Quote from: BBRT on October 31, 2024, 05:59:40 PMI agree with your thoughts - the Western Final will be a close game no matter who shows up. I personally would like to see the Riders come to town as it more fun talking about a Rider vs. Bomber game that a Lions vs. Bomber Game. And I believe the Riders should be able to handle the Lions in the semi in Regina - but it will be close.

The wild card for the Riders could be dressing Armstead in addition to Oullette at RB for the playoffs, but that would have ratio implications elsewhere, so it may not happen. The Lions wildcard is having Rourke as the backup QB if things are not going well for Adams.

WDF is over a week away with the Bombers reporting 30,000 tickets sold.

You can't say that anymore, but "dirty Rider math" is still accepted.

How they suck, Or how they have not sold out games, is a good sign, and to quote my teenage kids, the Riders are living in your head rent free.

Three more fines on two players:

Yeah, way too many years of way too many players from the Riders playing dirty to call it a coincidence.

Something about the way O'Day recruits players.

Riders always seem to have one big douche every year...Duke Williams one year, forget the guy's name last year (a lineman who was suspended) and now Brown this year, it speaks very poorly of the integrity of the organization when they stoop to that low to employ such dirt bags. No wonder everyone hates them!!

So, if Salyes is fined for two hits, can each hit carry the max half game cheque fine?  Or, once you make a fineable hit, the rest are free?

They didn't hesitate scooping up Armstead, who earned the reputation of being a douche bag in Ottawa in less than half a season. Apparently in the Victoria game he was running up and down the sidelines screaming and swearing at fans, he obviously has a few too many screws loose.

Apparently good friends with Antonio Brown.

While I'd prefer the Riders I don't really care as long as we win the game. Beating the Riders in particular would be an added bonus.

riders would be a tougher test IMO but like you say a much sweeter victory.
