Alright, I'll bite... sure they got further than us, but I would argue we also were eliminated by a much better team, whilst they played the Redblacks to get where they were, we played the Eskies. As for showing class, respect is earned, not given... I understand your logic of taking the high road, but these idiots had anointed their team as holier-than-thou and destined to win the Grey Cup despite their undisciplined play throughout the season. Not only that, they got absolutely stomped in the season finale by the same team that eliminated us. Misery loves company Rider fans!

The better team in the play offs, is the one that wins. That simple. 

Respect is earned, class is learned. Its not a point of the rider fans earning our respect. That wont ever happen. Its a matter of us being better then what we point fingers at rather then dropping to that level.

I went in expecting a Rider win and to lessen the pain I convinced myself I wanted to see Glenn get a ring. 

This is much better.

You really dont understand the rivalry do you?

Riders got what their arrogance and dishonesty deserved. In the end, they beat a poor team and lost to a mediocre one.

Well Kevin Glenn did his part and didn't let us down.

The Riders are a .500 team and proved it today. They won last week against a .500(ish) team then lost today to a .500 team. They had no real chance to win it all and that was put to rest today.

Thank God, at least the Grey Cup is one I can watch now.

 

I think I hope Toronto wins it, esp if it's them vs Edmonton.  It'd be a good welcome home for Trestman and Ricky Ray getting one more cup for his career which given his injuries may not be lasting much longer.

I cant cheer for Toronto ever...

I'm not going to let you spoil this mood.

Oh man I was scared the Riders were going to pull out a fluke win. 

 

Im happy that all is well.

You won't find too much teeth mashing over there. We still went farther than any of us expected. It was certainly a disappointing game filled with inexcusable mistakes, but we are still proud of the boys. For the first time in 3-4 years, we played meaningful games, and it should only get better from here. I'll be patiently waiting for next season.

Nope. Calgary or Edmonton anyday... Ill take any Western team winning minus Sask over an Eastern team. 

Why should i cheer for the Argos? So they can celebrate in front of 100s of people?

Meh, Bluto seems like a cool guy, Eskies knocked us out, and Calgary is insufferably full of themselves. I think I'm in the majority when I say once the Bombers were out of the running, everyone wants someone other than SSK to win. Doesn't matter who, just not them...

First thing I found when I went on that site was, a thread with a bunch of whining idiots complaining about a suplex being a penalty, and Glenn's chest being grazed by a hand not being a RTP call. Not only that, but the same posters admitted that they didn't think it should be a penalty but they've seen it called before so it is a penalty today.

It's hard to mash teeth when you don't have any!

Riders fans realized today what we realized last week, that there team was just not good enough, that being said I think our future looks brighter than theirs.

Pretty much how I feel. I like Ray and Trestman, no Argos particularly annoy me.

I'm having a harder time deciding who to root for in the battle of Alberta though.

For that team to be any good, they'll have to use their third consecutive different starting QB.

I hate every ******* team and their fan base but there's a special place in hell for the people from the Gap who wear their green **** to every event in every venue on the planet. They're among the worst organisms in our universe. Worse than cockroaches. Stamps/fLames "fans" are gaining on em but not at that level...
