Watch 2 seconds of Lapo on YouTube and learn more about a play than Suitor gives you in a whole game.

[rebusrankin]

Lapo should take over for Suitor as lead colour guy and TSN should have him produce more content like this.

He repeatedly paraphrased a quote that we could all read….incorrectly. 
Absolutely insane.

I mean those 2 guys were so fortunate to have such wisdom from Harris to learn from. Meanwhile, their HS coaches already taught them that. Suitor is just insufferable.

Apparently there were Bomber fans involved in that incident who provoked that reaction. No class on either side.

Was just gonna say...fans pay..they can yip yap all they want ...within reason...as a pro...you are taught...well should be to ignore and not react...I've been on teams where engagement with fans was a team fine...Rider culture is as it was...still trashy

[captaincanuck12]

Well it's 48 hours since we ended another Rider season.  As satisfying as it is, let's no longer talk about them. 

It's time to focus on some unfinished business against the Argos.  Looking forward to Sunday!

[Tracker]

Ah yes, the Big Game. We ought to win convincingly but this is the CFL- no lead is safe and weird things happen every week. That's why we watch with bated breath.

I thought I saw someone mentioned on here that a Rider had flipped the bird.

Here you go.....

 

Just curious... has any Player under OSH done anything like that?

[Noeller]

Have a friend that (quite unfortunately) has to live in Regina for work. She was out at Leopold's on Sunday night and said about half the Riders roster was in there "drowning their sorrows" (in her words)... A very somber crowd, apparently.

I don’t understand the hate for the TSN crew.  I always thought they do a pretty good job.   Could be a lot worse. Every team has a group of fans that are convinced the broadcast crew hates their team.   I really don’t see it that badly as it’s made out all the time.    Some people are just so negative, and might want to think for a bit about something else to direct their energy towards.  

Yes keep complaining and TSN will bring back Rod Black....remember it could always be worse...

Lol oh I'm sure that they were "involved"...

[Noeller]

Re: TSN... They desperately need Derek Taylor and should be leaving a blank cheque for him. 

[Booch]

I'd take black over suitor

Not that it’s the same. But Lucky did get in some hot water about offering that Bomber fan a beer for getting into a fight at Labour Day. But to my recollection I have never heard of a player physically acting out to fans under O’Shea.

As well they should be. This was probably their best shot. They overachieved based on start of year expectations but underacheived in being a 9 win team with a TO ratio you'd expect a 14 win team to have. This reeks of a situation where they think they are a piece or two away, but if they run back Harris at 39 he's more likely than not to transform into a pumpkin and they'll get a harsh dose of reality when they aren't producing 4 TOs a game (even though this season all they could really do was transform those into punts).

[Mark H.]

TSN: it's ok for the most part. But the absolute insistence of sticking to the script, no matter what happens on the field, can be maddening.

See the Forde Brothers game as a prime example.

Well and in that scenario what's the new information they gave him?  It's catch or no catch.  Not some complicated call.

I actually think the correct thing was done here. They told Mace that the command centre had already reviewed the play and confirmed no catch, The refs knew that but Mace had no way of knowing before he threw the flag. If you rewatch the game on TV you can hear Kroeker telling him.

No excuse. As a paid professional you should expect a rough ride on the road from the fans. PERIOD.

In an interview the next after the last game, Trevor Harris said, in a pleading way, that he would REALLY like to return as the Rider pivot. No athlete likes to admit /she doesn't have it any more, and Harris was well-paid, probably much better than he can expect to earn otherwise post-football,
