Costa Maragos and Alex Freedman Throw Down

The Premiers, Members of Parliament and Mayors all have bets but CBC News anchors? It’s insanity! The bet is simple loser wears the other teams jersey for a broadcast and will no doubt the lowest ratings of the year. BTW, CBC Saskatchewan News Anchor Costa Maragos’ has a pretty [...]

Grey Cup Preview: Riders vs. Bombers

A special RFTW Grey Cup preview.
How to beat the Riders:
On O: Throw it. When the Bombers played the Riders, and played them better than every other CFL team, they passed. With Kevin Glenn out, all the talk has been about Charles Roberts running the ball but Ryan Dinwiddie just has to get the ball near [...]

Kerry Joseph = Big Man On Campus

With the “Who is Ryan Dinwiddie” talk dominating Grey Cup week we thought we’d post this video of a much younger Kerry Joseph. The Riders number 4 is wearing number 7 but throwing for six. Joseph was a standout QB at McNeese State where he set records and won awards. After [...]

“Let The Animals Loose”

How in the world was this guy able to film the Riders inside the helmet? Someone was not doing their job. Regardless it’s a great NFL Films style look at the Roughrider players before their home playoff game against the Calgary Stampeders. Kitwana Jones is the one you can clearly hear [...]

K-Jo 4 MOP – Lions Sweep

It was a west division sweep last night at the Rogers CFL Player Awards in Toronto. Kerry Joseph took home the night’s biggest prize as Most Outstanding Player. The B.C. Lions will not get the Grey Cup but they apparently have the best Rookie and Defensive player – Cameron Wake, Canadian – Jason Clermont, – [...]

Grey Cup, Say What?!: Part I

All week we’ll post some of the best quotes or anecdotes surrounding the big game. Here’s a taste:
“Shucks, Saskatchewan, Winnipeg? Man, there’ll be so many cows and horses and I’m about to buy some stock in Molson because they’re not going to have enough beer out there.” Blue Bombers receiver Milt Stegall to The Canadian [...]

Rider Fans = Zaniness

An estimated 1,500 fans greeted the Western division champion Saskatchewan Roughriders at 1:30 AM on Monday. This is all old news by now. But the videos that follow are pretty unreal.
This one is a little longer but it has some reaction from the players.

CFL Update: We Suck

What can we say, we’ve dropped the ball like B.K. Williams. Last week we failed to provide our readers with any sort of semi-final post mortem or a division final preview and that is inexcusable. We apologize. And for the record we would have picked the Riders to cover but to lose (like all of [...]

West Semi Preview: Stamps v. Riders

We’ll breakdown each and every playoff game with a special RFTW preview.
How to beat the Riders:
This is actually very cut and dry for the Stampeders – take out the crowd. If Henry Burris can get an early lead it will greatly increase his nteams chances of negating a blood thirsty Rider crowd. The Stamps have [...]
