Boy the "Regina is the center of the universe" zealots won't like this one.
Regina gets the Riders for the other 50 weeks in the year, I’m sure Regina zealots won’t care about this one
ahhhh…pretty sure they will!
Really a no brainer for the Riders, good to market the team in Saskatoon. I am from Regina and as a zealot I dont mind Saskatoon having the Riders practice in Saskatoon in May because I get to see them in July and in the years to come in the Palace while the folks in Saskatoon can and should have the team practice in May.
Regina Zealot
I'm from Regina and love the fact they hold training camp in Saskatoon. Great for the Province and the fans.

You guys aren't the zealots. 99.9999% of Regina folks are not. It's the couple idiots that come out and talk about what a piss poor sports town Stoon is. One tried saying that the Kinsmen dinner featuring Bobby Orr was a complete dud while really it had been sold out for weeks. Those are the kind of idiots I can't stand. You guys are alright.
zealots don't mind, after all the name Is "Saskatchewan" Roughriders.
zealots by the creek.
This zealot is okay with the deal. It worked out quite fine in 2013, and besides, I can go watch the team practice throughout the season.

To the anti-Region zealot, anon #1 – nice try cupcake!
Stick your Zealots and cupcakes where they belong and grow up. Common sense is all we like to read on here , not childish talk like the above.
Hmmm. One silly comment spawns a bunch of others. Go figure. The solution is simple.
