I really think you are the one missing the point, not vice versa. Is it your opinion their picks were sarcastic commentary on how the awards are done? If so, what would lead you to believe that? Or do you think that Milligan as MOP or Ford at NI is somehow better than the current nominees? 3DN is making the argument that the ability to pick from anyone is better by absolutely botching every pick to the point of ridiculousness when given the opportunity to demonstrate it yet you, for reasons I don't think anyone can understand, are defending their demonstration and suggesting people who don't see it that way can't see the forest thru the trees? Sorry, but that's just too rich.

So to prove that the current system is stupid they picked Milligan for MOP. How in god's green earth does that prove anything?

I wouldn't sign Harris to 350k unless there was no money up front. With every year past 35, the chances of a long injury absence increase substantially. If you re-sign Harris you gotta have a plan B, and the SMS for a plan B.

I am failing to understand it myself. Literally the worst part of their team was their extremely porous secondary. Teams threw at them because that was the easy path to victory.

He can't afford to be honest with himself or the media. He was with Collaros for a cup of coffee. Now we know why the Riders sold low on Zac, it was hurting Fajardo's feelings having him there.

Ford sucks but still might be the better option given Harris's age.

That comment kind of blew me away really. He went on further saying that he doesn't want to be in a situation where if he plays badly he might get benched. Like WTF?

For young players yea....natural landing pad for the over rated and end of career players tho.

One Grey Cup, hell one visit to Vancouver, was enough for me. Gonna have a Grey Cup party where people actually know there is a championship game going on. Atmosphere was beyond terrible last GC I went to in Vancouver. Like somebody died bad.

Davis Alexander might be an option, although I would think Regina would be a last resort.

If you are a player engaging with rival fans then you are the fool.

40 is not the age you want to roll the dice on players being or remaining healthy. If he had demonstrated an ability to win the big games...maybe...but he is a playoff choker that will be very near 40 by next playoffs. Why would they bring him back?

The million dollar tub club. They could sell t-shirts and recover some of that....although i don't think ppl in Saskatchewan know what a tub is.

I do hope they bring him back.

No excuse. As a paid professional you should expect a rough ride on the road from the fans. PERIOD.

He might have to. No ones paying him premium dollars anymore. Scratch that....the Riders will re-up him at 200k+.

AJO is fat and out of shape....there I said it.

AJO looks like he's been living at Dunkin Donuts and Armstead doesn't care about anything but himself and quit on them imo.

For sure. However, I'm not sure that was the Riders game plan. They just got way behind too fast and had to abandon the run before they could even get going. If TOs game plan is for Carey to beat us, their defence better be prepared to pitch a shut out.

For sure. I don't think roster is an issue at all this week no matter what. The only thing that beats us this week is ourselves.

Our secondary has been phenomenal this year but not too many teams win consistently with a run first approach.

Or he is waiting to see if there are consequences for the Lions epic fail this season. Good chance some people walk the plank.

Buck needs to come up with a master class game plan like he did this week. If he does that this game is over at half time. No weather factor to worry about this will all come down to game plan and execution. No way that Arbuckle puts up a ton of points on this defence. We can be methodical and just execute well for an easy win. Rider fans will say that's what we thought but the difference is our defence is the legit best in the league not overhyped like theirs.

Agreed. The key to us scoring will be our OL vs their DL..or scheme that makes up for the advantage they have in that match up. It's my one area of concern outside of execution.

We better have a better protection/play scheme than 2 weeks ago or this game will be a 12-11 affair.
