September 30, 201410 yr Author comment_86098 Madani was Bombers Communications/PR guy during Taman run there....super tight. Text regularly...not that it means anything, but just sayin'... Why would Taman leak info about the offer for a player that was supposedly rejected knowing that a large portion of the fanbase can't stand the player in question? Sorry not buying it, Taman has nothing to gain by that. There is a very good reason the media in Winnipeg absolutely loves Brendan Taman still, it's because he is very open with them, he always told them a lot. It's part of why they hated Kelly and Mack so much, both guys basically told the media to go **** themselves. If you honestly think that Taman would leak his offer that got rejected for a player a lot of fans hate then I guess there is no use arguing lol.
September 30, 201410 yr comment_86099 Edmonton signed Paris Jackson, which seems to confirm they were looking for a Canadian R. Well with Chambers out for the rest of the year they likely needed someone.Â

September 30, 201410 yr Author comment_86101 So let me get this straight...the day after Taman's trade offer is rejected by the RBs Durant suddenly has an excellent chance of returning. Doesn't take a genius to figure out that the Riders are desperately trying to not give the impression that they are desperate. No one offers a 1st round pick and a roster player for a 40 year old QB rental unless their QB is out for the season. Don't really care what Chamblin, Durant, or Taman SAY right now. Actions speak louder than words and the ACTIONS say that Durant is toast for this year. I found it especially comical that the timeline for "Durant's return to throwing" is the week FOLLOWING the trade deadline. Wrong.

Â Better go back to the echo chamber at riderfans then. We all know how Taman operates, we had him here for years. He is really open with the media types, it's why they like him.Â
September 30, 201410 yr comment_86106 God if Riderfans weren't so oblivious to the way things happen in pro sports they wouldn't say such completely asinine things about their team.  Bomber fans may be a negative lot but at least they don't sound like they were born in the back of a turnip truck. Can't..stop...laughing...
September 30, 201410 yr comment_86107 Taman said on 620 ckrm Sportscage tonight that Riders will activate Durant for Game 17 & that he will play in Game 18. Doesn't sound like a false hope to me. Â Don't believe everything that Pederson says...
September 30, 201410 yr Author comment_86108 ,"Yet another rumor surfacing in Twitterland from the media is that the Shmoes and Riders are currently in talks to trade Nichols for one of Bagg/Getzlaf. Nothing says, "despite what we told you today Durant is out for the foreseeable future" more than the Riders trying to pry any QB they can away from anyone for star NIs or 1st round picks. Sorry Migs, this Durant will be back talk is just window dressing to try improve the Riders position in a trade. So you believe the Twitter rumours over the GM & doctors of the Riders. Riddle me this, why would Edmonton trade the team they are tied with a quality young QB like Nichols?
September 30, 201410 yr comment_86109 Control the message . With Riders smashing the panic button and failing to get a credible QB they need to quell the negativity with overly optimistic Durant talk. This keeps the hounds at bay and dont have to answer annoying questions about the now ordinary defense and porous O-line.

Probably can do a mean Red River Jig to boot.
September 30, 201410 yr comment_86136 So let's say the Riders finish 3rd. Can they win in Edmonton and Calgary with a potentially rusty Durant?
September 30, 201410 yr comment_86143 This is obviously spin. There is no way they are going to take out future hall of famer Tino Sunseri unless he gets hurt.
