Happy Canada Day to all!
First regular season game in the new stadium but, once again, I believe the line is moving in the wrong direction. The Bombers should be the better squad but now find themselves betting underdogs against almost certainly the worst team in the West division. It's always been tough for the Bombers to win in Regina but they were finally able to do that last year and should be able to get the job done again today. The Riders are counting on much travelled qb Kevin Glenn to move the offense effectively but, although he's had a few good seasons, he's very average and has yet to lead his team to a championship despite playing in the league forever. They do have the advantage of having played last week to work out the kinks but don't think it will be enough to beat a solid Bomber team. Will take Winnipeg (+3) AND (+140 on the money line).
Season - 2-0
