Rich

You seem to have a bigger issue with this then I do. My thoughts on this ... if another site is investing time to put CFL content out there, especially what appears to be an independent type of sports website, I think that is a plus for the CFL community. I can't imagine the amount of traffic they would get from clicks off this site give them all that much revenue. People would have to be interested in clicking, visiting their website, and clicking their adds. If you really want to have issues with it, their biggest benefit is google may see them as more important if they can get more 3rd party sites to link to them.

Click on your name in the top right where there is a down arrow, you should see a menu item called Ignored Users. Click that.

Assuming this is Eastern time, but this is a really long delay

Lightning delay in the Ham / Tor game

Here are the pics as the Instagram link keeps getting new masks added. I wonder if he should of put this on a Moose mask.

Picks need to be made by Friday @ 9 PM.

Locking this thread as it was created and perpetuated by a troll

Don't usually do this publicly, but man I'm tried of trolls who show up. Can't even leave for a weekend without the whole board going to hell. Blue Beard has been banned for trolling and signing up after being previously banned as ....... Road Griller. Guess he had no other place to go after OB closed down. Cheers Road Griller.....

And for a sort of Winnipeg Jets connection, the person suing him is Sherry Brydson, who is a member of the Thomson family and worth an estimated $6 Billion.

Enough of all the other shenanigans, lets get back to talking all the fantastic football yet to come this weekend, and get the pregame thread rolling....

First, I'm not Mike. I'm Rich. I never said anyone was breaking any rules. There have been people getting close to the line, but we typically give leeway especially in situations like this. This is not true. Unless these is a post I am not aware of in which case I apologise, I've never seen the OP specifically target you as a troll. I'm not going to enforce my opinions or beliefs by moderating posts to conform to those. When I moderate, I do so in what I believe is best for the site. When discussions get derailed or off topic or insulting, is usually when we step in. I won't moderate something for the simple reason that I disagree with it. You weren't given a warning. I would never warn someone or moderate someone in a public post for everyone to read. Moderation is done through the boards software and or PMs. I simply posted an opinion in an on going discussion. Not every post I or a moderator makes is an "official" declaration. These would typically be done in private PMs or an announcement of a change to site rules. If you believe any post is against the rules, there is a report post link above every post to report it so it can be looked at.

I'm not sure what you think you are entitled to here or how the OP is a sermon. This is message board, he posted an opinion that you weren't even singled out in. No one needs to justify why they would make a post like that. If you would have taken half the time it took you to post all these demands that people do your work for you to look up a post and just looked it up yourself, you would have found it by now. Posters who prove themselves to be trolls will always be banned, regardless of who they are and where they come from. I have always appreciated the perspective that other fan bases bring to a site like this, and would hope we could attract more to expand the community. And I get the Riders are a Bomber rivalry and there is always going to be a back and forth between the two fan bases that is to be expected, but I'm with Mike on this one. The behaviour of some posters here is down right embarrassing, The exact same kind of crap that I see at Rider Fans and shake my head at.

Drew Willy going into the game

I know he had a career that was longer then most, but when you look at the total sum of money these guys make, it is a staggering number.

Picks this week need to be in by Thursday @ 6:30.

The weirdest thing is when you hear him as a guest being interviewed on 1290 he sounds totally normal is actually a pretty good interview. It is like he has built up this play by play persona that he just can't get out of now.
