Grey Cup 2017

November 26, 2017

Greetings from Ottawa. Apparently there’s some sort of sporting event on later today! Calgary seems to be the odds on favourite but I don’t think you can count Toronto out. Not with Ricky Ray behind centre. I’m hoping for a close game and in the end: Toronto 33 Calgary 30 Have a great Grey Cup […]

Two good match ups on the slate today. In Calgary much is being said about Calgary’s 3 game losing streak to end the season. I’m not counting out Bo Though……Calgary 33 Edmonton 27. In Toronto BMO Field will have the most bums in the seats since the Argos moved there. Lots of those bums will […]

A month ago, Friday’s Bombers vs. Stamps game was being heralded as a first place showdown. Winner to take all and host the West final. Fast forward 4 weeks and Calgary enters the game with a lock on first place but coming off of a two game losing streak. The Bombers? Well, 3 losses in […]

Introduction A month ago the Bombers were penciled in as the only legitimate contender to Calgary in the West. With both the Riders and Eskimos mired in losing streaks and the Bombers rolling over their opponents with sensational offensive performances, it seemed that the Bombers were just one Calgary lose and a Bomber win in […]

Away predictions, October 20, 2017

October 20, 2017

Bombers are on the road and with the two recent injuries (Leggett and Adams) and coming off two mediocre performances (one a win and one a loss) they could be in tough this week against the Ricky Ray lead Argos. I’m picking Toronto in this one. Elsewhere Calgary over Sask Edmonton over BC Hamilton over […]

Introduction Greetings! So after that solid, workmanlike effort against Edmonton two weeks ago the Bombers laid an egg last week in a lackluster, out of character performance against Hamilton. The result undoubtedly left many Bomber fans frustrated and pondering who is this team? What’s their true identity? With concerns arising again on the defensive side […]
