombers score by +4 (TD+PAT instead of FG) which would have made the differential only a 6 pt win... Which, in the CFL is still pretty close...
-
Yep. They're 1-4, but lady luck has not been on their side. Of their losses, only the 32-20 loss to the Elks was by more than a touchdown.
-
Over-doing ripping on the Rider fan base after such a dominating performance... What a wonderful problem to have.
-
I mean... they're not wrong.

So much this. People seem to forget we've run some great kickers out of town the last few years, Hajrullahu being the most obvious one... who ironically lots of people here are clamoring to sign. No place for this...Just wanted to point out that even Rider fans can't even be a-holes right... sounds like they got the wrong address.

Winnipeg's motto? "If opponents can not score, We will for sure win"

This is more indicative of the faults and pitfalls of using average as a metric as opposed to Rider ineptitude.

Alright this bothered me. Just how many people can say they won a Grey Cup with Saskatchewan? I looked it up... and the Riders' have won the Grey Cup 4 times... Unofficial roster player totals and a breakdown by year is provided below: 1966 - 37 players (2) 1989 - 53 players (3) 2007 - 77 players (4) 2013 - 71 players (5) Total: 238, less instances of same player with multiple wins (7) = 231 people Only 231 people! To put that in perspective 553 people have reached Earth's orbit (5) Sources (1) https://www.statscrew.com/football/roster/t-CFLSSK/y-1966 (2) https://www.statscrew.com/football/roster/t-CFLSSK/y-1989 (3) https://www.statscrew.com/football/roster/t-CFLSSK/y-2007 (4) https://www.statscrew.com/football/roster/t-CFLSSK/y-2013 (5) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_space_travelers_by_nationality#cite_note-1

Cal at Wpg Who would have thought that Leggio verse Paredes Would be exciting?
-
Lol I did, dude had a massive fumble in the CAL game lol
-
Lets go with Kyran Moore. Not because I think he'll score, but because I picked Huff last week and it worked out well for him lol
-
Well this aged spectacularly. My boy Huff had himself a game ... 6/7 on 92 yards, no TDs and a massive lost fumble. Huzzah!

3 stars plus hh beat the bronies
Eternal optimist replied to wbbfan's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Also, for anyone else wondering... within the 3-minute warning. (Before the end of 1st half, or in final 3 minutes) a time count violation results in (1) If it is 1st or 2nd down, it results in either a loss of down, or a 10 yard penalty with the down repeated or (2) If it is 3rd down, a loss of 10 yards. The refs weren't trying to job us. -

HH to Rose for the Stamps for his 2 boneheaded Roughing The Passer plays 😂😂😂 Seriously though? O'Shea for trusting his kicker and putting Leggio out immediately after his PAT miss to restore some confidence in him at the next opportunity. Went a long way in building his confidence for the other kicks I felt. -
Not trying to make him a pariah, just sayin' those were his numbers. I agree though that Collaros had a rough game. Cant speak for TV, but Irving made it sound like on a few occassions they were catchable.
-
He caught 4 of 8 passes thrown his way. He also had a 5 yard penalty (Offsides) which turned what would have been a manageable 2nd and 6 into a 1st and 15.

Does Harris still have a bad back from lugging that Grey Cup and hardware around for 2ish years?
