To be honest, that whole thread has devolved into a juvenile pissing match. The brilliant and witty response of #1990 is all they can muster.

I hope our bickering doesn't come off as childish and petty to outsiders as their does... however I thought it was funny that many Rider fans were defending Mike... turns out there are a few level headed individuals...
May 31, 20169 yr comment_198430 They are trying to rebuild a brand of personalities over there. At its core it is Jones and Murphy, Murphy and Jones. Nothing nothing is going to get in the way of that right now. If Jones dumped Durant you better believe it would be defended by the usual suspects.

Rotor has gone completely off his rails. I can't believe that rant he went on against Suzie calling her "him". Did enjoy Mike's interaction with him though. Edited June 1, 20169 yr by Jacquie

Lower body strength is more important, but great upper body strength can really bail a tackle out. Of course foot speed hip fluidity and such are all very important at tackle too. What ever a Ts weakest at is most important to him. Lots of linemen out there dont have particularly big arms for their stature. But they all have big legs. Its kinda taken for granted that when your 300+ and play a sport at a high level that your legs will be pretty damn strong. I think thats why 225 reps at the combine is thought soo highly of for linemen. If a guy has strong upper body and is that big his legs probably wont be lagging too badily. For me though ill take a quick/explosive tackle over any other single attribute. I'll take a guy who can do 225 reps as well. Be funny if it was a punter.
June 1, 20169 yr comment_198465 Reading the JSJ thread on Rider Fans. Fans heads are exploding over there. The Riders are going to get a reputation of not respecting players. Going to be hard to sign free agents.

If some one is top notch and excels in any area physically they are worth a look. Lets go sign one of the nbadl guys thats been kicking around a few years. 6'8 220 lbs wr lol. But then most of those guys struggle to put up 1 rep of 185 at their combine.
June 1, 20169 yr comment_198472 One thing I was wondering about this JSJ holdout... Does anyone know approximately how much Gagnon, Revenberg, and Villiancourt (and even Brian Jones) signed for... if Jones and Co think they can sign JSJ for less than the other top picks... I wouldn't expect him to ever play for the Riders... Edited June 1, 20169 yr by bearpants

Sometimes it does, but its not a big deal. Its a discussion board, I honestly think people take things a little too serious at times. As far as Mike, lots of posters respect his posts, that's why people are defending what he is saying. Its not him personally but his idea or position that gets defended. No different than here, there are posters that add lots to the forum and other that add nothing.

Did enjoy Mike's interaction with him though. Suzie and her husband both post, although I believe she posts most of the time. He may have been referring to her husband. Not defending him, just sayin`.

I honestly thoroughly enjoy reading the interactions between reasonable posters... there's just some guys who start every response with "stop trolling" or "you're just pushing an agenda"... rather than take part in actual discussion... but hey, I don't want to call the kettle black, every forum has them...

I get that. Sometimes when I am about to post something here, I ask myself if anyone will actually believe my post or just think I am just pushing the green koolaid. I think as time passes, people realize you are just posting your opinion. As I said, lots of good bomber fan posters at riderfans. The people who just troll don`t seem to last long, so its not usually much of a problem.

The irony is that at after reading at Riderfans the two guys who start each post with "Stop Trolling" the most are mfranc and Migs. lol

Long live the NDP. New government here that doesn't believe in over regulation now. I would hope our tailgate is coming in the near future. Edited June 1, 20169 yr by gcn11
