Our Bombers are now 2 games away from losing the entire second half of a season. Have we ever done this before? Even with 16 game schedule included. There's zero chance we win in Calgary so our only hope to salvage some iota of pride would be vs bc next week.

Improved my ass.

I don't think so. I do remember Don Matthews going 0-9 with the Argos in 2007 when he came in as head coach mid season (I think). Didn't  win  a single  game. Brutal.

If we play as well against BC next week as we did against Calgary, We have a good chance of beating them.

Thanks for the records, pigseye. Answers the question. 

I'm not interested in losing streaks.

Depressing, it is. Screwed, we are.

Could be Calgary makes enough mistates for us to be in that game.

In terms of specifically losing every game for an entire half of a season, it's happened twice in the club's 84 year history. In 1964 the team started 1-1-1 before losing 13 straight to finish off the season, so obviously went 0-8 in the second half of the year. In 1998 the club started the season 0-10 and finished at 3-15 overall. Last year we were close on both halves of the season, going 1-8 in the first half and 2-7 in the back half, but the other "almost" year was 1989, when we were 7-4 before losing 7 straight to finish off the regular season (we then won a playoff game before losing to the Tiger Cats in the eastern Final).
