Booch

yeah he is fast..when he hits it and doesn't jibber jabber and ***** foot around...he gets a crease and takes it...he can go to the house at any point on field...

Yeah forgot about that one too...I would have taken the BC safety as well ahead of anyone...

I think Strev knows that, and I also believe he isn't going to explore going anywhere else to be honest...this team (players) already respects the hell out of him and will go through a wall for him...as he would for them, and even though he has been on again off again starter, and still a work in progress...everyone in the huddle on both sides of the ball know this is his team...he solidified that in the WSF....

as well as their O-line..How Dan Clarke got the all star nod is baffling...he is the most nonathletic and immobile center in the league and gets turn stilled more than anyone...that one really threw me for a loop...and it's not just a Rider hate thing....he's brutal Watch him exclusively in the WF and watch him bumble and stumble around out there...if getting in the way of things and falling down and tripping when in the second level constitutes being an all-star then yeah he nails it...but man o man

I agree...if we go outside the org thats where i set my sights...and I'd lean to Massoli...Resign Strev who basically gets to start season you would think as he prob won't be a legit 100 percent to start season.. and you can park his SMS hit on the 6 game...Gives Strev a chance to take reigns and show he has progressed more, and if he hasn't really yet you have Massoli to take over at some point and have a nice QB combo again... Almost certain as well that if the league sticks with the 2 rostered QB rule that there will be some type of concession for a 3rd stringer on roster somehow as you cant expect teams to only have 2 guys

maybe he will take his goofy surf board to the ball...havn't seen much of it the last half of the season.....again

found it interesting..and funny that every time a play failed for them you would see Bo look around for a flag...hooping dearly and it never materialized for him

Exactly...and proven versus Calgary..Defense was influenced by Harris fake on Demski TD, And the possibilty Strev kept it, and we saw the result...same with his 24 yard run for TD in fourth..CGY had to basically pick the poison on staying with Streveler, or Harris on the outside pitch....and at times with either of those guys, they don't go down easy, and rarely at first contact and takes a concerted multiple guy effort..so even if they pick the right guy, it's usually after netting positive yardage

pretty sure Osh won't let over confidence and cockiness creep into things...This team doesn't seem like a group to do that...thee doesn't seem to be any one individual who thinks they are above the team here, and if one emerged then the leaders would nip that in the bud...I think Gaitor's dismissal is an example of that..regardless of the outcome I think it's gonna be the best game of the play-ffs to watch....

they have electricity..runing water in most venues and streets are paved

and his higher tackle total is because teams run at him..or to his side...not due to his pursuit and attention to detail in containing the run...I bet he is a non factor in the game and you don't hear his name save for an off-side or a RTP passer call

I don't see that defense as that good...highly overrated if you ask me

End rusher..they have one..Leonard is average at best Sacks are nice on the stat line..but we were right on their heals in sacks...but we pressure more to get picks...most in league..extremely more beneficial in the grand scheme of things

hahah...i don't hate the riders....just that laughable fan base And I cheer for the Lions and want to see them succeeed ....except when they play Winnipeg

he is just doing...how do they put it over there??..??...ahh yes "nut licking' to stay in the good books hahaha

the last 3 playoff years games involving Wpg have brought in over 1 million viewers....but apparently Rider games fuel the league according to...Rider fans...even the play-off year we both played we drew over a million and they didn't...guess that shoots another one of their theories down eh?

Well let me see...we lead the league in rushing...again...and almost set the all-time record for least rushing yards allowed per game over course of a season...Jefferson is MODP in West and certainly the league this year...Bryant is West Divison Most Outstanding O-lineman...for 3rd straight year and should win it again for 3rd straight in league...If anyone says that Winnipeg doesn't hold advantage there then they are just utter fools and obviously Rider fans....coincidentally utter fool and Rider fan goes hand in hand

YES...its still in my repertoire as well...that 4th quarter was as close to total line domination that you will see...I expect 4 quarters of that on Sunday

Neufeld as well was key on that pull...after the first few games getting back up to game speed he has been more than solid and at the right time too...Images of him steam rolling Rider dlineman in last years WSF bouncing around in my head and taking Judge 15 yards down the fteld then tossing him down like a kid and calling him a biatch never gets old

and just imagine being on the filed and involved in it...TV gives no justice to the speed of the game one bit. Makes me shake my ead sometimes when fans say "why didn't he throw it here"..or "didn't he see that guy there"...**** moves so fast and furiously at times that you don't have a nanosecond to look ..see..or decide...thats why experience is so key and reps..reps..reps make a guy good...you react and instructively do things without thinking or deciding which 90 percent of the time is the difference between success and failure in a play

awesome...thiings you don't see when not at the game...or at least i didnt notice it on TV Just like at Banjo Bowl..they didn't show it on TV but after one TD he grabbed a flag from one of the flag dudes and proceeded to jam it into the turf..if it was a natural field it would have stuck in the ground...

I post on both...enjoy both equally and don't really notice a real difference...the one thing that I notice at the other forum is that there are more fans there who are just that fans...and don't have extensive football knowledge or back ground in it, but are hard core fans, and they use the forum as an avenue to learn and educate themselves, and seem appreciative for it Here you have some savy vets of the game in varying degrees, which leads to a bit more intense and at times heated discussion, and a bit more mud slinging, but I find that fun and entertaining and rarely offensive in any way...if yiou can dish it...you gotta be able and expect to take it right back

Well if he was bringing up schemes with Beneviedes he used pre-game and how he hated what he did against him, pretty certain he still remembers what Sask was doing the past 2 years..and this could be integral in the game..

Love me some Hardrick! Saw Drew on Monday...didn't see no apparent injury issue with him

This West final is shaping up into a similar situation as last years West Semi when we went into Sask and ran for 201 yards and held a 5 min T.O.P advantage. But I think this year this team is better built for this playoff style...Harris is not as banged up..Nichols was playing with a couple ailments, and our defense wasn't as good as this year, and we didn't have Jefferson which will be huge I'd be shocked if we didn't roll up the same amount of rushing yards, if not more as going in this year we have a motivated QB whom I am certain wants to stick it to the Rider's and his ability to push the ball downfield will open up more running lanes, and once the ground and pound gets going in a game it is really hard to stop it and it's really demoralizing on a defense.. We are as healthy as you could want, save for Strev's foot but that didn't seem to stop him, almost spurned him on even more, so if the guys lay it all on the line we win...because across the board there is more talent (and depth) wearing blue than Green and thats not just looking through blue glasses..anyone who thinks otherwise isn't a very good judge of talent
