Bomber for life
The Corbett Report, Banjo Bowl 2019
Introduction When the Corbett Report last filed a full home game report all seemed right in the world. Enroute to a 7-2 record, a healthy Matt Nichols at QB, Andrew Harris having another strong season, the Bombers seemed right on track to break that pesky Grey Cup drought. What could possibly go wrong? Well, two […]

Away predictions, Labour Day 2019
September 1, 2019
Given that the Bombers are 1-13 over the last 14 Labour Day games and 18-36 over the past 54 years, it would have been a safe bet to suggest that they would be underdogs again this year in spite of their first place record. So now add to that, no Matt Nichols and no Andrew […]

The Corbett Report, August 8, 2019
August 7, 2019
Introduction When we last chatted, three weeks ago, the Bombers were well established in first place in the CFL West with a comfortable 4-point cushion over third-place Calgary. I thought at the time, that first place in the West would come down to who won the three-game series between Calgary and Winnipeg (sorry Edmonton, until […]

Week Seven, Away predictions
July 25, 2019
The Bombers are up against a formidable opponent this week. Hamilton is in first in the East and play especially well at home. No free play on the bingo card this week. This game and the Calgary game in two weeks will go a long way in proving whether the Bombers are indeed the class […]
