September 18, 20177 yr comment_292018 Id have Sask 3. Behind Calgary and Winnipeg. I mean who else? Edmonton who has lost 5 in a row? BC with a worse record. Sask is easily 3rd right now. No doubts about it.
September 18, 20177 yr comment_292029 Who else would be third? BC after their shellacking? Edmonton after losing to the Argos? The Argos??? It makes sense.

September 19, 20177 yr comment_292073 It's very likely that the Riders...yes the Riders, will finish 3rd in the West this year and thus will come into Winnipeg for that western semi-final playoff game. But here's hoping we can still finish first!

We're assuming that neither Edmonton nor BC pulls out of their skid here, and let's be honest, the Riders looked awfully ordinary in the Banjo Bowl, just because they bounced back and beat Masoli and the ti-cats doesn't suddenly make them a great team. Lots to be decided still.
September 19, 20177 yr comment_292114 People really REALLY jumping the gun on the Riders....I'm not convinced they don't finish dead last....

September 19, 20177 yr comment_292119 BC's not playing well and Edmonton is in a tail spin. I can see why folks are expecting the Riders to be 3rd. The Riders also have the tie breaker against BC and are a bunch of points ahead in the tie breaker with the Eks.

Lots to be decided still. I actually think the Riders looked worse in their win against Ham than they did in their loss against us... Ham was just so bad there was no denying them the loss that night... it was borderline inspirational!
September 19, 20177 yr comment_292155 It's just far to early to even start pencilling in the Bombers as a top 2 team in the west and therefore the league. So much season left and yeah some teams are streaking the wrong way now, but if they stop that streak and start a winning streak all of a sudden things look entirely different. Too close right now.
September 19, 20177 yr comment_292165 The Riders have a chance to knock off the Stamps this weekend and, gulp, that is what Bombers fans should probably hope for. The Bombers need to keep winning and need Calgary to get beaten a few times. Why do I feel I need to take a shower now? Edited September 19, 20177 yr by MC

I dislike both teams intensely, but at this juncture I absolutely refuse to posit that the Riders winning is the lesser of two evils. Besides, the angel on my shoulder tells me the best outcome is for Bo Levi Mitchell to recognize that the Riders "are discovering what kind of team they are" and that he's going to "continue showing them that" ?

That's the whole point/fun of the power rankings... who is playing the best right now... maybe by week 20, the Bombers are 3rd or 4th... but it's pretty hard to argue they aren't #2 right now...
September 20, 20177 yr comment_292423 well yes but I'm not talking about the power rankings, I'm talking about the guy making playoff scenarios up and calling them very likely.

Fair enough... I didn't actually read the blog so I just assumed you were talking about the power rankings...
