After Labour Day, they will have slowed down considerably, not to being more mention injury-liable.

Its about getting more people in seats to come see the music act, and hoping a percentage of them will enjoy the football and game enough to come back for more. You complain about the CFL and TSN not doing enough to attract new fans and grow the game. Here is BC trying something to grow their fan base and bring in people who wouldn't normally come to a football game, but that apparently is also problematic. 🤷

Absolutely, and fans have come to expect a concert every home opener now. Imagine the backlash if the team decides to stop having them or scale back on the talent they bring in?

You get people in seats for game 1 and then maybe they come back because they enjoyed themselves.

I think he was being polite is saying...they sucked lol Back to that front line Canadian depth tho....how is O'day still the G.M???? Unless paying a soon to be 34 yr old Import Olineman the most in the land...on serious decline, and been struggling with injuries the better part of last 2 yrs is the way to sustain employment...I can see another decent out of the gate start there...and the same mid season swoon into the toilet

Agree though bobby dyce is great people and yeah I don’t think he’s gonna succeed as a hc sadly.

Jones is even crazier, but he had been the architect of some good Ds. It’s not hard to see them passing the riders. I also like the stamps having shlitz to back up mayormccheese too.

For all the league wide ballyhoo about Mace and what Riders did...I have a hard time seeing better than 3rd for them, and thats if everyrhing goes right...Harris isn't the guy...who is "next up"...and Oulltte and Hardrick isnt what will put them over....Carney and Thurman are basically interchangeable as to what they had last year...and Mace...is he the real deal?....or Claybrooks 2.0 who also got trumpeted as the next best thing If any team in the West really improved the most, I think it's the Elks..

I don’t think I’ve seen any Rider fans tout Harris as the guy… he is who he is. Around here, the Riders could acquire the entire Blue Bombers roster and there would be a narrative that they haven’t improved and will still finish last
