Rider at Redblacks GDT 6:30pm

[GOLDMEMBER]

RBs are royally screwed with Crum da bum at the helm. Peeeeuuuuu

[J5V]

We can still say that the Riders are winless in three straight games. That sounds good to me. 

[Sir Blue and Gold]

Riders fans melting down everywhere.

Redblacks went from having lost to getting a tie and denying Sask a win. That's a huge win for the Bombers. We just need to take care of our business and we'll be just fine.

good! Lol

Boooooo

On SSK's tie-it-up TD:

That was a huge pick/rub by the clearing route SSK guy making the OTT D guy assigned to the TD route fall down.

I don't know why OTT doesn't challenge that.  It was horribly obvious a pick.  OTT guy was allowed to jam there within 5.

I see that, lol

Poor poor Puddy cats.

Right. Clearly illegal. I was actually surprised they showed a replay which isolated the pick. I was even more surprised that neither Rod Smith nor Duane Forde picked up on it. They just said the Rider receiver made the defender fall down. Well, duh! Yeah, he sure did, and it was intentional. Who's responsible for training these officials?

Best thing about this game is the 100 posts on the rider forum calling for the command center/ Ambrosie to be blown up!

[ichabod_crane]

WHAT A FARCE! Almost as bad as the two phantom calls against the Bombers in Sask a few weeks ago... I DEMAND EYE tests for all referees and call centre staff!

With how badly both teams played, a tie is maybe the apt final result for this snoozefest!

I actually turned off my tv volume after that last apparent sack on Ottawa. Then I see after I get a drink that players still milling on the field? ***?! Wacko city tonight.

[Blueforlife]

you are right he is terrible.

No

I personally think name calling is unnecessary

[TecnoGenius]

That is NOT PI

Great timing Great play in the ball!

BS!

Is that our PS McGhee?  OTT picked him up as soon as we dropped him??

[TecnoGenius]

I don't know about that one. Greenies got a gift from the CC. That won't shut them up though.

Holy smokes is command completely inconsistent and all over the place.  Makes no sense at all.

a) It wasn't egregious
b) Didn't turn the receiver
c) Wasn't called DPI on the field
d) Little bump like that hasn't been called DPI all season except on the 2 chintsy calls they laid on us vs SSK

Hmmm.... that makes 3 chintsy "bump" calls turned into DPI this season and all of them favored SSK.

I am truly shocked command overturned that call on the field for this weak sauce.

[TecnoGenius]

And it wasn't but on review it will be most times

No it won't.  Command has been overturning almost nothing this season.  They pick right now to overturn something?

Many teams have tried to get command to call a non-called DPI this season and I think 1-2 have been successful?  Remember the Maas DPI attempt last week?  Obvious DPI and upheld.

But hey, did they say Valesi was in command tonight?  Maybe part of the problem is it's not the same guy every night/week?  Usually it's Bradbury.

[TecnoGenius]

Head to head contact on Crum on previous play. Dyce was right.

They also didn't give us that RTP/H2H on Zach when he was out cold for 7 secs.  Clearly they don't give a hoot if you hit the QB head as long as you lead with your hands.  It's a freebie way to knock out QBs.

This is a crazy game!  I keep thinking it's over and it's not (sorry I'm so behind!)
