In some ways it seems like the way Taman runs things (I know he hasn't been there the whole time I'm talking about). Taman seems to gear up (very well mind you) for a year or two run at the Grey Cup, but then spends the next few seasons trying to recover and rebuild. That said, how we haven't been able to find a MLB in 3 years is mind boggling.
I do wish the Riders followed more of the conventional (Stampeders, Alouettes, Ticats) way to build a football team. I doubt that changes as long as Taman is in place, so enjoy the good moments when you can and don't get too down on the bad ones. Most of the Rider fans in my circles get this and support the team no matter the year. Who cares about the rest. I still wear my Riders gear around town and will until November, it's football season.

Oh you're a Riders fans, haha. I didn't understand your objection to my claim that the Stamps injuries have been very significant this season and that the gap between Calgary and the other teams hasn't shrunk considerably like you said, in the other thread.
I was like "Why is this Stamps fan so unfairly and overly critical of the Stamps?". Now I get it.
