Rod Pedersen: Rider Insider
A tornado has struck the trailer park.
And like with any natural disaster, it’s going to take weeks and weeks to clean up.
The 2015 Saskatchewan Roughriders’ regular season began in the worst possible fashion Saturday night as quarterback Darian Durant left the lid-lifting game just before halftime on a cart. Durant’s Riders were trailing the visiting Winnipeg Blue Bombers 15-14 at the time.
With back-up pivot Kevin Glenn coming in for Durant for the second half, Saskatchewan flirted with the lead. The game was tied 23-23 going into the fourth quarter and Saskatchewan even led by a field goal with 10 minutes to go.
