Tonight was an opportunity to bury the Lions in the standings... but, it slipped away, along with the ball eight times. The offence has fallen apart and there's many reasons for it. I was really hoping the Riders would clinch first place with considerable time till the end of the season and be able to book a flight to Regina for the West Final on a seat sale... damn.
Technically, they're still tied for first place. The injuries are devastating and I think they're more than a coincidence. I would certainly question the training staff, nutritionists, et al, cause something is wrong. Same thing happened with the Montreal Canadiens a few years ago and they fired everyone in that department solving the issue.
And finally, I cannot stand Wally Buono. Is there another coach who's teams choke so much in the playoffs? Having his teams in the first place games is a waste cause you know his team is going to choke. If the first place game is in that crap dome again, I will really be disappointed.
Okay, one more point... Kerry Joseph are you enjoying your contract in Toronto? You could've been in Riderville. Let's face it, the Riders miss his energy and Joseph misses success. However, the Riders made the right decision and Joseph did not.
I have a headache and cannot take anymore tonight. Oh, and a big thank you to Don Matthews for throwing the game in Calgary tonight. Good on ya! Henry Burris gives you a 'tip of the stetson for that.
Good night and as usual...
Go Riders Go! /=S=/
