I wouldn't call a 20-17 win MASSIVE. Important in that they beat the Stamps? absolutely but by no means massive. Massive would be if they had each one a game, were at the end of the regular season and the Riders beat them a 3rd time to win the series and get homefield advantage.

Ya dude, you're right and I'm fully aware. I meant we control our own destiny now, that's all. Cheers!

I meant MASSIVE in terms of context fella, not score. Thanks, take care!

Donkays are public enemy # 1 to Rider Nation. A win over them is always massive and an excuse to get home at Midnight or later. 
Montreal , Elks twice and Hammy to close out season. 8 points for the taking.....but ..Ha , you know.

Toronto almost dropped the ball going into victory formation with 44 seconds to go, they missed BC still had a time out Doh!
If it wasn't for young kicker having the worst day of his life they would've lost that one.
The Green O line is a little better although Cody doesn't get much time to throw and Mass's play calling leaves a lot to be desired. They did pull off an important win securing a playoff spot.
My buddy and I exchange shots for each others teams,
this year the Elks are so pitiful I'm holding back, I think I'm growing a conscience.
Go Riders!

I think Toronto should be checked out for trying to lose their game so some bookie could make bucks.
Riders defense won the day[again].
EE proving they couldn't care less about fans or winning. I almost felt sorry for the three people who paid to be in the stands.

A win is a win I guess, 1st pass intercepted one first down in the opening quarter? The Riders O line and play calling needs improvement.
I was impressed with Cornelius, cannon for an arm put up better numbers than Cody
Go Riders!

Oh it was beyond great. Sask only needs to play 2 of the 3 areas of the game to beat the exkimoes. Plus it will always be Sask that gave the exkimoes their first full season without a home game win; like the chumps they are. Plus it makes it even harder for the stamps to win a home game now. The offence could be better but for the majority of the games Cody posts enough points to win. GREAT WIN!!! 😂
Oh and it put several sheckles in my jeans. That is great too.

Not sure how it has any relation or effect on a home win by the Stamps, but it does mean a home playoff game is less likely, if that's what you were trying to say.

Calgary and Sask both have 2 games left. The Riders have 8 wins and the Stumps have 6 wins. One more SK win (or tie) or a CGY loss and the Riders clinch a home playoff game. The Riders play Edmonton in Regina next week. Nothing is guaranteed but I think they’ll be able to squeak that one out. The playoffs will be a different game though. Can the O-Line give CF enough time to throw the ball?Can Mass call a complete game? I think those are the only things holding them back. The D is playing great. Winning the WSF and heading into WPG to play a Bombers team that hadn’t played a meaningful game in a month will be exciting. I remember 1989 and the Riders taking down the 16-2 Eskimos. I was only 12 but that Grey Cup was the greatest Grey Cup finish I’ve ever seen. Seeing a house full of grown men in SK shedding a tear left a lasting impression and cemented my love of the Canadian game.
GO Riders!

No harder to win than to lose, but getting one could be dicey.

Stamps just might win in Sask, will see.
Boring field goal game on right now, Argos - Red Blacks.
Spoke too soon, one big running play, and a TD, ha.
Tor QB Bethel- Thompson (Two-Dads) I doubt will carry them past Ti-Cats in playoffs.

No, my point was with the win last night calgary needs to win both their games and Sask has to lose both their games. This will cause a tie giving the season series to Calgary for the western semi final. That is the only way Calgary gets the home playoff game. As I said last nights win really hemmed in calgarys chances of hosting a game.

Well that will make for some poor ball this week, eh.
Thanks to the EE Sask gets a home playoff game.
BC kinda/sorta poohed the bed.
Poor new guy in Winnipeg sure throws a lot of balls to the opposition.

Well that wraps up the regular season.
One thing I learned was that a meaningless EE game is still better to watch than a soccer game in EE's stadiumm.

Got three hogs cut up with 2 minutes to spare so we could watch the game.
Nothing better than breaking the Stamps hearts in overtime.
Will that idiot Lemon ever play another pro game?
Most entertaining game of the year and the fans in Regina deserved it.
