Oh ya!

How are you taking it Trevor?

Not well. Not f%&^&)*&*( well at all. How do you get a 20-1 lead and then totally fail to score another point in 30 minutes of football. And on top of that, let the other guys score 20 in a row.

To paraphrase Offspring from the Ignition cd track 1 titled Session.
"aaahhhh fuck....fuck fuck fuck.....fuuuuuuuucccck"

And to close with the wise words of the contemporary deep thinker Kermit The Frog....."It aint easy being green."

that's me gloating

[sweetandsol]

Oh Trevor...it's only hard being green when you're that funny Rider color.

Rematch this Saturday in Regina. Don't gloat too hard. I still don't have my voice back from Fridays game. I guess that is the sign of an entertaining contest.

it's only hard being green when you're that funny Rider color.

Dost thou mock the most attractive shade of green? For shame for shame. Tis a much prettier shade than the nausea inspiring combination of forest green and mustard yellow hues that grace the eskischmoes uniform.

Its almost like they were shooting for british racing green, just didn't quite make the mark and figured nobody would notice.

Trevor (Ok, so I wear my team loyalties out on my sleeve for all the world to see...and subsequently stomp on when things aren't going well)

Excuse me!!!!? You out there Trevor??? I have been tied to this whipping poll all afternoon, and quite frankly I'd like you to get it over with........

Huh..what...I have no idea what you are talking about Angelo. Unless you are referring to that..oh..lemme see, what was the score again..oh yeah, 54-14 shellacking that the GandG took today.

Pretty bad when the tsn turning point is the coin toss.

On a less gloating note....The officiating today was awful. On both sides of the ball. Penalties called that weren't penalties. Obvious penalties not called at all. And like I said, on both sides. And what the hell was that with Kerry Joseph getting player of the game. That game was owned by the rider D. Not KJ.

So, two more meetings btwn them this season not counting possible playoff encounters with a current point differential of 39. The next matches should be interesting.

Keep the shiny side up all.

Its game night boys and girls.

First meeting in Edmonton...21 to 20 squeaker for the esks
Second meeting in Regina...54 to 14 blowout for the riders
Rematch in Regina tonight and its a sellout @ taylor field. 9 Eskimo starters out...7 Rider starters out.

Esks coming off another squeaker against the cellar dwelling Ticats while the riders are on a 3 game win streak...
Riders points for...third in the league
Edmonton..second last in the league
Riders points against...lowest allowed in the league
Edmonton...most allowed in the league
Can you feel the tension boys and girls

I would say good luck...but it wouldn't really be sincere.

Cya after the game

Trevor

[coyoteran]

9 lead changes
1 hour rain delay
cbc dropping coverage of the game and playing a b movie in its place
eskishmoes beating the roughies bad in the first half
and then totally not showing up for the second half (sound familiar)
absolutlely attrocious officiating
and the riders scoring a boatload in the second half to

WIN!!!!!!

Yeah baby. Riders take the series lead 2-1 with a 47 point differential.

Cya forest and mustard.

I am so petty.
