Your jealousy is quite evident. When you can put more than 23K in your stadium for a playoff game then come back and talk to us. (hell I heard you guys were giving tickets away in Winnipeg). Sorry whiteout but your barely in the same league as Lions and Rider fans.

Semi finals are always a tough sell, and it was a novelty for rider fans this year. Im not embarrassed whatsoever, why would I be? If I was in Winnipeg I would have gone, and that's all I can do.

there was a time when it was not such a novelty for the riders, and I am pretty sure they still sold out.

Year in and year out we put up very good attendance, semi finals have always been a hard sell in Winnipeg. If that makes us a bad fan base in your eyes, I couldn't care less.

Oh yes, if fans of a team in the CFL are going to declare themselves best fans in the world, they're going to have to answer for such a retarded comment.

I've held season tickets for both the stamps and bombers numerous times my life, been to a grey cup, and followed the CFL since I can remember. That's all the foundation I need, personally

The Rider Fans have been over the top for the last two weeks, and knocking every other team. Plus give unsolicited critique about other teams. You know, I thought their last Grey Cup was way back in 1987 or was it 88....Because they speak so authoratively..on the sujbect, it must have been just last year. No wait , the Lions won last year....they don't have a leg to stand on...

using the fact that they havent won in 19 yrs as a mark against is wrong. What it does is speak volumes of how good they are as fans. Lets see how fans of other teams are when their teams have such a drought. Its a pat on the back to acknowledge how well they support their team through and after a 19 yr drought.
