Yes, the parade in Regina starts at noon today and goes from Mosaic Stadium to the Legislature.

I hope to see the Lions drawing as many for their Grey Cup victory celebrations next year as well!!!!! :lol:

Saskatchewan Premier Brad Wall will be at the parade too. Where was Gordon Campbell last year? :?

Thank you all for the very kind words. It's been 3 days and it still hasn't really hit me.

I think the best part was seeing Kerry Joseph get emotional at the end. Not that I ever doubted his character, but it really proved where his heart is. Much like Dickenson, Clermont, Glatt, Brent Johnson, Ty Williams and many others last year, it's good to see players who work hard, play to win and respect the game get rewarded. That's all I ever ask of a player. Watching Gene Makowsky and Jeremy O'Day lift the mug was great, I mean all they did was bust their asses for like 12 years.

The Riders were full value for the price of admission Sunday evening...

To the entire Saskatchewan organization, and especially their long suffering fans, congratulations and well done!

We look forward to renewing our great rivalry next season. :rockin:

Look how easily Eric Tillman can pick up the Grey Cup with one hand.

Pretty good for a guy who was in hospital with heart trouble, not even allowed to get on a plane, just ten days before. But holding it by the top cup portion, after last year's episode, that's frowned upon! For shame! :tease:

Happy for you guys and gals, wildthing.

Saskatchewan is the heartland and the bread basket of our little, old country.

Good on ya. :thup:

You get bragging rights for one year, and the clock is running. Don't be too overbearing towards the rest of us.

To all of you in Rider country. :rockin:

:thup: Exactly, the Riders are the Champs until a CFL :wink: team wins the Grey Cup Game next November.

For Schultz, growing up being a Rider fan and being able to play for your favorite team - that would be dream come true - especially when you can show the Grey Cup ring.

That smile is not faked or forced, folks - it's the real deal. You have to appreciate, at least the emotion that Scott was/is feeling.

That being said - that was then - this is now - the Riders have HUGE targets on their back as the defending champions - SO looking forward to Friday!!!

BC scares me - I don't know what team is going to show up - the team we saw in week one or the team we saw last year...
