Not good enough for a playoff team but good enough for worst team in the league. Yeah makes sense

You know I have had the opportunity to meet some people who spent the better part of the last 10 years working as political staffers in Ottawa and I won't bad mouth the jobs anymore. Some very smart hard working people who just happen to enjoy the policy work. It is definitely a real job and in some ways can be more volatile than a real job if the government of the day decides to up and cut the funding for the department you are working in.

Well a guy who has been around as many CFL training camps as Kevin Glenn should be one of the best players on the field early in training camp.

Hey if you take away their excuses then the Rider fans don't have anything left at all.

Hey I'll bet Glenn looks great in training camp, no fear of getting hit in camp, but once people start getting some licks on him he'll do his usual KG5 panic move.

You know what, I would agree that the Riders probably aren't the worst team in the league, trouble is they don't play in the east so getting their wins is harder when you're still looking like the worst western team on paper.

8 wins almost always guarantees playoffs, the Riders won't get there. There's only so many wins to go around in the CFL and to me all the other west teams are too far ahead of the Riders for them to get to that total.

yeah but then you said

how is Ogopogo not a momumental improvement on using rookies at the other DE spot? I mean I'll let Nevis and Cummings being a wash go but come on, that other DE spot is a major upgrade. Now as far as Shologan goes, I never expected much out of him, I felt his season in Ottawa was playing over his head, I mean the Riders did leave him open to the expansion draft for a reason.

It does when everything the Bombers do is wrong and everything everyone else does is right.

So Gurley basically says he saw less competition for reps with the Bombers than the Redblacks and signed here and then was disappointed that they didn't make him the focal point of their team after joining late...

I think we cancelled the playoffs so no winner was determined

There has been some good reviews but also some not so good ones, I think it's one of those ones we'll have to wait and see on, cause it's also possible that because it's a female super hero movie people are reluctant to be as critical of it as they might be if it was just another man. Kind of like how people went out of their way to praise chick ghostbusters or be labelled sexist.

Now I was reading somewhere that they weren't totally sure if they'd be doing that this year, dunno if that's true or not or what the status is but by god I hope they get something.

I think it's pretty much a guarantee that Hamilton gets it when they actually want it but they don't feel they are in a position to host the thing at this time.

Bombers 18-0 Rest who cares

Which is also homerism, at this point anything other than ranking the Bombers higher is just delusion and homerism. It's OK, in riderville that's what is considered rational thought so I won't hold it against you but you should know that once you step outside the bubble that **** doesn't fly.

Davis was ahead of Bennett on the depth chart last season so based purely on that it's a point in the Bombers favour since it appears that Bennett is #2 in riderland. Then Lefevour has backed up and played and won games in the league before too so that's another check in the Bombers favour. You know what the only logic for rating the Riders qb depth ahead of the bombers is? Homerism. Pure blind homerism.

OK but since Hurl was starting MLB the team improved it's defensive line... Was it replacing Hurl that made it go from 8th to 6th or upgrading the DL? I mean not like people haven't talked about Ritchie Halls defense needing a good DL to be truly effective since he was hired or anything...

yeah and now Kevin Glenn is a 37 year old qb who has been in decline for several years so I dunno what point you're trying to make here. With Durant you got a chance if he stays healthy to actually win games, with Glenn best case scenario is being mediocre at best on offense.

5 years ago I'd agree with everything you say about Glenn, but it's 2017.....

Try as many things as possible and figure out what you like and go from there. Really is trial and error and given people have different tastes what some one else loves might not do it for another person.
