Introduction Serena Ryder rocked Harbourfest last weekend so fitting that we start with a song from her. Bombers are coming off the bye week and when they opened the sports section (do people still buy newspapers) they saw that they’re right were they were when they left, i.e. in 3rdplace.

July 18, 2018

Introduction Thanks to Melanie and Bill Cox for this week’s opening song. Rumour has it she was growing tired of my repeats. The opening song reflects what was a common refrain last Friday night after the Bombers (who looked so promising the week before in Montreal), were embarrassed 31-17 in Hamilton. A week earlier it […]
