Calle me a traditionalist, but I wish they would just keep the new name, but go back to older Rider uniforms and black helmets with the white R on them.

Yep, slow night at home. LOL
Even slower here. I wish the goofs with the name rights would cave in and re-glue the Ottawa name back on the team. There was something very ... cfl ... about the Roughriders playing the Roughriders.

Like a Monty Python skit I have to point out that it's the Ottawa Rough Riders vs. the Saskatchewan Roughriders (the latter is the expurgated version).
Ottawa adopted the name in 1898, Sask picked their version in 1923.
