It's unique but still if you're owned by a major media outlet the least you can do is get the team names right... http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/20 ... t-retires/ Thanks Florio.
You mean the football universe doesn't know how to spell Roughriders? I thought Priders said that Rider Nation was bigger than the Dallas Cowboys. No respect, no respect...
Even the CFL can't decide how it's spelled. Is it Roughriders or Rough Riders? In light of that I guess we can't really fault outside media for minor typos.
Ottawa Rough Riders: Loggers riding trees down the Ottawa River to be processed. Ottawa Roughriders: Named after Teddy Roosevelt's brigade in South America.
Well, you can be a Rough Rider riding down trees on a river or an army brigade member under Teddy Roosevelt. Take your pick. [hr] This may explain it more... Ah, thank goodness for the National Film Board & You Tube : [video=youtube]http://http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=82tbm5Sr1sw[/video]
