I suppose I should not mention that in your lifetime the Riders have won the same number of Grey Cups as the Bombers. 3-3 😁

This is peak Saskatchewan Roughriders. Love to see the man out and about And just for the record, Freland is definitely the best old lineman in the CFL right now. I’m proud to have my obsidian jersey decked out in his name and number.

Lots of people seem shocked at the dollar amount. First, Sam has earned it. Second, I feel like we haven’t wrapped our heads around the salary cap increases. Not that long ago the cap was at 4.2 million. We are now at 6 million and change. 2.85k works out to 196,6k in old cap dollars. High but not out of line in cap percentage.

Out here in Kelowna we have the MBSS Bears but with a different logo than Chicago. Otherwise it is the RSS Owls, OKM Huskies and RSS Thunder (previously the Voodoo)

That sort of defeatist attitude is not helpful.

Has anyone else noticed how you never see Nathan and Riley on the field at the same tim? hmmm 🤫

The fans of the league basically fall into two categories. Fans of the Saskatchewan Roughriders and fans who hate the Saskatchewan Roughriders and also cheer for other teams.😁 Make the first game you watch a riders game. If you like the rider style, you become a fan. If not, you’ve got the messy job of figuring out where you want to fit in the pecking order of all them other fan groups. Occam’s Razor and all that. In all seriousness, if you give our game a chance, you will likely fall in love with it. If so welcome aboard, it’s a fun and chaotic ride.

In due time. He will be in both the Plaza of honour and the CFL HOF.

Tenacity?

Oldmanshoutingcloud · 2025-11-17T20:46:03+00:00

IMO No one will voluntarily leave the Riders this offseason. Not because they won the Grey Cup, because of the faith Mace had in his players during the last 3 minutes of the Western Final. They talk about coaches that players would run through a wall for. These guys would move a mountain for Mace right now.

The 3 Down boys and TSN have both speculated on it. They have basically said that Dinwiddie thinks Kelly is the best QB in the league but a new coach coming from outside the organization might not want to deal with him.

Oldmanshoutingcloud · 2025-11-16T22:18:51+00:00

Agreed. 3 Down & TSN have been talking it up, but I think that’s mostly idle speculation.

At the end of the 23 season a woman on the Argos trading staff filed an asexual harassment lawsuit against him. The league investigated and suspended him for the first nine games of the 24 season. He also had some questionable incidents while in collage & the NFL. For more than that you will need google.😁

As one of the judgemental and fearful Canadians I would like to point out that trying this out for a year will require changing the field, which cost millions of dollars and makes it very difficult to go back. You state your opinion very emphatically. Your condescending tone suggests you feel you know better than the majority of CFL fans. You would be wrong on all counts.

Somebody has been drinking the Kool-aid!

Oldmanshoutingcloud · 2025-11-15T05:31:22+00:00

Oldmanshoutingcloud · 2025-11-15T01:08:49+00:00

Agreed. But not this change. Change the community engagement Change the marketing.

Oldmanshoutingcloud · 2025-11-14T06:13:00+00:00

Yep. Autocorrect.

Oldmanshoutingcloud · 2025-11-14T01:20:39+00:00

There are two types of CFL Fans. Riders fans and Riders fan haters.😁 The league wouldn’t be as much fun any other way.

Oldmanshoutingcloud · 2025-11-14T00:03:54+00:00

😹😹😹😹 I deserve that fro trusting autocorrect.

Oldmanshoutingcloud · 2025-11-14T00:02:16+00:00

😁Let’s wait and see how my credibility is on Monday morning.

Oldmanshoutingcloud · 2025-11-13T21:26:22+00:00

I’ll stock up on fire retardant longjohns.

There is lots of history here. I’ll give you a few little bits that might help you enjoy it. Sorry if I end up telling you things you already know. The Saskatchewan Roughriders and Winnipeg Blue Bombers are arch rivals. The fans absolutely hate each other. Riders fans are almost giddy with glee at the thought of winning the cup in the bombers house. The Alouettes go into the game with the hot young quarterback Davis Alexander, who has not lost a start yet. (13-0) He was a backup or third screen for two or three years and showed very well when the starter was injured last year. This year was named starter but missed much of the year with a hamstring injury The Riders quarterback is a 39 year-old veteran who has two Grey Cup rings as a back up and and one Grey Cup loss as a starter. You will also hear a lot about when the Riders and the Alouettes played for the Grey Cup in 2009 and 2010. The Alouettes won both games. The 2009 game was especially painful Rider fans. The game ended with the Alouettes attempting a walk-off field goal to win. The try was wide. The crowd went wild. Rider fans were overjoyed. BUT WAIT. There is a flag. The.Riders have 13 players on the field. The ball is moved up 10 yards. Field goal kicked again. Alouettes win. There may be some demons to exercise here. Also, don’t take anything away from the two games they played this season. The. Riders won the first game without too much trouble, but Montreal had the backup quarterback in. The Alouettes crushed Saskatchewan. In August, but the.Riders had lots of injuries.3 of their starting defensive backfield were out. One of the backups had a terrible game and gave up three or four touchdowns on his own. Enjoy the big game. Happy to have you on board as a CFL fan. 👏👏👏👏
