Your buddy is part of the problem now too.

What's your point? The Riders are bringing Lancaster in with their time machine?

The advantage to the Riders LBer corps because they rotate more mediocre players through during the game? It makes zero sense. Let's just discount MOP level play from Bighill, all star level play from Santos Knox and give the edge to a Rider LBer crew anchored by Sam Hurl with a couple of hobos beside him. Literally the stupidest thing I have read and just kills the credibility of an otherwise good break down. Bombers LBer crew is vastly superior to the Riders....it isn't even comparable. I am gobsmacked that a professional CFL journalist would even think they were comparable let alone superior to ours.

I agree. However, it is unfortunate that they didn't move the Riders to Saskatoon and get it out of the butt hole that is Regina. Saskatoon is an infinitely nicer city.

Thank you for the glory hole report. Was he out there throwing darts?

Are you related to the Blacksmith's?

With the exception of Zac Collaros post 2015 of course.

They ban you for respectfully talking football, even though your opinion was unpopular and you were semi trolling at times, but keep a knob like Gbill who is schizo and throws a tantrum anytime anyone disagrees with him. Makes no sense.

I was trim. Deal with it. lol Of course I was overweight at 370, but I did have a lot of muscle mass. It wasn't all flab. It was more like a powerlifter 370 physique. I was an active 370 lber.

I hear ya. When I was in my 20's I was 6'6" and around 245 lbs. In my 30's I got as high as 370lbs although it was a fairly trim 370 I still got lots of stares and commentary from people. "Hide the buffet" and such comments were meant to be good natured ribbing from friends but it kind of sucked. The last few years I have been exercising and lifting weights a lot more and have trimmed down to a reasonable 260 lbs. I could probably get lower but I do not overly watch my diet so this is probably as good as it gets. I know the feeling of being overweight, how easy it can happen, and how tough it is to lose excess weight. It's not a joke for those that know this.

Put Gbill, PJ, and Aards on this board and see what would happen to it.

Not everyone....but there are a few.

Not all of them...but that was a doozy.

Adams is not going to light it up against Calgary, and that's pretty much the only chance he's got.

Why go through all the trouble? Because under contract he is tradable to a team desperate for QB help at a King's ransom. He was on their neg list and suddenly became a very important roster management chip even without playing. Hamilton got a fantastic return on him, and that makes him worth the trouble of signing.

Gary Etcheverry and Marcel Bellefeuille would like to point out that MOS is not as loyal to underperformers as many would like to believe.

We won the season series against Edmonton last year but you are right about Calgary.

You are right that they didn't really beat anyone, teams played down to their level and they took advantage for two wins. However, both games were absolutely horrid football by the Riders. With the cream puff schedule coming out of the gate they needed to capitalize with at the very minimum 3 out of 4 games. With only 6 home games remaining and a long stretch of West games in the back half of the season, even at 2and2 the Riders have painted themselves into the corner. The only West team they may win a game against is BC right now. Collaros is a bust, that quite frankly should probably retire and won't last 2 games when he comes back, and Bridge and Watford are just not good. Couple that with an awful OL and this is going to be a long season. Probably have a lot of close games because of a first rate D but the scores won't be indicative of the non compete level of the team.

I think MOS will have his locker room as long as he wants it. Players love MOS. You want to lose a room, have management meddle in coaching decisions.

You guys should be 1-3. You had no business winning that game last week and defences rarely create win streaks by themselves. Your offence is an abomination. Your team looks exactly like the 2014 Bombers right now. Bridge=Justin Goltz

And the Bombers haven't lost to a pitiful Als team or have an offence that is absolutely horrid. Whether or not anyone likes it, the CFL is an offensive driven league. The RIders have not shown they can produce enough offence to win consistently. Defence will win you championships in November, but they won't get you into the playoffs when the weather is good.

Not their ultra bad OL or well below average QBing? Sorry but the Riders are right there with the Als as the two teams I would pick least likely to turn it around this season. It's tough to fix a bad OL during the season. I can see the RIders defence winning them a few games that they don't deserve but they will finish well below .500. It's not sustainable to keep your defence on the field as much as both these teams are. They will wear out and injuries will pile up.

Jones coached a great game, but Hamilton playing max pro all game took the heat off the Riders awful secondary and allowed the Riders to contain Masoli. Jones gave everyone a blueprint on how to beat Hamilton but he won't have that luxury against any other teams in the CFL.

" I like the cut of your jib...want a coaching job with the Riders" signed, Chris Jones

Yes....scrap heaping guys like Bighill, Dressler, Darvin Adams...what are we thinking? LOL. Good to see you in good humor about this LG...him not coming back to the Leos has gotta suck for you guys.
