it took them a little while getting him suited up but I believe he is practising with the 1st team.

I also love CFL football. I also have deep respect for Remembrance Day. But they are not connected. As a matter of fact, part of the reason we are able to play those games and work that day, and go out to eat that day, or go to a movie...etc is because of the sacrifices made. We should never forget that. And, as long as they acknowledge that on Sunday, I will be satisfied, and I’m sure veterans and their families will be appreciative. The NHL, the NFL and the rest of the world will go on but not without Remembrance on the 11th hour on that day. Get your Poppies and wear them with pride and respect. Or better yet, go here: https://mypoppy.ca/

Your words, like a lot of your stadium seats, are empty.

Can change the name of this thread? No reason we should be using variations of the word ******* here. I'm all for making fun of the Riders but don't need to use slurs against people with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

We aren't Canadas team tho you arrogant clown and have other forms of sports entertainment here such as NHL AHL etc. All you got is the Riders. How many times have you sold out a cfl nhl and baseball game On the same day? Oh wait you haven't. We have... Several times so.. The self proclaimed greatest fans in the league need to step up.

As of today there have been 307 mass shootings in the US. Thats nearly every day. At this level, does it matter what happened in the 80's or 90's? Even if the numbers are a bit lower, does that make them at all acceptable? https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.usatoday.com/amp/1928574002

You're talking as if the only Rider fans who attend games in Regina are actually from Regina. You know very well that's not true. You also know very well that Rider fans have given Bomber fans plenty of flak for not selling out our home playoff games so take it somewhere else. You coming on here to bash us for not selling out past playoff games is what is actually PATHETIC.

Always so butthurt whenever someone criticizes the Riders and then the typical deflection tactics. "Waaaah, but the Bombers! My bum hurts."

Ignore the troll. This thread is so much better when it's just the adults talking.

Agree. I've had to put a drinking cast on my arm, a few times...…...

If his alt right cant have America, no one can!

"Unite" is the latest buzz words from the dividers. Personally, I have no desire to understand the racists and bigots. I dont need to find common ground with people like that. There is no compromising with those that have hate in their heart. Seeing seemingly intelligent people so obsessed with Trump and their conservative-ness that they'd ignore all those things is frustrating but it separates those with character from those without. So at least it serves one useful purpose.

No and you could actually do the research but your point was merely to interject to distract from the criticism levied at your boy Trump. Thats why you did it. Many mass-shootings = assault rifle ban = mass shootings decline = assault rifle ban expires (thanks NRA) = mass shootings rise again (a bit more complicated than your silly point) But wait, there's more:

Using that logic, Duke Williams isn't an #1 receiver either.

I suggest riders fan give moments of silence throughout the entire game as a show of respect.

MAY I HAVE THE FLOOR. As the creator of this topic, I will apologize. .... Apologize to all of those who may have inferred from my topic title any offense or slight towards those with intellectual or other handicaps. No offense intended towards them. But I stand by my name for the rider fans.

This is hilarious... coming from a rider fan...

And you have had to have 2 telethons and a fake Rider Stock share gimmick to save your 4 cup winning team (least in all of CFL with some teams being there for less years) from folding...and it's the only major sports event in the ENTIRE province...whats your point again?..

I guess if we had a foolproof system maybe more people would be happy. On the other hand, those who are happy with the selections, would be disappointed. The positions in football have evolved, and maybe, likewise, so should an all-star selection. All’s I know is, I would have a difficult time not having a Singleton or a Bighill on my all-star team.

Literally from page 4 of the Saskatchewan Roughriders 2017-2018 annual report: "The members of Rider Nation flocked to the stadium that day and throughout the season, helping us sell out the pre-season game as well as the team's first seven regular-season contests before weather conditions affected ticket sales late in the campgain. Thanks to the fans, whose support made this tremendous facility possible, the Green and White led the CFL in scanned attendance in 2017 for only the second time in our history." Source: https://d3ham790trbkqy.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/5/2015/11/SaskRoughriders_AnnualReport1718_web.pdf Only the Riders would think being 1st in attendance 2 years out of 107 possible times is a good ratio, oh and this was also on the coattails of your shiny new toilet seat (ahem) stadium.

couldn't agree more.... were the other western safeties that bad this season??

have the Riders signed Kerry Joseph yet, or is that going to be tomorrow's news?

Considering our proximity to Murica, that'd likely not end well for us up here. That's a pretty grim "hope" to have.

Tough on others corruption but not on his own. I don't think he would stand in Trump's way. He's spineless.

The only thing the Bombers need to: 1. Score more points* * preferably, score a lot more points because if we're ahead 13-12 it's just going to cause them a lot of confusion as to which number is bigger.

MOP should be renamed Most Outstanding QB who made the playoffs. Bo is neither the Most Outstanding Player of the west division nor the Most Outtanding QB in the west division.

