Which NAT starters are burt for the riders? I saw Bladek go down but who else?

Omg...lol that was a 3rd down stand

Hamilton still in preseason mode. I'm pretty sure TSN was saying they'd be pretty good....

Lawrence should have gotten tossed. At the very least, there should have been a fight. Someone should have punched him in his big mouth.

15 years and you still can't comprehend that you can be a fantastic athlete, but not a good fit for the NFL rules? Also, saying that something you've stated is impossible to measure and just an opinion is not getting defensive. It's providing a counter argument.

That's strictly you're opinion. And regardless of how stupid you want act, theres no way of knowing for sure. Youd have to compile huge amounts of data to even come close to a decent comparison. That's never been done, especially by you. I generally agree with you though, NFL usually has the better athletes. Saying that. The games aren't 1 to 1 comparable in themselves. Different needs by each game different body types etc. If you would pay attention, you might learn that.

The results will speak for themselves. Nichols cried himself all the way to the WF after he walked over the riders the last 2 times he played them. Including Collaros and his fantastic performance in that shut out. **** the riders, **** their fans. 2-16 starts tonight.

I disagree. NFL gets pumped up in Canada but the facts are, it's not as popular as most NFL fans like to believe. On top of that, ticket prices due to the American dollar etc etc would be higher leaving the seats empty. They'd draw decent crowds...but I'd wager after the shine wore off....they wouldn't fill it anymore then an average bomber game if that even.

Cupboard is bare? Take a look at the roster, they have enough talent to be very competitive. Especially on Defense. Offense has a decent group of rec, and a wrecking ball of a Rb...I'm not sure on the OL to be honest. Pipkin is the deciding factor though.

He can! And hes on a witch hunt to end the riders "reign" of being "Canada's team". Hes obsessed with it!!

So you're saying, that some rider fans think he worked with the Bombers to make sure they wouldn't have to let any coaches go but other teams would. By that measure, the Bombers would have had either a) the cheapest staff in the CFL or b) the smallest staff in the CFL or c) both. And some how the bombers benefited more then other teams? I'm not sure I understand the point or how this helps the bombers more then other teams. Also I fully believe the Commish is a Bomber fan. Thing is, professionals know how to separate personal feelings and professional responsibilities. Maybe Rider fans dont think hes professional, that's fine most are stupid anyway...shouldn't they start worrying about people spying on their practice?

There's no rule against it. But it's not something GM are supposed to do...

meh, these moves don't bother me. All is fair in love and war. And everyone always compares Football to war. If the Esks don't like it, do better next time.

I believe it's just dressed. Don't think it would make sense for them to force you to start someone. I'm guessing he will be the 6th OL.

Theyll have a guy on the 46 that has had at most 3 days of practice with the team.....good luck Reilly.

Yeah no worries in BC about that OL B.C. Lions have claimed OL J.S. Roy off the #Eskimos practice roster. The Lions will have to add Roy to their 46-man roster this week. #CFL

To be fair, they did pick up Micah and Solo. However. Micah won't be the game changer Jefferson was. Don't get me wrong. He's very good. But is he going to take over games, and even win games by scoring points? No he isn't. Solo is an interesting one...is he going to be as good as he was in BC? When is he going to play even?

It reads like it was either one of their top WR or Reilly. Saying that, based solely on those statements I think he was refering to Williams. To good for the team, bigger then the team...both Reilly and Walker knew their NFL time was over or close to it. Williams saw the $$$$ coming his way for sure. So wouldn't surprise me if it was him.

Yeah I think Mtl is going to be better then most think. Solid D, and they have weapons on O. The coaching change will bring its challenges, however it sounds like it was mostly player driven, so that could have brought the locker room together. They could make some noise.

I remember that game. Everyone was predicting an Argo win. Ray at qb, Argos had Burke as DC. And bombers had a new Willy....who subsequently went out and absolutely torched Burke and his man Defense. It was fantastic. I was so high on Willy after that, stood in the pocket with authority back then. Stepping into throws. Oh if we only knew then what we know now. If you beat your Willy too much, it stops working.

To be honest it basically takes all of ten minutes to fill your roster each week

There is zero doubt about Coombs talent. His issue is purely health related. Has he ever played more then 10 games in a year?

If you're on his website or visit it, shame on you. He's a professional troll. That's it. End of story. The only way hes going away is for people to ignore him. His website wants clicks, stop giving them to him.

Is there already a MBB group for TSNs CFL league? If not, I feel like we should start one.
