Good luck guys and safe travels if anyone is on the road. Be lots of football to talk about and argue about in the next couple weeks. Any thing can happen at labor day, we have all seen it many times before.

Ummmm, I believe that they are commonly referred to as Rider fans. Exhibit A: The Riders Fight Song

Politics i tell u..ifbthey have draft picks..higher profile guys..even if not better..they always cut the CFL guy..or the undrafted nobody..just way it goes in NFL

Don't know where to put this so it will go here. Watching Wisconsin and South Florida and who's name do I hear? Kerwin Bell. He's the OC at South Florida this year.

Our cabin is off the grid and you used to have to take a train and now have a private 13 km long road with 6 locked gates to get through before you get to a parking lot and then walk around to get your boat to come get your stuff. We have alot of solar panels now, cell phone booster, etc. Which makes it more like a house then roughing it as a cottage when i was younger. All my siblings are huge readers and are unplugged and reading or doing things outside. While i also spend a lot of time outside, because of my ADHD, it very challenging to read a book. My mind wanders, and i can read 20 pages and have no clue what i read at all and have to go over it again and hope my mind doesnt wonder. But i can hyper focus on the things i'm really intested in like MBB, News, Reddit, or IT. If i took my Meds, i could read etc but the side affects are hard on my wife and kids when i come off them or when i'm super focus and get annoyed at the distractions. Anyhow, the bombers are one of few things i really enjoy in life and can focus with out issues and watching it more enjoyable. It might also have to do with the fact that i don't really hear words sung in songs either. I can hear a song 100s of times and be hard pressed to sing more then 10% of it. Which is why i listen to mainly EDM/trance/techno. I've shared too much.. But i want to feel closer with you and my QBs.

I think Johnny is gonna open some eyes tomorrow..

The silver lining of Neufeld's long absence has been 3 young Natl. O-linemen fast tracking their careers with plenty of valuable game reps. they would not normally have received. This has provided the coaching staff with an abundance of game film which will help them make difficult roster decisions during the off-season which could determine the composition of the O-line for the next 3-4 years. I think they now have the confidence to move on without Paddy.

Gawd as my witness I will never tire of watching Bell spike himself in the cobbles.

I was following his progress in Philly & every NFL writer covering the team said he was in tough down the depth chart. The Eagles are deep at linebacker but that performance should have nailed him a spot on the roster. Marken Michel also had a 75 yard TD pass the first exhibition game. And he was waived. Don't let anyone tell you this wasn't politics or favouritism by the coaches. They already made their decision before the game. There is a lot of anti CFL bias in the NFL. I can see him refusing a PR spot as Singleton can come back to Calgary & get paid more than being on the PR.

we need to upgrade this board so you can respond to a post with both "laugh" and "cry"

I am pretty sure just sending them money ends up cheaper in the end...

Then Juran Bolden shoving him to the ground

Kerwin Bell having about as much success coaching as he did quarterback of the Bombers...

Nothing beats being there,whether it's a 6 hour drive or 16 minutes.

I hate Pete Carroll and the Seahawks (Go 9ers!) but I agree. He wins because he cares about winning and not the egos.

Hopefully McCallister sticks around this time

Not a big Michel guy. He’s fine but he’s pretty clearly not much more than a deep threat. He doesn’t improve this offence much. Zylstra is the guy that really transforms this offence. Put him in Whitehead’s spot and bring Lucky in for the odd gadget play.

I know, no sense trying to fool anybody, Bombers win this game on the run or they don't win at all. The more running weapons they can throw at the Riders the better.

Crap, they decided not to add Santiago.

Puts him in a unique position of being able to answer the question "did that loss hurt more than a shot to the nads ?"

Chungh was up and down when he got thrown into the starting lineup too.

Get the mustache back or get the **** off my TV screen

You can marry them... ...just don't send them $

Singleton is luckier than most. He has options that aren't at the whim of an NFL GM. He could go back to Calgary & sign for a minimum $250,000. Maybe not NFL money but if he plays a decade he's set for life.

Sounds accurate

And ignore that Nigerian prince as well as erectile dysfunction meds.

An old man walks into a pub in Scottland, his feet shuffling, his back bent. He drags himself onto a stool and orders a beer. Placing the full glass in front of him, the bartender inquires upon his sad face. The man answers with a smoky and trembling voice and a Scottish accent: Ah, tell ya man! This pub, this very pub we're just sitting in. I built it, with me own hands! But do they call me the Pubmaker? Naa! See the wall over there, that protects our town? I built it, with me own hands! But do they call me the Wallmaker? And the bridge, you know, that crosses our river, I built it, with me own hands! But do they call me the Bridgemaker? But I tell ya, man! YOU F*** ONE GOAT!

Its not Dionysus is it?

I think Petermann is going to have a big role in this game as a true slot'back'

I don't know that that's necessarily true.... I've been a vocal critic of Streveler as a passer but last year vs Mtl, he lit em up through the air. He CAN do it and we've got guys that can get open if there's a lot of man coverage...

(and then is signed by them) heh heh

Alright just to play devil's advocate here... couldn't they get around this rule by just listing Streveler at another position? List him at RB, then have him take snaps (no different than a direct snap to Harris, which sometimes is run)?

The riders are gonna be so excited to shut down the run that Streveler an the offence are gonna light them up through the air....

Williams takes Harris' spot, Adams for Matthews. Need 21 NI's on roster. Crazy to me they don't dress the 3rd QB. What's the harm? If they lose both QB's at least they have someone to put out there.

Demski is the backup RB.

That is an extremely thin offense. They have Grant too as a receiver, but they are basically a couple injuries away from having some very interesting decisions in terms of who does what. Could even see some guys from D go both ways.

To me, this just further validates their plan to use Demski/Whitehead in unorthodox running patterns more often.

Augustine gets hurt just put Strevs in at RB and McGuire at QB.

dont like that they dont have a backup RB.

Having Wylie for a bit and then a Wylie protégé now running things for the OL has been all the difference, Imo...

I think Kongbo if not injured definitely would of had NFL interest.

No I just mean he’ll catch the winning TD in the grey cup against us

A guy we cut (Brandin Bryant) got a tryout with the Browns this year.

We call that "room" Saskatchewan.

You don't blame the patient for his disease. He is a Roughrider fan, and that can be terminal. With your donations, compassion and prayers he may just beat it. Give to the United Way in your area to give a helping hand to all those less fortunate to you. With your help we can all make our country a better place.

Why are you guys bringing back these painful memories... I had buried them deep inside . I have to go back to therapy. Someone start a gofundme for my upcoming sessions.

WHy are you calling him a racist? there was nothing in those post that would indicate he was racist. It's a little tinfoil fodder, but far from racist. Geez man- step away from the key board you social justice warrior.

anybody read Jeff Hecht's comments about it in Tait's piece yesterday. He doesn't come right out and say it, but strongly implies that he doesn't believe Harris, but is willing to let him admit his mistake and move on. Says he's a team first guy, if nothing else, and will always support a teammate vs a player from someone else's team that gets busted. It was interesting...
