If we lose Saturday, we'll have lost to a terrible football team and we'll need to improve on it going forward. PS - his record as a starter is 18-15, I know math isn't a strong suit over there but 15 is not "one hell of a lot more" than 18. It's actually less. You seen things in a less than objective way, perhaps so do I. Myself, I see this years Bombers team the same way I've seen them the last 26 years. Is what it is

Who wins this week? I don't know because this is all on paper but if you look at facts it's not even close. The Classic and SPuDS 2
Booch Posted June 29, 2017 Report Posted June 29, 2017 You lucked out beating Winnipeg in a Grey Cup when our starter was hurt and replays show that the 2 interceptions were bad calls...calls that led to u winning...and are suffering now for the other grey cup you won due to poor management...go green If you guys continue to suck are u all going to jump off the bandwagon and desert the team...and have to have a 3rd telethon to save it?..and sell worthless stock/share things? SPuDS, JCon, The Classic and 1 other 4
Booch Posted June 29, 2017 Report Posted June 29, 2017 AND why no rebuttal on the Nichols win loss record??...you busy creating more bogus stats? SPuDS and The Classic 2
Mosaic Posted June 29, 2017 Report Posted June 29, 2017 2 minutes ago, Mike said: So, you see them based on history instead of present day reality. Smart. Nope, I see their roster as having many holes like in previous seasons, especially at crucial places like receiver, LB, Canadian OLine depth, marginal starting QB, secondary, etc. It'll be interesting to see if Okapoluga performs how most former CFL players play after returning from the NFL. Saturday will be fun Mike, enjoy that atmosphere and look around and admire how things are supposed to be built. No hard hat required.

I think he might get a lot more than that. Hope they can get Harris and Flandersessesss in at the same time against an inexperienced middle linebacker. Looking forward to some forty yard runs by those two. Edited June 29, 2017 by Mark F

Nope, this generation of Riders fans don't abandon their team. Last 2 seasons we had poor teams yet still lead the league in attendance last year, and will again this year by a large margin. Makes one wonder why there are thousands of empty seats at IGF every game when your team was improved last season?

Good luck with that. And if Jones does start him over Francis it truly shows how clueless he is. either way.. woo hoo, this is gonna be an interesting thing to behold. The Classic and Mark F 2

The Classic Posted June 29, 2017 Report Posted June 29, 2017 I don't post much (career lurker/post liker), but I must say, I LOVE the Regina hate. Ashamed to admit I live in Regina... which means I suffer through the constant garbage taunts from rider fans who can't name 3 players currently on the team. Even the better media here are unabashedly ignorant and full on deluded homers and managing to find decent CFL talk anywhere is next to impossible. I could go on for a few pages about everything that's wrong with rider fans and the province but I won't for brevity's sake. Please carry on with the excellent rider fan crushing.

I dunno...seen many empty seats there too last year...and in Winnipeg probably most those seats were vacated by the thousands at the rum hut Well no generation of bomber fan abandoned there team..so guys we are better fans...no?

Taynted_Fayth Posted June 29, 2017 Report Posted June 29, 2017 Here's a fun fact, Nichols has never lost to the Riders. I asked this question earlier on FB but I just looked up all of Nichols games vs the Riders since 2012 (both with Winnipeg and Edmonton) he was 2-0 with edmonton and so far 3-0 with the bombers (plus 1 tie in preseason) SPuDS, Atomic, Mark F and 2 others 5
