That's my understanding. I would also imagine that MOS is on the bottom have of HCs, given his lack of experience and success (relative to others).

I believe his stock has risen substantially seeing his record of the past 3 seasons. He would have to be closer to one of the highest paid head coaches in a new contract.  He'd be a sought after HC if he left after this season. I think a new contract will reflect that.

My mom went into the bomber store years ago to buy me a jersey and Moreno was in there.  She met him and said he was a good looking fella so she bought me his jersey.  So pretty much I got his jersey

Some interesting bickering on Riderfans, with the delusional rabid fans claiming that this was no big deal, that the Riders will be better off, that Jones walked on water but will be easy to replace etc.

Defending Jones is still official policy of the Gatekeepers over there. Hard to admit you've been screwed and abandoned I guess.  Thought there would be cracks by now. But this won't last.

There are or rather have been a surprising number of Rider fans critical of Jones but they are threatened, suspended and/or turfed. Dissension is not to be tolerated.

The mods and their handpicked half a dozen internet tuff guys, bully every member over there into submission. Support their views or face the ban hammer. I have never seen such disrespect and abuse of a forum by it's own moderators in any forum...anywhere. CRF is just completely blinded by the traffic it creates. Doesn't care that most of his forum members lost loyalty to his forum. Somebody will start a rival Rider forum someday and will take a ton of his active members with them to get away form the likes of Rider Stronson, BSD, VoR, and the other bullies. When they all leave the clique will eat it's own.

When I was a member there a couple years ago, they would constantly try goad me into banning offences that violated their own code of conduct....and it was the mods doing it.

Migs attempting to start his own forum isn't exactly a step up. Also, different time. Over the past 3 years a lot of sentiment has changed over at Riderfans because of the shenanigans of the Jonestown Fort defence. Many quality members were squashed over there for failing to toe the line, and there are a ton of members over there that are not to happy about it. When I was over there, before the site crash, I used to get PMs from many members of the forum apologizing for the behavior of some of the more prominent members.

I was on a bomber board that was just like that.  Am I ever glad I found this Bomber board.

No...it was not just like that. I disagree with your banning over there, but you didn't help yourself out either.

Expand  

I was just being honest and discussing things...... I suppose the similarities fir me between the two boards,  are the way the mods handled it.

To bad for Faith, I'm assuming (big time) that he isn't recovering well from that injury. Wouldn't be surprised if this is the last we hear from him. Burnett is likely done as well.

If you can’t make it on Montreal your professional football career is probably over.

I say we start a riders board! And then let it be one bad ass free for all. 


And then use the advertising revenue to buy a badass sign right outside of Mosaic.

 

And then troll the **** out of all of Saskatchewan.

 

Sorry, but I'm cruel. :)

Being cruel means you never have to say you're sorry.

It's only a handful. There are many who are good to chat with. The ones yelling troll every chance they get are to be avoided. 

How long is your ban for? ðŸ˜‹
