Super Duper Negatron

Riders QB throws an ugly ball...

The amount of bitching about an 11-7 season is absurd given what past seasons have been like. If we get blown out next week, this season still goes down as a huge success and will be the first bomber season I have enjoyed in a while.

Would getting swept by Ottawa really instill confidence that we could make a run from the East?

How...I mean why...like...what the hell...how did the refs miss that roughing the passer on Reilly?

Bomber playoff games are historically poorly attended. I would bet 25K is a reasonable guess.

You don't see a problem with breaking an agreement with the league's main broadcast partner, which incidentally is also its main source of revenue?

Is it me, or is Cato terrible?

I agree. We should be scoring 58 points every game. Nichols blows.

Anyone else starting to think the Nichols might actually be a real starting QB? He is starting to remind me of what we hoped Willy was going to be.

The tackle by Leggett is play of the year for me.

Wait, he used urban dictionary? Not even Wikipedia? Cripes.

You guys seriously have a problem with him being suspended for this? Apparently I am too much of a square.

Love this signing. I was ready to take Gurley for Willy straight up, so to get him for free is a bonus.

If Gurley ends up on BC or Edmonton, let the tarring and/or feathering of Walters begin in the nearest public square.

Also, LOL @ Toronto cutting basically all of their receivers after anointing Willy thew starter for the rest of the year. Poor Drew.

Wait, Gurley was released? Sign him! Sign him now!

CFL tweeted that a Bomber win and an Argo loss clinches a Bomber playoff spot. Er...is that right? Couldn't the Argos still get to 9 nine wins and deny us a crossover? Edit: Argos play Edmonton in the last week. I guess that's why.

Super uneasy about this game. Damn, a win last week would have taken some of the pressure off.

Wait, did Bender actually say we should get a starting goalie for Trouba? Can we filter him out of the Twitter feed?

I'm no fan of Madani's Twitter antics, but that is a great article.

Is Wild going to be back? Messam is a tough nut to crack...

Anyone have a copy of this book? I was thinking of picking one up but wanted to see what people thought of it. http://johanyjutras.ifmerch.com/en/products/johanyjutras-book-our-league-our-country-the-cfl-book

LOL at Rod Pedersen: 1 – How unfortunate that the 2016 Banjo Bowl was marred by the incident involving a 9-year old Winnipeg boy. Bomber fans reportedly mistook the child for a Rider fan (he was wearing a Blue Bomber t-shirt under a green bunnyhug), and he was sworn at and had beer dumped on him. He left the stadium in tears. Can you think of anything more despicable? Would it make it right if the child was a Rider fan? 2 – The Winnipeg Blue Bombers should be commended for dropping off a gift basket for the kid at his house, but be condemned for provoking the whole situation in the first-place. The promotional video the Bombers released in advance of the game featured the Bomber mascots attacking a Rider fan, disrobing him in an alley, and re-dressing him in Blue Bombers gear. That almost sounds like what happened Saturday afternoon at the game doesn’t it? 3 – The Roughriders’ ads for games in other cities have nothing to do with denigrating the opponent’s fanbase and everything to do with celebrating the Rider Nation. (i.e. the Roll Call billboards in Hamilton and Edmonton this year). You’d never see the Riders call other teams’ fans “Horrible People”. SMH. http://www.riderville.com/2016/09/14/rods-blog-2/

Welcome back Glenn! We (...er...at least some of us...) missed you!

Drunken Bomber fans can be assholes, no question about it. But something about this story doesn't add up. Going after a nine year old kid? Maybe one drunken moron would do it, but to have multiple people go after the kid? I just can't see it. Maybe I am giving people too much credit, I don't know. I certainly have witnessed some extreme jack hole behavior, but never against a kid.
