Allen took a lot of flack when he played & some fans seem to remember his laid back attitude on the field in a negative way. I think some believe that he didn't care but that was just the way he was. He was a competitor but he wasn't vocal about it. The guy is a deserved HOF'er. Glenn will get in due to longevity but he isn't anywhere as good as Allen was when he played.

Allen won Grey Cups in Edmonton, BC & Toronto.

I also seem to remember that Rick Foley's brother was the same way on Rider fans. That he was permanently banned for similar behaviour.

The sister of former Stamps safety Eric Fraser used to post on the Stamps fan forum. However, only when someone criticized her brother. Then she'd go crazy with rage. She'd fight, argue & insult anyone who thought Eric played badly. Which was most times as he really wasn't that good. Couldn't cover the field as he wasn't fast enough & couldn't recognize the play in time. One day Fraser gave up a TD late & the Stamps lost the game. Afterwards there was all kinds of criticism about how he played & she went nuts on everyone with anger & insults. Finally, I posted calling her an idiot, that she's embarrassing her brother as well as the Stampeder organization & not making it better for him with the fans by acting like a petulant child on the forum & if she didn't like criticism of her brother to get lost & stay away. Anyway, that seemed to work as she didn't post as much after that. Then he was drafted by Ottawa & she disappeared. So, I'll take credit for that. LOL.

You can laugh all you want but the fact of the matter is if Nichols goes down we are finished.

I've seen 7.

Incredible as it is I think it speaks to his professionalism as a player.

I didn't say it was useless as coaches need to appraise talent while forming a team but you can't base future performance on it either as there are so many variables.

LeFevour can't even do that.

I think it's because have the worst tandem of backup qbs in the CFL.

Don't agree. He's a Rider so around here we discount ability by a further 20%. Bridge has a funny style of throwing the ball but even with that LeFevour isn't his equal.

Bridge is a much better passer than LeFevour. I'd take him over Le Fevour in a flash. I didn't know how bad he was until we played Calgary & their B Team defense. Conditions were bad but Nichols would have had decent numbers.

Those dumbasses could shut down the government. What idiots. Well America, you get the government you deserve.

Pre season? You can't use that for any real comparison. Defenses play vanilla. He might have been facing guys from the 5th to 7th round. Half the players from that game never made it to the regular season.

I'd throw up if Bond became a Rider.

Why wouldn't they? They brought back Hurl as the starting MLB so why not go for the double.

The thing is they won't.

Then quit hallucinating. There are detox & counselling programs you can get help with.

Not Neufeld!! This decision is about as rational as going back to Hurl as MLB.

I've watched the Big Blue more than a few games & history says Patrick Neufeld can't be a long term starter as he has injury issues which keeps him out for long stretches. It happened when he was with the Riders. It happened in 14, 15 & 16 until he was eventually replaced as a starting guard. Now, they want to go back to him?This makes about as much sense as giving Sam Hurl the starting MLB spot when we all knew he couldn't start back in 2015. Only Mike O'Shea & Kyle Walters thought otherwise & we know what happened last season with Hurl back in there. It didn't work. Depending on Patrick Neufeld to be our long term starter is rolling the dice. What started the turnaround with the Bombers a couple of years ago??? Starting Travis Bond on our offensive line. Messing with it by playing Neufeld is a scary thing. Our backups will end up playing more than him which won't be good. The same ridiculous rationale for playing Hurl is going into this decision if Travis Bond leaves & signs elsewhere.

You have to get over this. We aren't the same bad football team we were a few years ago. The 2018 Alouettes are the Bombers of 2013.

Washington State qb Tyler Hilinski, a sophomore was found dead today from a single gunshot wound to the head. A suicide note was left. Hilinski was expected to be the starter next season. He was 21.

Remember last time we did that? And Neufeld was part of that. He barely played when he started. I don't know how things will be any different this time.

Ascension just aren't very good to be honest.

Yeah, I like that. I'm all for signing Durant. Davis is a slug whose had 3 years to figure it out. LeFevour. Is. Just. Awful. Get rid of him. Having a short yardage qb with no passing skills is just too much to sacrifice in the long term.
