Eternal optimist

Unfortunately this season is already starting to look like the 2013 season in terms of how we're just getting blown out like this. We might be able to steal a couple of wins here and there when teams underestimate us, but from what we've seen so far this team has a long way to go before being legitimately competitive. The bigger problem this year though is if things continue on the current trend, the Bombers don't have a shiny new stadium to artificially inflate our home attendance numbers.

Whichever week the July 21 home game against Calgary is considered - they have a tendency to do well (or at least better) when I don't go to games and I'm not going to that one. Also despite the game on Friday, I'm optimistic and still think this team could beat them if they actually played with some heart.

It'd be interesting if someone could define the "cut-off" when the other team's defenses really start to let up - then you could just back out any subsequent offensive production after that and see the Bombers offensive numbers for what they really are. Even if you took the 4th quarter production out of both of those games it'd be a better indicator of how the offense is doing when you only include #'s from when the opponent's defensive unit was still competing at its highest level.

As someone possessing a degree in statistics, I must respectfully disagree with the title of this thread. That said, most statistics (especially sport statistics) can be easily manipulated to suit one's needs... such as making the Bombers woeful offense look a lot better in the numbers categories than it has been through two games.

Hi everyone, Long time bomber fan, been a season ticket holder since 2011 season. Gotta say I can't relate to some of the older members on here that remember better days for the blue and gold. Never seen the blue and gold win the GC but I look forward to it someday. Nice to meet everyone.

Not with an 18-game season at least. According to a quick search on Wikipedia, the 1949 Hamilton Wildcats went 0-12-0. The most recent 'worst' season was in 2003 when Hamilton posted a 1 - 17 record.
