Bombers' Self-Inflicted Wounds: Turnover Epidemic Threatens Second-Half Run
The Winnipeg Blue Bombers' 5-4 record is a statistical paradox. All four losses came at home, three by double digits, yet the underlying data suggests a team far closer to contention than their record indicates. The June 25 loss to Edmonton is the clearest diagnostic: Winnipeg out-gained the Elks in
