	Ottawa Rough Riders - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Although in later years the name was said to derive from logging, the team played from 1925 on in the colours of the Teddy Roosevelt's regiment in the Spanish-American War, which, with the date of the renaming, suggests that the name comes from the war.
		The Rough Riders' last and final appearance in the Grey Cup game was 1981 against the heavily favoured Edmonton Eskimos.
		But a controversial double interference call against Riders receiver Tony Gabriel in the second half proved to be costly, as the Eskimos, led by backup quarterback Tom Wilkinson, came from behind to beat the Riders 26–23 on a game-winning field goal by kicker Dave Cutler.

		The Riders finished second in the regular season standings and were once again able to defeat the North Shore Broncos in the first round of the playoffs to advance to the Manson Cup Final.

		The Canadian Rough Riders were the heroes of the Spanish-American War, imitated but never equalled by the squad of the same name led by Theo Roosevelt: a New York police commissioner quickly and deservingly relegated to the trash bin of history.

		In 1996 the CFL, weary of the fiscally inept Ottawa team, revoked the Rough Riders' membership and would likely have run then-owner, the clueless Horn Chen, out of town on a rail had he actually spent enough time in the city for a suitably angry mob to be gathered.
