The gossip in the Stampeders camp right now is that they think the Bombers are the team to beat this year .... the number two rank in the CFL

... and the Riders will be the laughingstocks, the clear favourites to to mock ... like usual

So let me get this straight... Ripper says LeFevour is proven to be bad.  However on only a few weeks notice he managed 330 yards and four TDs against us.

Ripper also says Nichols only looked good because of our awesome defense and essentially  Nichols only put up numbers because of the D.

I love Rider logic....

Meanwhile, in the rectangle province:

As per usual Rider fans are planning their Grey Cup parade route in June. Unfortunately for them, they always forget the Grey Cup is played at the end of November & not now.

Do you honestly think we don't know what we have in Glenn? The question is can we win games with him at qb. We can and will. Kevin Glenn is not anyone's first choice including ours. He signed the contract that DD wouldn't, to be the starter and move to backup later on, which he will do

The way many Rider fans are talking? No I dont think they know anymore. They have bought into Jones so strongly and blindly

LOL after all that talk at RF about how we overpaid Ekakitie, they gave Judge $1500 less in guaranteed money this season.

And misses a week of training camp....

it could still be another 2 weeks before he's in regina due to his finals

[Taynted_Fayth]

apparently Holley got seriously hurt today, intial thoughts are he might have broke something in his arm.  Gotta say,  for the potential the Riders receivers have,  they sure are injury prone

If you want to argue my posts. Please argue them on what I have actually said. I never said Nichols only looked good because of the defense. I said he gets too much credit. There is a difference there. As far as Lefevour, the guy is brutal. to say otherwise is total blind blue goggles talking. Been with 4 or 5 teams, has thrown more picks than td's in his career. Noodle arm, all he does is run around.  You guys got something good going with Nichols and Davis, but please don't defend signing Levefour because that is over the top IMO

The guys pushing that talking point the most have gone missing in that thread now that Judge's contract details are out.

Yeah it's true, our possible #3 QB has been with 4 teams.  How many has your starter been with?

6 or 7 at least. Not a big Glenn fan myself but 48k passing yards says he can at least play in the league

[Mike]

I like Kevin Glenn but he's not going to give the Riders more than 7 wins.

Playing for 2 decades will do that

And here I was about to go buy a retro 2016 Gurley bomber jersey. now I just wanna go up to him and... 

As I demand satisfaction

[bigg jay]

Meh.  I was hoping for more from him but whatever.  He chose to join a team late in the season that he admittedly had no connection with over a team who's qb he had success with.  That mistake is on him.

I don't really see the big deal. What he said doesn't seem to be untrue. If we sold him on the role he claims we did (which would make sense, since that's what he excels at) then we certainly didn't follow through on our end.
