Nothing would give me greater pleasure than the Riders finishing in the basement in the CFL west. The franchise itself doesn't bother me too much ....outside, of course:

-obnoxious advertising in other cities
-(once) having a GM who's a convicted sex offender
-advertising that they're 100 years old when in fact 100 years ago there was so such thing as the rough riders, nor were they playing football

What really bothers me is the fan base. They're clowns. In a province filled with farms, hicks, racists, and NOTHING to do, they get all worked up over their Riders (when they win). That's fine, bandwaggoning is nothing new, even on a state/provincial level. No, what bothers me is the false premise that they live under. That they're the same quality of fan as the Packer fan. You aren't. You're ignorant hooligans who power drink at a crappy shed they put a field on...then dump manure on a lawn in anger after a loss. You boo and run Ron Lancester out of town then suddenly have a huge love affair with him decades later. "The little general" you people lovingly call him. It's like watching a wife beater who divorced a poor woman at 40 then wails in tears at her funeral after 30+years of estrangement.

I also love the equally hilarious and absurd notion that Saskatchewan is the “Texas” of Canada for football. This lunacy isn’t even worth responding to, it’s just funny to see it written.

Rough Rider fans are the embodiment of what's wrong with the CFL and they make me sick at a very personal level. Nothing will make me feel better than when that loser franchise goes back in the toilet where they belong and the stadium goes back to 18~k people and the chaches who show up now go back to power drinking on their parents tractors.
