August 23, 20159 yr comment_144986 The interviews during the game are cringe worthy. Absolutely god awful.
August 23, 20159 yr comment_144994 Well, prepare yourself people, we know who will probably be doing the game today on TSN in Toronto.
August 23, 20159 yr comment_145003 Nice to see those that have contributed to our game being recognized.
August 23, 20159 yr comment_145007 Right now Collaros is looking like the best QB in the league and Austin looks like the shoo-in for the Coach of the Year. I really can't see any weaknesses in the team, except maybe their running game which may be a problem in cold weather. The 'Cats are full value for their record. Great observation. With the Cup in Winnipeg weather is going to be a factor and a lack of a running game may prove to be an achilles heel..
August 23, 20159 yr comment_145008 The only dangers I see with Hamilton is peaking too early and Austin needlessly exposing his MVP QB to possible injury. That never happens, does it?
August 23, 20159 yr comment_145009 I think Huff has figured it out...go for 2 every time in the concert. O'Shea will figure that out in 2-3 years, if he's still employed then. Guy is so stubborn. No he won't.
August 23, 20159 yr comment_145018 Smith looks good in my opinion. He needs a little more experience but he could be the future QB for the Riders. He can't pass. Marve looks better as a passer, which would be scary for me if I were a Rider fan. Not only is he struggling with the mental side of it and decision-making, his arm does not look good at all. He needs a lot of space to get a pass off in the pocket and he needs a wide-open target.
August 23, 20159 yr comment_145029 Highly entertaining game. Interviews aside, I think this one looked quite good on Tv. It's quite obvious that the Stamps, while still good, are not quite as talented as they were the past 3 seasons. I figure Edmonton, with a healthy Rielly, will defeat them in the West Final.
August 23, 20159 yr comment_145032 Was a good game but looked like Calgary was taking it easy in the first half, even in to the 2nd half.. Part of me believes the Stamps were just playing around with the Riders, not taking them overly serious. Good game but... Lots of iffy penalties again, the one penalty on the Calgary DL for roughing the passer was a joke and a few plays later, Sask scored. Got the feeling the refs were trying to help out SASK at times.... But, it is what it is really. Stamps are a way better team tho and it showed last night, Sask would make it close and then Calgary would come back and score right away. As for Smith, I don't see it really, I see a guy who is still looking to run first, i see a guy who can't read a D , i see a guy who makes wrong decisions, I see a guy with a weak arm, someone said it looks like any one of his passes could be picked off and thats pretty much what i see when he throws too. Sask is odd tho, Messam getting 8 yards a carry damn near yet they want Smith to throw all the time, Makes no sense really.
August 23, 20159 yr comment_145033 Ottawa Toronto time... This is where you see if Ottawa is legit or if they are just pretenders still... Think they aren't as good as the record says they are.
August 23, 20159 yr comment_145043 The crowd in Toronto is beyond embarrassing they need to get to BMO and do some marketing.
August 23, 20159 yr comment_145047 I'm not sure how embarassing it is, it's just very spread out... Looks like a good sized crowd honestly... just very spread out.. I was gonna ask.. I've never been to a football game at skydome but.. for anyone who has.. Does it look as awful on TV as it does in person in terms of the view? Stands seem very far away from the field.
August 23, 20159 yr comment_145050 Are the linemen sleeping? On an occasion each teams had receivers yards offside.

It's made for baseball. Where every seat at IGF is facing midfield more or less, every seat at SkyDome is pitched toward home plate, which is basically the endzone of the end facing the scoreboard. It's terrible for football.

August 23, 20159 yr comment_145056 The crowd in Toronto is beyond embarrassing they need to get to BMO and do some marketing.What's with everything being "beyond" these days?

August 23, 20159 yr comment_145064 You're far from the field in Toronto. I saw a game there against the Bombers in 2001 and there were maybe 12k people there. The atmosphere was brutal.

August 23, 20159 yr comment_145084 The crowd in Toronto is beyond embarrassing they need to get to BMO and do some marketing. You missed the part that i already mentioned that
August 23, 20159 yr comment_145101 Toronto isn't as good as their record says they are and neither is Ottawa.
August 24, 20159 yr comment_145106 Pretty good game. Burris was great. Stupid penalties ended up killing Ottawa. Lousy crowd, but it sounded OK considering how small it was. Toronto keeps coming back in the 4th. Can't count on that all the time. 3 Teams @ 6-2 and 3 @ 3-5.
August 24, 20159 yr comment_145121 OTT had a chance to make a statement on being a force in the East but flunked the audition. Division is a two horse race for now.
