No show them the Harris shot and tell them that the Peg will wear a Riderfan asterisk like a badge of honor...means it hurt their pride a lot.

The JSJ signing is just nonsensical really. The guy is a bust. I can't fathom how a team with such little NAT OL strength or depth could allow what little they had to get raided. I'm now waiting for their next big splash...Faith Ekakitie.

Jeez....I sure hope not.

Nope...according to Rider fans latest that's all he's worth. Some truly startlingly dumb comments are that pass knockdowns are the equivalent of a tackle and therefore don't really matter, and that AC Leonard.....AC FREAKING LEONARD is just as good as Willie. Never change Riderfans….just truly, and epically stupid.

Yes we do..but we didnt go on a shopping spree and dont have a backup qb making 275k.

Where the heck are they getting the SMS room from? Two starting QBs...and an already expensive lineup and then they go freewheeling in FA.

Wow...they must be amazing negotiators over there.

I hear ya. I keep his memory alive as a precautionary tale for my children. A forum bogeyman of sorts...

JSJ was like 50 lbs over his already over weight self last year when he showed up to camp apparently. I wonder how tubby he will be this year.

You wanna talk 180's...yesterday the day started with them brutally slagging Solomon Elimimian suggesting he was too old and probably lost a step and praising Larry Dean for being the suprerior MLB that they should sign. By the end of the day Sol E had regained his position as best MLBer in the CFL and Hamilton way overpaying Larry Dean. It's just absolutely comical.

Gbill doesn't get an honorable mention? I think I will report his exclusion to the moderators.

The ones they have starting are weak at best.

I spoke to him last week when he was in Thompson doing anti bullying presentations and he said he was staying put. I guess he wasn't kidding. Excellent community service guy.

Hating traffic and going to a horse and buggy seems like quite the leap.

Blows right through a double team. Man those RIder OL suck.

That's pretty tame compared to some of the crap he was saying when he was in NFL camps. He is kind of a running joke down there. Some players were apparently freaked out by him. Dude has NFL level talent with the brain of a 60s hippy.

140k is great value for Darvin.

I think we have seen a QB reset. Last year the two big fish landed 700 and 800k contracts. This year nothing over 500k. TO with low contracts to 2 QBs, Sask gets their most outstanding nominee QB for less than 500, only Arbuckle may have an argument for overpay but again is well under 500....and lets not forget that BLM and Masoli both took big shaves as well. Id say the QB market has reset to 2018 levels.

There is no team with competent management that is going to pay any player 290k in FA this year. This year is a market reset, we've seen it at QB already and it will continue with position players. Last year was an anomaly because GMs felt the SMS was going up by more than it did. Now teams are back pedaling hard off of last year's numbers. Willie will get a number more in line with Biggie's. Teams do not have the SMS this year because a crap load of SMS flex went away with rookie contracts raising so significantly.

Posting highlights of other players doesn't diminish Nichols play.

For sure. The only criticism i have of Lapo's scheme is when he went ultra conservative too early or didnt open up the playbook early enough when were down. Other than that it was smart football. Too many people judge an offence by their adrenaline response instead of the actual results.

I will never understand why some fans feel the need to tear down a player in order to build another one up. Nichols played good ball for us but couldn't get us over the hump and Collaros did. They played almost identical ball, but Collaros proved he can come up bigger when the team needed a play. It is complete nonsense to suggest Nichols was no good and just shows ignorance really. He helped us win a lot of games over the past several years and is a big part of the success we have had. To suggest otherwise is stupid. Collaros, when healthy, brings more intangibles to us but that doesn't diminish the fact that Nichols can execute an offence.

Have you taken a look at Collaros's passing chart? Get used to the short dump offs they are not going anywhere. Something like 85% of ZC's throws with us last year were within 5 yards of the LOS. He just took a couple more shots down the field per game than Nichols, and had more success doing so.

I'd like to know what MBT signed for. Matt may still end up being their guy.

Who was their running back? How many times did he get the rock?
