What a game. Thanks for the ticket Windom!
It never ceases to amaze me how many Rider fans attend these games. Those around us went from being very talkative and "know-it-all" to complete silence.
I think the fans (those that stayed) made a big difference in the 4th quarter. Maybe the free vuvuzuelas helped, but Durant seemed rattled by the noise and pressure.
Glenn was very good - in fact his passing numbers were better than Durant, before the late come-back began. He spread the ball around beautifully. Cornish and Forzani had bad games. Davis and Tsoumpas should be sat out a game for stupid, selfish penalties.
Perhaps the Riders took away Cornish, forcing Glenn to throw. Glenn responded very well. That is the kind of performance that will galvanize the team and fans behind him.
At the stadium, we did not get a good replay of the Taylor fumble. Was that a good call?
Before the game, we thought we saw director of offiiciating Tom Higgins joking and shaking hands with the Riders coaches, and he walked off the field with them. Is that appropriate?
