https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikiped...iders_logo.pnghttps://upload.wikimedia.org/wikiped...ue_Bombers.png
Source It's that special time of year, when the Saskatchewan Roughriders and the Winnipeg Blue Bombers and the two great provinces of Manitoba and Saskatchewan, Cities of Regina and Winnipeg meet on on the grid iron to compete for CFL Man/Sask. supremacy. When and Where Location: Regina Labour Day Classic September 4, 2016 Location: Winnipeg Banjo Bowl September 10, 2016 |
I hope we (bombers) sweep the 2 games, have the stars aligned to make this a possiblity after the long..LDC drought? Is the Banjo bowl trophy shined up and ready to be presented to the Bombers already? hmmm :P
|
No way Bumblers take the LDC. Riders at 0-9 had no trouble handling them last year. This year we are WAY better at 1-8! :yes:
|
At this point the Riders are more likely to be forced to forfeit the game for roster infractions than they are to win the LDC.

hahah, let the fun begin! Should be no contest this year. But as Stormer mentioned, Blue thought it was a gimmie last time.

Riders in week 9 of a rebuild
Bombers in Year 3 of a rebuild Riders by 2 TDs. |
I find it very difficult pumping the tires of a team that has had problems tying their own shoe laces for much of the season, but here it goes:
I think the Riders will play moderately better than average and ...... thats all I've got. Go anonymous Rider players go....whoever you are. |
Bomber fan attendance at the LDC has been dwindling that last few years. It should be better this year with the Bombers' better record and Rider fans not hoarding tickets. It is way more fun when there are lots of them at Mosaic taking in the thrashing.

The Riders are real bad this season and anything less than a thumping by the Big Blue will be a let down!

I propose a compromise: the Riders take the LDC as usual, while the Bombers earn the privilege of being the banjo-pickin' hicks. :D
Also, I'd think savvy Winnipeg fans would be able to find tickets to join the annual Bummer beatdown, err I mean prairie party, by searching kijiji.ca, UsedRegina.com, Ticketmaster resale, etc. |
Dressler set to return for the LDC, strange how that works out, family will be wearing Blue and Gold at the game..he did quite well for the Riders over the years in the TD category for the LDC...:tup:
