10:00 PM, hopefully it is more like 8:30 with the lions going into half time with a 30 point lead.

Yes, that would certainly be nice. Easier on my ticker too !

Yep, Nealon might see game action from the sounds of things, KK out, Dominguez out, and I think we're leaving Davin Bush and Eddie Davis at home and subbing in Lamar Lee and R. Robinson. Jackie Mitchel might be back though.
Sounds like it's going to be a practice for you guys.

Are you sure about Dominguez? I thought I read that the Riders were seriously considering putting him in. Bush and Davis sitting as well, makes no sense to me as much as I would enjoy that being the case. I guess we will just have to wait for the rosters to be annouced.

Riders are employing a new stradegy this year......ride a 3 game losing streak into the playoffs without a win in a month......

Seems to be the Lions strategy as well

Judging by what your saying Reider it sounds like the Rider brass are not too serious about going all out, but who could blame them...

Lions-46 / Riders-13

It doesn't matter who the Riders send out, they always play us tough and I'm sure this Saturday will be no different.

The Lions will have to bring the "A" game.

I was serous about Dominguez cuz word had it from the riders that there was almost a zero chance of him dressing for saturday.

THEN.... today? on riderville (I don't have a membership) aparently Matt Dominguez himself said he's dressing for saturday and that leaked onto riderfans.com. So I guess as of now he is going to be in the lineup (according to him anyways).

Either way, I don't think he's 100%, and I don't think he'll be a game breaker on saturday. I hope they don't use him too much, some of them leo's might try and give him some extra shots!

This is where this game will be used as a preseason type game, Dominguez will get some playing time to test out his knee in game action for the Montreal game, no need for him to shut down in Montreal burning a position spot.

He also will only likely play on first downs and not used for blocking much.
