They just took the schedule down off the front page of Riderville.com so I guess they were not suppose to post it until the league published theirs on cfl.ca. Still my guess is that those dates stick.

A small consolation is one of the Thursday games is before the long weekend. Last year we couldn't even crack 30,000 with the Eskimos here on the Friday of the B.C Day Weekend.

That's a real tough one to sell but maybe more people will be in town on the Thursday. It also looks to be the Riders only regular season visit. That means the Eskimos and Stamps are in here twice to get to 9.[/i]

If it's 8:30 Regina, is that 7:30 or 6:30 here?

I believe it is a 1 hour difference at that time of year and I adjusted the times to Pacific.

If that snippet is accurate, it's a pretty poor schedule: Just one visit from the team's biggest draw, and that's on a Thursday night before a summer long weekend. I'll miss the old end-of-season, Saturday night clash under the Dome.

Regina folk want to have a season ending game in their homefield, so you can appreciate that something has to give in the end.

Rider fans have been longing for a home game in November but I'm not sure this is what they had in mind. :wink:
