First week of fall GDT: non-Bomber bye week games

[Eternal optimist]

Silly Rider fans not understanding math.... Them beating BC actually favours us in the standings, since we hold the season series against the 'Riders. Puts BC further in the rear view mirror for us. That Oct 01 game and the rematch are massive for playoff implications for us. Even a split would be massive.

If we go 4-3 the rest of the way the Riders have to go 5-2 with 5 road games left

First is out of reach. Unless ZC were to get hurt and McGuire isn’t that good, you should cruise to first.

Cody Fajardo is 2 and 4 against Winnipeg with three straight losses and no td passes or any tds at all in the last three games. 2 td passes and 8 interceptions in those games.

I don't think Fajardo has even finished the last 2 games in Winnipeg.

Disappointed in the lack of Fajina nicknames. Do better, board!

Yes, but Shaq Evans. Game, set, match.  

 

But as per Glenn Suitor they have the ultimate weapon in Kian Schaffer-Baker.  Did you know if you say his name 20 times per broadcast that it automatically makes him the top receiver in the league?

Suitor aside, the kids played great.

His 34 yards receiving last game was amazing and fantastic!  Future HOF!

It's a matter of time until Suitor brings back some Fantuz comparisons.

I thought it was Fa-J-J, because all the melons want to... whoa- gotta keep it "G"

 

Well, my phone always autocorrects "Fajardo" to "Fajita" so that how I refer to him as.

My god the Riders have the most Inspector Gadget kinda luck. They've had no business having winning records the last 2 years save for dumb matchup luck gifting them wins

Acceptance is a huge step. Kudos.

Why on earth do people come on here trying to convince us that the 4 stripes are great team and match up well with us, short term memory loss so I will enlighten all of them. Labour day 8 points, Banjo bowl 9 points, them beating other teams in the CFL means nothing to me

Math appears to only one of a great many things Rider fans do not understand. Like personal hygiene, drunk driving laws, inbreeding and so forth.

No you see the narrative is that the Bombers haven't had any injuries this year. 

Because we have depth and can win when guys are out, a foreign concept to a team like the riders, the Bombers just haven't missed anyone important. 

Honestly if we even had stove back, just the one guy who has missed every game but the first one, the riders are so much less dangerous to the Bombers. His ability to disrupt a run game and then it's all on fajardos noodle arm.

Kinda comical how people go on about how healthy the bombers have been and thats why they have done so well...Lat I checked Harris and Adams didnt start the season..,Grant played 1 game...Demski missed 2....Wilson yet to play...his replacement went out after 1 game..Maston out for year....Johnson went out after 1 game...plus....we had to replace Sayles and Rose....and Medlock and the Jeff's were playing knicked up at start of season....yup...we been injury free and havn't had to dip into depth....almost comical....not our fault our depth pieces look like starters...sheeesh

IDK about that- @greenrider55 has been pretty consistent in his presence and he hasn't been a ****** at all- actually pretty pleasant.

Damn you @wbbfan you are making me defend a riderfan!  

46 posts in 3 ish years. 1/4 of his posts have been this weekend in this thread. mia 2 weeks then back with a similar flurry over 2 days. Almost all his posts are in our GDTs and its talking about the riders. I certainly wouldnt say thats a consistent presence. 

 If any thing id say you got him and foxcreek swapped. Hes been consistent, respectful to the champs and mostly pleasant for a 4 stripe.

Actually, I think the riders would have to go 6-1... since the Bombers hold the tie-breaker... the riders need to outright win in the standings...

You're trash... Your team is trash. Whether we play at IGF East or IGF West, we're gonna shut you the **** up again and again and again.... Go. The ****. Away. 

you can't call riderfans an echo-chamber who shouts down any contrarian... and then post this...

(well, I guess you can do whatever you want... it's just hypocritical  )

Secretly cheering for the Riders eh?!?!

LOL... I had a friend once tell me... "I've never seen someone hate a sports teams as much as you hate the riders" 😂

I hate them... I just don't count them out until they've lost...
