Would be surprised if the CFL does anything with last minute Riders changes today.
Riders play by their own rules anyways lol.
Bad karma back to bite them again today.

memory from my youth (player on riders reminded me)

"Andrew Richard Robustelli (December 6, 1925 – May 31, 2011[2]) was an American professional football player who was a defensive end in the National Football League (NFL) for the Los Angeles Rams and the New York Giants. "

I wonder if Maier would benefit from playing with a different coach. He seems to be able to throw, quite well.

Wow, Mosaic is super mega dead today! The 200 level visitor side has like 100 people in it!

There was only 1 hour between games, so I can't believe this is just a result of the WPG win? I know I get prepped and leave the house way sooner than 1 hour before kickoff. Did SSK fans stop halfway there in their cars and turn around?

They don't want to celebrate their team having gotten 2nd in the W after missing the playoffs last season?

That fan base has really been disappointing this year. Will they ever come back?

I wouldn't.

CRYDERS seem to be mailing it in this game. Calgary actually looks competent!

Then again if you are playing mostly against backups and practice roster players, Calgary should look a bit better.

Was not Fajardo also doing dink and dunk like Harris? That seems to be the Cryders mode on offence for years now. Air the odd one out. Not sure they really have a good deep threat still. Is that not what Fajardo yelped about later on during his stay there? Threw his team under the bus as well with sour grapes. Probably why they never resigned him. Maybe receiver Emilus is closest to their real deep threat. NO MORE CANADIAN AIR FORCE!

23-6 at the start of the 4th Q. I'm actually surprised Mace would allow his team to mail in this game. Then again, when I saw Patterson in place of Harris, I guess we shoulda known he's prioritising player safety. WSF should be a real slobberknocker.

I doubt he gets the chance. He had every chance in the world starting for, what, 3 years for CGY? And tutelage under a great cerebral QB Dickenson... that's not good enough?

I think a team would have to be desperate, having lost the QB musical chairs that this FA will be, before they even think about starting Maier. I think he'd make a great #2 though if you had the money.

My guess is he fades away like Franklin did, or ends up like Arbuckle.

I know what I'd do if Maier was released tomorrow, though: I'd hire him as insurance for the cup run!
