Making the league look bad: item #2837
And to weigh in on the stamps and bomber fan. I was a leafs fan (yes you can go ahead and feel free to laugh at me) through the early 90s. Loved them. Then moved to Winnipeg in 05. I said I would jump ship only if the jets got a team back. Now I'm a Jets fan because I can follow the team and go watch games and it's easy to support them. I still quietly cheer for the leafs deep down inside and wouldn't be sad at all if they won a cup (never gonna happen) but when they are in town I want the Jets to crush them! This doesn't make me any less of a Jets fan.

After going over it and over it and over it I snapped a good screen shot where you can see Dressler's arm insdie Cox's arm. So Yes I agree with you. But Suitor yaps off about it saying he didn't think it was the right call. Then you have Pederson and now you have other players saying it was a bad call. But it's clear that its a PI!

The ref calling it has both players backs to him. From his POV it likely looked like he was hauled down. There was definite hand to hand and what appears to be a hooking and who knows if Jones had been able to challenge it if it would have been over turned or not. Dressler could have sold it a bit also and drawn the flag. Either way this is the type of crap we are used to seeing getting called on us so it's nice we get a few back the other way for a change.

Wow. After seeing the Sheppard and Dressler tosses it's hard to blame Nichols on either of those. He placed both of them well with in reach and catching range and both were to the receivers advantage where they wouldn't be picked off. Those types of things work them selves out with time and chemistry between receiver/QB. Let's hope they can improve on those.

Bob Wylie Collapses After Game
Any update on Coach Wylie?

Chris Jones Post Game
Personally I would like to see Bob go out on the top. I don't want to see him sign something for a few years to do PBP into his early to mid 70s. He is and always has been the best PBP announcer in sports IMO but he's just starting to lose a step it feels. Little slower on the play calls and is starting to make minor errors on calls and player names numbers etc. I don't want him to start slipping and have his last few years not but what we are used to. And maybe he doesn't go that way and maybe he can call it into his 70s but I would like to see him go out before then if it does happen

Ok that's also what I thought So in saying that. If Pedersen is paid in anyway directly from the Rider organization and is on a Rider payroll then the league would have authority to hand him down a fine or one to the Rider organization for letting him run his mouth. He really should be careful on how he acts in the media.

That's kinda what I was under the impression he did. The Bombers don't pay Bob Irving for PBP do they? CJOB pays him do they not?

Bombers saw a huge season ticket jump their last year in the old barn (well last 2...) and it carried over into IGF and into the Grey Cup. It's now starting to go down a bit. Riders will also see that for the first few years at NMS. And if they stay on pace for 3 wins a year those ticket numbers will drop drastically.

Does anyone have a clip of the last PI call they can post? I watched it live but haven't seen the replay yet.

Banjo Bowl
Yup. This one scares me just as much as the game yesterday did. Riders did enough to win that game if they didn't make dumb coaching decisions and take bad penalties. Clean those up and they can take us. But I think the amped up crowd at IGF will help us win it.

Are they just not going to play the last 2 games of the season?

Around The League Regular Season Discussion
Yup. I will certainly miss watching the CFL next year after the league has to fold due to all the Rider fans who keep this league afloat stop buying merch and going to games.

Nik Lewis
I don't think we absolutely need him but we could definitely use him! I've made fun of Thick Nik for years buts it's only because he's not playing for the Bombers. If there was an opportunity to get him here I would be all for it. But I'm also not going to lose sleep over it if we don't
-
Nik Lewis
Lewis has 669 yards receiving on a mediocre team. Our closest receiver to him is Darvin Adams at 503. We could use him.

If we could manage to have Harris, Lewis, Dressler, Smith in a line up that would make any of lefores, boltus, hall, Marve, Willy, Nichols, Goltz Etc. Etc. Etc. look like Calvillo
