August 14, 20168 yr comment_215650 I would only ever cheer for the riders if it was the end of the season and the game had literal impact on the bombers making the play offs and frankly even at that point 'cheer' would be too generous of a term

The refs did everything in their power to hand Regina a touchdown at the end of the first half with three extremely questionable penalties. Calgary receivers did their best to not catch, Cal defenders dropped easy picks. The only folks to blame for the Riders loss are themselves.
August 14, 20168 yr comment_215658 Remember when Ripper said Riders had better Canadian depth than the Bombers.
August 14, 20168 yr comment_215662 I should stay off Twitter. These rider fans have serious delusions of grandeur. Why would the Riders mean more to every person employed in the CFL? The CFLs cash cow is the TSN contract. The Riders don't share their profits with the league. The sense of entitlement from the fans of "Canada's team" is unreal. The lack of respect their organisation showed to the league is what is an embarrassment. You are not entitled to cheat because you are the Riders.
August 14, 20168 yr comment_215663 Panel said Jones complained to Dickenson that they should play classier????? WTF is wrong with Jones?
August 14, 20168 yr comment_215664 Jones clearly says “Win with some class.” And sources have confirmed that’s exactly what the 48-year-old coach said. http://3downnation.com/2016/08/13/chris-jones-exchanges-words-dave-dickenson-stamps-victory/ Edited August 14, 20168 yr by kelownabomberfan

August 14, 20168 yr comment_215666 As Rich said, the TSN deal is the huge league economic driver. Pretty sure TSN can see the ratings by market and am pretty sure that if they didn't get numbers in BC, Alberta and Ontario (especially), the deal wouldn't be as large or exist at all.

August 14, 20168 yr comment_215669 The topper is taps to Dickensons chest. Haha like he is talking to child. Just when you think Jones can't get lower he pulls something new out.

August 14, 20168 yr comment_215675 how long till hes done in the league for good? End of the year? This is getting mike kelly esq.

Serious question, if they find out that the Riders are paying guys under the table, isn't that a Canadian Labour Code violation? Doesn't that warrant the revocation of a work visa?
August 14, 20168 yr comment_215678 Wow...that Rod Pederson is a real ******. The guys in the media and acts like he's 8 years old and someone just took away his ice cream. He was on Calgary radio last week calling BLM a "Punk" and that he'll get what's coming to him. Hmmmmmmmmmm, where have we heard that before? Yes Donald...but now you have to stay in the race. You all we got.

Taxes also dont have the be paid till the end of the year, as long as the gov't gets its money at some point theyll be appeased. Edited August 14, 20168 yr by wbbfan

Weve seen some awful incidents with american athletes who are allowed to continue playing here when an regular person would have had the work visa removed. The way things are going for him he's going into the mike kelly zone any way.

Without all those Rider fans all 8 other teams would lose millions at the gate.

Wow. Is it a classy move not to give DD a chance to respond?
August 14, 20168 yr comment_215712 I'm the furthest thing from a Stamps fan, but man, I'd love to have seen DD throw a punch there...
