Long returns help Argonauts down Blue Bombers

Jan 9, 2008 - 5:50 PM TORONTO (Ticker) -- Dominique Dorsey returned a kickoff 97 yards for a touchdown and Kenny Wheaton took an interception 84 yards for another score as the Toronto Argonauts posted a 31-23 win over the Winnipeg Blue Bombers on Sunday.

Dorsey's first-quarter return helped the Argonauts establish a 21-1 halftime lead. Wheaton's interception return early in the third increase the bulge to 28-1.
