Riders Run Roughshod

Saskatchewan embarrassed Hamilton for the second straight week, notching a 51-8 victory at Ivor Wynne Stadium. Granted, beating Hamilton is currently as satisfying (and challenging) as scoring at JD's on a Saturday night - but hey, a win is a win.

Actually, the Riders have now won two in a row for the first time this season. Already the debate has begun about which quarterback, Rocky Butler or Kerry Joseph, should get the start on Labour Day. For those requiring a reminder, one of those gentlemen is the highest paid player in Rider team history, and the other is Rocky Butler. Clearly, if Joseph is suitably recovered from his bruised knee, he starts. And Butler provides a competent alternative, if the need arises.

Geez, two straight blow-out wins. I wonder who is getting fired this week?
