Damn near more entertaining than the game itself.

On Riderfans they claim that the stadium piped in the crowd noise... lol

Why bother listening to that biased / arrogant / classless fan base.  It's not worth your time.

Three critical second down plays in the first half with the game still completely in doubt, Streveler converts them all with gutsy power running.

If a Judge gets trucked on a Streveler run, does it make a sound?

Yes. That sound is fans cheering at IGF... which is also louder than New Mosaic.

We are just way louder and they need a reason.

[White Out]

Packing my suitcase. It was an absolute pleasure, Winnipeg. Always my home.

GO BLUE 

[Rod Black]

Streveler run to the twelve in the 2nd. Can’t recall ever seeing a QB run over, around, through and breaking tackles like that. 

First and second drives looked like men playing boys. Awesome. 

[HardCoreBlue]

Never looked back after the opening two plays (flag and sack) of the game.

great fake, plus the streveller runs up the middle probably helped this play.

Peterman seems to find open spots. one of my favourite bombers.

thanks dod.

1. Excellent job as per usual by DoD.

2. I know Riderfans don't remember but when TSN tested the noise levels between IGF and New Mosaic, we won.

I sat in the same spot in both stadiums on back to back weeks. IGF is undoubtedly louder.

Rider fans crying about the Bombers piping In crowd noise. What a bunch of dumbasses

Just noticed now Willie was unblocked that play you think he would be the one guy you would get a hat on.

The Riders OL was absolute crap both games against us, it is surprising that fajardo didn't leave in a body bag the amount of hits he took cause no one could block for him.

their self proclaimed "best" oline in the league in 3 games against top defenses (us and Cgy) has given up 15 sacks...and countless pressures...and ran for an average of 69 yards a game....very dominant oline play

Stop trying to inject logic and facts in to an argument with a Rider fan. We appreciate the effort but it is completely lost on the target.
