The Roughriders are cooked in my opinion. Wishful thinking might have them finish 3rd in the West, no higher and quite possibly 4th or 5th. Party is ova!

I’m a stamps fan but truly disappointed in the team for the past few years.

Heck we used to get the Safeway fun zone tickets back in the 70s as kids and then did the jailbreak to climb the fence and to get to the general seating,
Some of us made it, some didn’t, ha.

Jake is not the answer, you can’t just have one big play maybe once per quarter, you need 2 or 3 like what the Elks were doing, and counting turnovers of course.

Expecting a home and home sweep by the Elks.

Well, I went to the labour rematch on Saturday.
It's the first whole game of cfl foot ball I've watched in a few years.
What a blast.
I'm considering paying attention again.

Riders certainly are cooked..again . They lost their last 7 games straight the previous two seasons. Jeremy O Day has had his chances and i hope he is skidded soon. He can take Harris with him.

Stampeders tried their hardest to give Montreal the game. The two un - disciplined bush leauge penalties on the late drive were back breakers. They were lucky to get a tie. But , they should get two points when the Riders visit next Friday.
Good to see T-Cats get a win.

Does anyone have any insight as to why Montreal didn't take the field for the our national anthem, at the Stamps game last Saturday?

Was there a coordination problem?
Was there a protest or a statement being made?
Was it a Quebec/Alberta issue?

I hope to never see that again; whatever it was!!

Riders Win ! Ryquell Armstead sure helped , 207 yds rushing in first game as a Rider.
T Cats are on a roll , 47 yd FG for the win.

The cheerleaders could of beat Ottawa yesterday. Riders needed 7 FG's to get their win , the steady 4-5 yard passes made a boring game. But a win is a win.
Ottawa was bad but the Eskimos were as bad or worse in the 55-27 blow out to Bombers. Glad to see Hammy get another win over boy wonder and the Lions.

That was the most boring game I've watched in a long time. But yes a win is a win.

Riders pulled off the win. The pass interference call that basically sealed the game looked a little iffy to me. But they are in the playoffs and if they can beat BC at home next Saturday they get a home playoff game. Beats the dickens out of the last two seasons of 6-12 records.

Well the Sask defense certainly showed up the BC offense today. They not only have a home playoff game but it could be the West final.
Go Riders

Bombers and Riders both have a bye week. Then Saturday the 26th Bombers face Al's and Riders take on Donkays. A chance Ridrrs could end up first in the West.
Crazy season.

Thank goodness I don’t bet money on your predictions…. Headed to the West final after today. Time will tell but they will finish at least 2nd in the west!

Well the Riders fizzled yesterday, the bombers pretty much controlled the entire game.
The eastern final went down to the wire, Argos and Bombers next weekend in the grey cup In Vancouver, should be interesting

Well the day is here. So far there haven’t been any revelations. Don't have a dog in the fight but leaning towards Toronto for the win.

Like to see Arbuckle win it for TO and through the grapevine, stick it to my woke Eskimos franchise.

BC stadium has some sort of fog thing going on or what is that? Almost like its being played in a smokey/forest fire environment.
