Re: Rich Dowrey - 3rdDown in dire condition

Thanks for sharing the picture and story Derek, both are totally awesome! I'm glad I got to meet you this past summer, I think you're a good guy, and it''s going to take more than a couple of comments in the newspaper, written by a sensationalist beat reporter, to change that. Ritch is way too aweso...

Re: Lions Release Jason Clermont

I was a bit shocked when I first heard this news. It could be a blessing in disguise though. Hopefully JC just stays in Regina and drives on sask drive to piffles park instead of the airport (referring to one of his quotes in the media). Clermont is the type of guy who'd catch a football in the midd...

Re: Getting Ready For The Riders

However, Dominguez will not play and that's a very big receiver out of their lineup. Why ? Is he injured again ? (A seemingly) healthy scratch. They're going with a young cement hands in Bowman. DJ Flick is another seemingly healthy scratch. Who knows what's really going on with these decisions. Us...

Re: LU: Riders to win

In 2006, Lions went 2-3 in their first 5, including a defeat at Taylor Field that should have been a victory. Then came the famous rant in the locker room by Dave Ritchie, with the other coaches joining in. Things happened, including the departure of Antonio Warren and Sam Young. A veteran group to...

Was there seriously ever a doubt that Kent Austin would win it? :beer:

Re: Eskimos Sneak Under the Cap

Well, speaking of rumours...it has been suggested that Sask has sold more Rider merchandise than the rest of the league combined, and that they are No. 3 team in the country (after the Leafs & Habs). The Riders also receive massive local sponsorship revenue, $5M in 2006, and with winning the GC...

Re: Riders Trade Fred Perry to the Smoe's

You mean like Rider fans are doing right now. Truth is Reider, you are correct about this. Many people will give greater latitude when it is their team, their player. I expect that to a degree as just being human. I also have seen and read enough of your posts both here and other places to know tha...

Re: Riders Trade Fred Perry to the Smoe's

Sorry, Southern Hospitality? For a rival? ? As for ET, he bailed out of BC in early 1995 after fluking out a GC win as the GM here, riding on Ritchie's coattails. His thank you to the team and the fans was to bolt. Sound familiar? It should. Calm down Lawrence, you're going to have a heart attack. ...

Re: Riders Trade Fred Perry to the Smoe's

Not really. Just not a Rider site. Yeah I guess I should have expected some southern hospitality after what the Riders did to your Lions in the playoffs. It's all good.. If ET was a Lion (and 07GC champs) and this similar situation occurred, something tells me that Lions fans would not be quite so ...
