Obviously not. I'm saying that Bobby Clarke's comment, "Roger got cancer - that wasn't our fault. We didn't tell him to go get cancer". Is about the shittiest thing a human being can say and that makes Clarke a POS

Because I thought that was your complaint, and I don’t surf Riderfans so I would not know. Brushed under the rug and forgotten about like a big nothing burger

I think separating players from fans has more to do with the CFL's Covid protocol than the incident in T.O. last season, and I don't recall any Bomber player physically entering the stands this season or last, like they did in 2019. I know nobody wants to rehash the topic but a Rider/Argo game was re-scheduled less than a month ago due to a Covid outbreak, so it's still a thing. Fair point. Maybe it was the eating factor. Not that Davis jumping into the stands wouldn’t expose him.

Made excuses and rationalizations, “tainted supplement”, “useless old type of drug”, outrage that he was not up for awards rather than outrage that he broke the rules, then not brought up again until he left. But trot out “PED Leonard” at the drop of a hat. Like I said, typical of any fan base if it is their player, not just unique Riderfans denial. Edited August 19, 20222 yr by TrueBlue4ever
August 19, 20222 yr comment_587995 Except nobody denies he tested positive. Feel like we talked about this already

In all honesty...what showed up as trace was an old school oral that I dont think u can even get anymore...also one which an athlete would never use in season...especially a skilled position guy..so there is that

He knew he was dirty and he didn't whine about everything. No one would touch Clarke because of guys like Dave Schultz, Don Saleski, Bob Kelly, Gary Dornhoefer, Andre Dupont & Jack McIlhargey. With those guys Clarke was suddenly 4 inches taller & 30 lbs heavier when he stepped on the ice.

August 21, 20222 yr comment_588352 The BC Lions just announced that Nathan Rourke will undergo surgery for a Lisfranc sprain. Recovery is usually 6-8 weeks but with surgery, it could take from 5-8 months to heal. That's me looking it up on Google as \i've never heard of a Lisfranc sprain.
