Note: the Labour Day Classic between the Riders and Bombers alternates between the two cities each year, and the Banjo Bowl the following week does as well. Next year will be in Winnipeg on Labour Day and Regina the week after.
No, the Labour Day Classic is always in Saskatchewan. The Riders go to Winnipeg the week after for the Banjo Bowl.
Thank you all for the clarification.
I was having trouble parsing @Mallard’s predictions for a game that, as best I could tell, @Northern_Piper had just given us the rundown and finals of. Holy timeline twister, Batman!
Of course a league with a small number of teams will play one another repeatedly even in a short season. Doing so on successive weekends is extra spicy for the fans.
Speaking as a RedBlacks fan, i have to add that our kicker Lewis Ward broke almost every field goal record, both CFL and NFL, his first year and a bit playing.
I’d cut and paste it here, but it’s too long.
I’m a super fan of Ward.
I have turned into a fair-weather fan.
It has been raining in Regina since 8 a.m.
I am not in the stands. Watching it from a nice warm tv room.
