Riders Circle Wagons against Lions
Oh it has been such fun in Rider Nation this week with the bonehead decisions of Rider Head Honcho, Cory `Chamblin being questioned by one and all and resulting in his making a statement that he doesn’t care’ blah blah blah.
Of course, of more interest was the ongoing injury situation.
The Riders have lost Levi Steinhaeuser (backup D-lineman and long snapper) and Weldon Brown (apparently on making a face mask play on a BC Lion which proves that karma is the proverbial one). When you add the two offensive tackles lost by Calgary (say what you want about all the games this past weekend, that accomplishment is the most remarkable in my eyes) in the same game and Johnny Sears proving he is paper mache tough in Hamilton following his hot tub days in the city where hope goes to die – Winnipeg, and the injury situation in the CFL is really remarkable.
Personally I don’t see Chamblin going during this season. He will be given the benefit of a doubt, but a loss Friday and something more terrifying than booing or angry 13 year old boys posting on message boards will take place.
