So that's how you Rider fans have managed to survive all these years. Bet on the Riders to lose but enjoy it if they win. Either way, you come out a winner.

I voted for Calgary because of their 8-1 home record and 4-1 record against Saskatchewan in the past two years (2-0 at home), but this is a playoff game and anything can happen. I was hoping for Calgary to win but now I'm not so sure. Saskatchewan has a better defence but Calgary's offence is more d...

The Eskimo fans have one more home game to express their appreciation to the organization for the 34 years of playoff appearances, or to express their frustration at the current coaching staff and players for breaking that streak.

By comparison... here is the attendance thread for the ?05 Western Final. http://www.lionbackers.com/cheer/viewtopic.php?t=7930 The reason I wanted to dig this up was to see the initial number of tickets bought by season ticket holders. It was very low (12,000) and set the stage for the disapointin...

Aaron Hunt has done nothing but good things for us this year. He has proven himself to be a worthy candidate for Rookie of the Year honours and should be locked up long-term by Wally. Nice pic of Hunt. I agree he's been a great addition to the team but I don't think he qualifies as a rookie because...

Glad you enjoyed it, MB. I saw you pacing back and forth in the stands before the game. Is this an exercise regimen or some kind of pregame ritual?

It was a good crowd on a bad day (Friday). Unfortunately, the season likely finishes with two meaningless games on good days (Saturdays). I hope people get pumped about seeing this team play and seeing Geroy perhaps go for 2,000 yards and the record. I also hope fans realize this year's team is wort...

well what has that got to do with a home game here Friday night at 7 pm? where are the fans? why are they staying away? There must be some answers out there. Is it the dome? Is it that Dickenson may not play again? Or does it have to do with the fact that it is a FRIDAY night game after Labour day?...

So someone please explain, exactly why did the 1994 regular season finale draw such a large crowd even though the Lions were only average and had already settled for third in the west? The 1994 finale honoured Lui Passaglia, with $1 from every ticket sold going to a scholarship in Lui's name at SFU...

A Winnipeg victory eliminates Hamilton from playoff contention and likely deflates the Ticat spirits on the eve of their game with the Lions. A Montreal victory gives Hamilton so much more to play for on Saturday.

Frankly, the topic bores me so I haven't voted for QB/receiver combo but I was interested enough in this poll to vote for zero. 8)

I thought JM and Satan were on opposite sides. This is getting confusing again.

Got it. And I vote Yes.

Maybe it's the time zones.
