What if CP hadn't melted down in Wpg, would Travis be playing?

The "what if" game will kill ya. I'm just thankful Harris is as advertised

C'mon, no major.
Sports can be a peculiar thing. When partaking in fiction, like a book or movie, we adopt a "Willing Suspension of Disbelief" for enjoyment's sake. There's a similar force at work in sports: "Willing Suspension of Rationality". If you doubt this, listen to any conversation between rival team fans. You even see it among fans of the same team. Fans argue over who's the better QB or goalie, and selectively cite stats that support their views while ignoring those that don't.

Every year the Riders miss the playoffs, an angel gets their wings.

Well done Lions, nothing warms my heart more than seeing the half toothed mob (apologies to SM) suffer through another off season of excuses
I'd love you to say it to my face because you'd only say it once...if you ever had the courage to say it at all!! Blitz, 05/24/2008

Safe to project a Lions victory and the off season officially starts for the Riders.

Yes Yes! Can all the obnoxious, over the top Rider fans now shut up!! I hope they are brutal for years to come.

You are not "Canada's Team" when everyone outside of Saskatchewan (except for those that moved elsewhere from Sask) hate you.
