August 8, 2015: Saskatchewan Roughriders vs. Toronto Argonauts

As Argonaut fans, we all have a chip on our shoulder. Dumping on Toronto's other teams has no positive outcome and increases the animosity shown to us. I know our struggles, but acting like a small band of punks, only ensures we stay that way.

I have my own reasons for not liking any Toronto teams other than the Argos and Leafs. The success of the Jays started the "world class city" thing that had people look down on the CFL. The addition of the Raptors made it even worse. Since the Argos and Leafs successfully co-existed for many years prior to this, I hold no animosity towards the Leafs.

Childish? Perhaps, but it is how I feel.

I don't recall Rogers being this aggressive before the trade deadline like this year bringing in Price and Tulowitzki. The conspiracy theorist in me is saying part of the reason Rogers is aggressive to win is to build the momentum to keep the Argos squashed down. But that's just paranoid conjecture on my part.

Rider depth chart is out. Have a field day against that same, shitty defence.

Great conspiracy theory, but the simplest explanation is usually the best: they've got a G.M desperate to keep his job, so he sold the farm.

I'd love to see the Argos to have a field day against your D, but I'm assuming nothing.

Same lineup, same schemes=disaster.
