Back in August the Calgary Herald produced a 'shameful' Top 10 on why Stamps' Fans find Rider Fans annoying. Since Top 10s are kind of my thing - and to rebuff that article here are:
The Top 10 Reasons Stamps' Fans should enjoy Rider Fans:
10. Beer Sales. Hello? If Riders' Fans drank rain water instead of beer Calgary would never have flooded.
9. Riders' Fans start early . . .
8 ...and even get their pets' involved
