Apologies

[AtlanticRiderFan]

Hey guys.

I apologize for the arguments that were started from my post in the chat about the ref. It was not my intention for this to happen. I also probably should have ignored the comments directed towards me. Very sorry once again.

I hope we can forget this in the future and have fun.

Peace.

Dude, it's okay. Things can get heated in the chat room during a game. It's all good as far as I'm concerned.

You're a ******* rider fan, what the **** do you expect to happen when you're hanging out with a bunch of Bomber fans? Worse you're a patronizing rider fan who is trying to get along with everyone, it's annoying as all hell. I'd rather deal with trolls than people who patronize us as a fanbase. It's quite frankly an insult and represent everything that is wrong with that fanbase. 

[AtlanticRiderFan]

Ouch, not a great response by some people. To each in their own I guess, haha.

[FrostyWinnipeg]

Apology accepted. Now Noellers comments about the Sun Blog people coming over....

[17to85]

Tell me something, how old are you? How long have you been a rider fan? I think that would answer a lot of questions. 

[AtlanticRiderFan]

Not going to say my age yet, but I've cheered for the Riders as long as I have lived.

Yeah, what's that all about? I would like to know who he is referring to.

Yeah but that's the real key there, and because I feel like being pedantic here you cna't have cheered for the riders as long as you've lived, infants have no concept of that.

Well yeah. I have never cheered for another team though.

 

Ok, I guess I will say. I'm 14.

[17to85]

god I hope you're joking

[AtlanticRiderFan]

Exactly why I didn't want to tell you, because that would be your response. Why exactly does it matter to you?

[17to85]

Because I want perspective after some of the condescending crap you've said. I already had you pegged as a young and new fan who probably doesn't remember the Riders being the CFL punchline. One of those annoying type who joined the bandwagon post 2003 when it really started to fill up after TSN started their nonsense about Rider fans being so awesome. I have nothing but respect for long time Rider fans, the ones who actually stuck through the lean years, those are good fans, the people who jumped on the bandwagon after the team started to improve though? Those guys aren't the best anything they're just bandwagon jumpers. Most of the people who post here are old enough to remember when the Riders couldn't win for ****. We don't need some Johnny come lately rider fan telling us how to deal with bad seasons, we've been there done that and come through it. All those years without a grey cup weren't all bad teams, there were some down right dominant teams in there they just didn't win that last game.

I never bandwagoned the Riders. I cheer for them because I live in Saskatchewan. I don't care if they finish 3-15 every year. I'm a Rider fan.

 

And as for the bolded part, when did I EVER do this? I've hardly talked about last season even. All you are trying to do is to get me to leave the forum.

 

I've treated you guys pretty well. I easily could have went on a troll spree, but I respect the other fanbases, so I choose not to.

So, the guy's a Rider fan. As long as Duressler is respectful & I think he has then what's the problem? I don't think there's anything wrong with fans from other teams joining here. Notice Migs never sets foot in here because he'd be eaten alive if he trolled. He knows about this place too.

[17to85]

no not in so many words but the implication was there, trying to pick up the poor down trodden bomber fans spirits etc etc. acting like the superior rider fan. Honestly if you are 14 it's easier to tolerate, you were just unfortunate to be raised in that propaganda and actually believe it. Here's a tip though, as I said before, most of the people who post here have been fans of the CFL for a long time, the new rider fans are annoying and you are never going to be liked no matter how courteous you try to be, You'd have been better off just trolling at least there'd be a chance to earn respect. Young posters trying to ingratiate themselves though? No chance. Lots of kids are too young to know what they don't know.

It's not that he's a rider fan, it's that he's an annoying rider fan. there's a big difference. you come in here with that attitude that the rider fans are the best fans ever just because TSN said so it's not going to fly.

Duressler47 really hasn't been that bad.  Does he get the odd dig in, sure, but what do you really expect.  As long as it is done in good taste and not just to stir thing up.   It isn't always easy posting on another fan base's forum, especially when its a rivalry like there is between Saskatchewan and Winnipeg.  He has been pretty gracious taking the digs tossed back at him, which is really what he should somewhat expect coming here.

 

And you can't really fault the kid for being born after the Riders sucked.

 

If anything, it is good to see the younger / next generation continuing fan interest in the CFL ... whether they are Rider fans or not.  A rider fan coming here to post, who isn't here to just troll, just proves he is a fan of the CFL just as much as the Riders.

I have never insinuated that the Riders have the best fans. That's not for me to judge. I'm not a fan of the other teams, so I would have no clue what they're like.

All I know is that Toronto does NOT have the best fans .

[17to85]

But that's a bullshit attitude too. The fans the Argos do have are as good as any. It's easy to be a Rider fan or a Bomber fan, it's not so easy to be an Argo fan, they put up with a lot of **** to be fans of that team.

Children should be seen and not heard. Until they understand the world they need to keep their eyes and ears open and learn something of the world.

I never got that impression of Duressler... I can tell a condescending Rider troll. Migs. He always says **** then hides behind forum rules saying he did nothing wrong. He's a coward. And an @$$****  as well. 

[AtlanticRiderFan]

Ok, now that I revealed my age, I just have a minor request.

I don't want to be treated any differently than I was before I told you my age. I would ignore the fact that I am 14 when replying.

I'm no different than the rest of you still.

Haha, I wasn't around when MIGs was on his troll spree, but I hear he was a real bugger!
