**Correction:
I reviewed the history of the Roughriders this morning on the Roughrider website: riderville.com/team-history/
.After a long history beginning in 1910 as the The Regina Ruby Club, the Regina Roughriders name was changed to the Saskatchewan Roughriders in 1948.
So:
Congratulations to the
'Saskatchewan' Roughriders
for bringing the Grey Cup home to Saskatchewan on November 16, 2025.

I have no Rider paraphernalia
I seldom know
when the Riders are playing
I’ve been to only
one game many years ago.
I flipped channels and landed on:
3rd Quarter:
The Regina Roughriders ahead
4th Quarter:
The Montreal Alouettes pushed from behind
The game was fought hard and brilliantly ~
The Regina RoughRiders are bringing the Grey Cup home!!

All I saw was glorious clouds
reflected in shades of peach
from the setting sun
shredded banks,
long strips
or little puffs
I had to stop, lift my eyes and
breathe deeply of the soft evening.
Where was even one other child
to share in that magnificent sight?
“We teach children how to measure and how to weigh.
We fail to teach them how to revere, how to ease wonder and awe.”