Nah, you can try to convince me all you want to, but I wont accept racism and bigotry. That some people are willing to do that because they'd rather their "side" not "lose", is very sad to me. In many cases, its not even holding their nose, it's an acceptance of the message. If you think people should step outside their own box, I'd simply suggest you do the same. You can't defend the indefensible. The whole "liberal lefties are so closed minded" is just nonsense. Being closed minded to racism isnt a bad thing. And Im a conservative. Racism is not a conservative ideal.

Bomber need to: 1. Avoid turnovers 2. Have our interior OL command the line of scrimmage 3. Have Harris produce 100+ in total O 4. Bring the heat and put the smack on ZC at every opportunity 5. Our DT's (see #2)

So you are comparing an entire decade of mass shootings to 3 years of mass shootings and conclude that mass shootings are on the decline. 1990- 1999 vs 2010- 2013. Do I need to point out your lack of understanding with basic stats?

Saying you're "pretty sure" about something isn't stating facts; it's speculating. You sticking up for some flatbilly troll is pretty weak.

I guess you didn’t get the message.. ..true blue eh?

Yeah, you're not upset at all... Sweet whiny rant. I was always curious why you showed up here to troll, but now it's plainly obvious: you're no fan of the Riders at all. On that note, what a shame the self-proclaimed best fans in the CFL can't sell out their first playoff game at their new stadium... But sure, let's go and make it about the Bombers. Same old same from TheTriggeredBandit.

It's not about numbers, it's about how they perform when put in a position where they need to be the star, and Adams has failed. The fact that this team can't win without Dressler in the lineup says everything we need to know about Adams ability to be the teams top receiver.

1000 yards and 10 touchdowns is fine top receiver production.

I don't think they're changing coach or GM this year.

You're right beside me (Rider fan)....Look forward to the jabber! Drive safe.

Now now, no one has ever said he should be released. All we have said is that he's not good enough to be a teams top receiver and I'll stand by that no matter how many times he is an allstar.

Apparently made by a white supremacist and sent out by the White (supremacist) House Can people not see how dangerous this is?

Thought and prayers.

Yup.

We were talking about the team whose fans and TSN routinely call the greatest in the CFL. Flunked reading comprehension did we?

We aren't talking about the bombers, we're talking about the self proclaimed greatest fans in the cfl (ie, Saskatchewan). If you want to talk about how many empty seats we have, start your own thread.

Feel JSK got overlooked. Was almost as good as Bighill.

No question that the Sessions firing was intended to impede or halt the investigation into Trump's affairs and the affairs of his family. There may be a much larger game afoot here from the Russians. Trump is heavily indebted to the Russian mob and Saudi royal family and he has always placed his welfare above that of others, even his son Don Junior. Trump has probably been a Russian asset since the early 2000's when he was on the verge of his biggest bankruptcy. The banks in North America and Europe would no longer touch him and he was desperate. Enter the Russian mob/big business/government. Eric Margolis, the noted reporter who has been watching the Russian and Asian political scene for some 30 years, maintains that the Russians have been far more successful in penetrating the American and British intelligence and political machinery than the CIA or MI6 ever were in accessing the Russian equivalents. Russia has succeeded in influencing American foreign policy beyond their wildest dreams, but their real endgame may be to destroy American societal cohesion and set the different factions at each others' throats. Trumps denigration of his intelligence community and discounting of their advice is another step in undermining trust in these institutions while he looks the others way. The prime and recent example of the hither-to respected FBI being ordered "investigate" the allegations against Kavanaugh and then being manipulated so as to produce an exculpatory report on Kavanaugh with them interviewing Kavanaugh, Dr, Ford, Kavanaugh's best friend or either of the other two women who came forward, has to undermine Americans' trust of even the FBI. All this is likely intended to produce exactly what has happened- fatalism on the part of voters that no matter how or if they vote, it produce no positive change. Then, if there is no trust in democracy, all that is needed is for a semi-charismatic leader to step forward with a simplistic "plan" and extravagant promises and voila! we have Germany at the end of the Weimar Republic. America then either becomes a thinly disguised dictatorship or a helpless giant ripe for the picking.

Adam Bighill is an All-Star alright, and not only for football..

Drive safe. Hopefully the road conditions are good this weekend.

I did - but it wasn't 'boo.' Cheers.

You would think that being the only professional sports event in the province..pretty much really the only thing to spend significant entertainment dollars on that there should be no reason to constantly sell out..and it shouldn't be seen as such a big deal

better get a playing cast for Sunday. Hold nothing back!

Playoff games are always a hard sell in the CFL - which is why the season will change in the very near future. I suspect that the Riders will paper the stadium and have a sellout. While I don't say good things about them very often, Saskatchewan does have the best chance of any CFL team of getting a sellout in the playoffs.
