do or die

Wish I could simply find a electronic way to touch my forelock.....next time I enter RiderFans...

Rider fans stance on the fines? They blame: BLM Orridge The other teams The league-wide conspiracy against the Riders, fueled by envy Pretty insular world, this......

The rate of turnovers we have forced, lately....is realistically not sustainable for the rest of the year......the deal will be to find other ways to keep getting things done

Getting out my splicer.....

Right NOW....the TEAM is playing well, period. This revisionist obsessing with who might of done what, whenever in place of another is getting pretty old, and is a utter waste of time. Willy for whatever reasons.....not adjusting to new O, beat down, lost confidence, or bad grooming....was not getting it done - so he simply had to sit. Nichols is not putting on a passing circus with big numbers....but is limiting turnovers and finding ways to put some more points on the board. So we just run with him.... If/when Willy gets back in there.....we will see. His deal would be to prove he still has it. Think the Bombers will deal with that situation, at the end of the year. We have already seen the value of having a veteran backup....instead of tossing some young guy to the wolves.

If you want true spin.....check out Fox News..

We nearly had 3 more picks on D.....

His placement and hang time on the punts has been very good

Nice to have a team that can pick up the QB, if he gets off to slow start.................

This team is now playing well enough, in all other phases....... to pick up the QB, if he starts slowly

Winning turnover battle, big-time Strong special teams, in all phases Strong defensive effort Good OL play Good running game QB throws couple of TD passes Morning after hangover

Blew it......failed to mention Loffler.....8 tackles and forced fumble... "sigh"

The run game really helps...... On the bomb to Denmark....the play action fake, had the DHB standing still and looking into the backfield.....as Clarence ran right by him.....

OL better Special teams better D better Nichols 1 turnover in 3 games...

Perhaps MOS doesn't need a out....

Well Noeller..... as far as the real pure rants....you would remember 2004-2005....

Loffler: 8 tackles and a forced fumble

During a lot of the bad losses, had to work hard to ensure that the thing didn't simply become one gin-fueled rant....

I wish I had Ian Wild's motor...

Bit of a mix.....at the stadium the first 3 years or so, were with no notes, at all. I do notes now....but depending how I feel, use different amounts of it......some times sitting at the computer....simple veer off in another direction (blame gin). The road stuff has more editing as I am already typing and drinking, as game is in progress.... Half in bag, not sure if is explains anything...

Nah....lets get some more guys back (especially Dressler) and keep cruising....

Nichols throwing off-target early....,. Fogg 35 yd punt return...sets up long Medlock FG... Very conservative O in first quarter.... Stubler D jamming Blue short passing game.... Kilgore hits D. Spencer behind Fogg for 70 yd TD.... ....Chad should of quit, while he was ahead..... As the Fogg began to roll in with a INT....with much more to come. ...after Nichols gives up his first INT of year.... Next series...Kilgore picked off by Bass.... Next play...Denmark wide open..30 yd corner pattern TD... As the ole Bomber turnover followed by touchdown game continues... Jace Davis not doing himself any favors......13 -10 at the half Fogg recovers fumble....then picks off Kilgore on next series.... Nichols gets short passing game untracked....down to the redzone... ....Harris caps the 92 yd drive...by running right through 4 Argos for the TD... 20-10....Bombers taking over LOS on both sides of ball.... Blue DL getting stronger as game goes on... Harris pounding the rock, with good yards after contact.... ...this enables Nichols play action 80 yd bomb to Denmark.... 27-10 Blue.....24 unanswered points by Bombers.... Ian Wild: just another usual stud game..... Bond: knocking guys around...but 3 major penalties... Argo receivers not really helping Kilgore...... Bomber kick coverage excellent again.... Medlock on autopilot: 14 straight field goals... Fogg still a factor on returns... These special teams are in a serious groove..... Moe Leggett gets Bombers 5th INT of game....and his 2nd ...and scoots 98 yards to ice the game..,..34 -10.. 6 more turnovers for Blue D....14 in last 3 games.... Fogg? 2 picks, a sack, a fumble recovery and 4 tackles. ....and some serious ROY consideration... Denmark? Proves you can come home again ...... ...7 catches for 195 and 2 TD... ...seems Clarence likes being re-employed...... O-line didn't give up a sack .... ...and gave Harris enough cracks for 125 yards rushing.... Manase Foketi didn't really look out of place, at Tackle...... Late Argo TD window dressing....but 34-17 win on the road. 4 and 4, into the bye, after 1-4 start......will take it Gin after a string of wins.....will drink it.

Jefferson had 3 TD, with about a minute left......people were leaving the stadium. Saw J. J. trot out with the punt return team.....and I was yelling at people, telling them to stick around...because he was going to get another. Sure enough.....he runs up, grabs a line drive punt...and pops through a seam for about a 65 yd punt TD... I just sat there and laughed and laughed. Good times.

,...was at that game...

Hopefully the 90th man can give the Riders a boost on Saturday.......
