I have no idea why the Riders' team I watched today couldn't beat Edmonton or B.C. quite handily. Number one - they have a front 4 that gets after the QB. Reilly is clearly banged up for the Esks and B.C. has to start Jennings Ripper and 3rd & 1 2

I would have gone insane by now without some form of faith. Our offence scares me. If our D can turn in that kind of effort every game then I think our only hope is to pull off a Tom Burgess type Grey Cup win like in 1990. Great D, and an O that doesn't do much, but also doesn't make mistakes and cost us games. Danny McManus to Rick House ... TD!
SpeedFlex27 Posted October 1, 2018 Report Posted October 1, 2018 Sigh. I still remember the day that Cal Murphy signed Matt Dunigan.

We have lost 5 out of the last 6 visits to Montreal. The truth is the stats were really ugly in this game. It was a lot closer than it should have been score wise. I'll take it and be happy. I'm just of sick of hearing how we got lucky or someone gave it to us. We won 6 out of our last 7. We are getting it done. Doesn't mean anything but some people need to open their eyes and just call a spade a spade. I was stunned to see the Bombers pound the Esks like that, no one saw that coming. But I am not saying you got lucky, full credit for the win Mark H. 1

I'm old enough to have watched some Rider teams so bad that all we had to cheer for was other people losing. Blah blah blah.... Nah highlight of the season for me is when the play offs come- the Bombers will walk into new toilet stadium and punch the riders in the mouth, take their lunch money and move on to Calgary. riders will be one and done- that's what happens with smoke and mirrors with a dash **** tonne of luck. Then i will taunt people on riders fans, drink their tears, get temporarily banned (because rf can dish it out, but can't take it- its a little thinskinned there) and not visit the site till next year (because riders will be more insignificant at that point). 10 minutes ago, Mark H. said: Is that insight?

As a Rider fan you're marginally acceptable here but your fanbase is insufferable when your team wins. No quarter drawn & no quarter given from us here. I enjoy a Rider loss as much as I enjoy a Bomber win. Edited October 1, 2018 by SpeedFlex27 Tracker 1

We have won a cup since then, I don't think anyone here would view anything as a rematch. What's the asterisk for? Glenn being hurt. Always found it funny that no one here ever has anything nice to say about Glenn, but some fans like you think you would have won had he played. I do understand feeling burned in the big game, but as time passes you realize you can't go back and change history. Things happen the way they are supposed to, whether we like it or not
