Bombers/Argos Preview
Posted on 17 Sep 2010 by Jim Penner.
Early Sunday afternoon, the Winnipeg Blue Bombers take on the Toronto Argonauts at the Roger Centre Skydome.

Als Beat Bombers But Lose Calvillo
Posted on 19 Aug 2010 by Jim Penner.
It seems that the Winnipeg Blue Bombers don’t want to show up to a CFL game until midway through the 2nd quarter. Of the first 8 games this year the Bombers have trailed early in all but one game. The trend continued against the Montreal Alouettes as Winnipeg found itself down 24-0. And the Bombers never recovered losing the game 39-17. Anthony Calvillo played well through 25 minutes. ...

Bombers Defense …. Is it too Inexperienced?
Posted on 17 Aug 2010 by Jim Penner.

Kevin Glenn continued his one man revenge tour of killing the Bomber...

Winnipeg Firing in All Aspects of the Game Defeats Eskimos
Posted on 26 Jul 2010 by Jim Penner.
A couple of weeks ago I wrote about how the Toronto Argonauts wanted the game more than the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. On Saturday, with the Edmonton Eskimos in town to take on the Bombers, the team that wanted the game more proved to be the victor again. The Blue Bombers were that hungrier of a team to the tune of a 47 to 21 victory over the Eskimos. Winnipeg came out of the gate ready to play...

Posted on 20 Jun 2010 by Jim Penner.
Hi, my name is Jim, a.k.a. Hobbes and I’m going to be your Winnipeg Blue Bombers blogger for http://www.prosportsblogging.com. Halfway through training camp and it’s very different from a year ago. In 2009 Mike Kelly was enthusiastically leading the charges with his bombastic approach to every confrontation both minor and major. This time around Paul Lapolice who took over as coach in l...
