Welcome to Semi Final Sunday In Hamilton, it’ll be the cross over Lions coming to town.  The Ti-Cats are limping into this game literally with the loss of Brandon Banks being the most significant injury but certainly not the only one.  The Lions ended the season with a loss but overall in the last 1/2 […]

In the 4 games being played this weekend there is only 1 team who has anything to play for.  That would be Calgary playing in BC on Saturday.  A win by Calgary and they maintain first in the West.  A loss and Saskatchewan gets first.  So pick the highly motivated Stamps to beat BC. In […]

Introduction  Don’t get me wrong.  I believe that Winnipeg can win this game.  The opening song might suggest a hint a lack of confidence that the Blue can pull off a win, but that’s just realism creeping in. Consider this: The Bombers haven’t beaten Calgary at home since July 2009 Calgary is 6-0 at IGF since […]

The Western division is so tight.  There is actually one scenario though that the Bombers can get in without winning another game but it’s hardly worth mentioning.  Realistically the Bombers are going to have to win one of their last two games (Calgary or Edmonton) to get into the post season.  They’re on a bye […]

Introduction It’s the 13thgame of the season and it’s come down to this. After just 12 games in a season that started with so much promise the Bombers find themselves in a pivotal game that may have implications, not just for this year’s playoff hopes but for the franchise for years to come. After 12 weeks […]
