Jacquie, if I was PM, I'd have litigated until the cows came home to prevent Khadr from collecting one cent. If it took years & cost many more millions then so be it just so Khadr & his family couldn't get their grubby hands on any of it until all legal avenues were exhausted. That's how I feel.
Family time yet returned to the CFL a year later with another team. Like I said, always has been speculation as to why Condell actually left. I don't think everyone buys the family time thing. I've never seen a game where Kent Austin is ever looking like he's enjoying himself. He's constantly looks stressed & is this close to losing it. Noeller mentioned Doug Berry. That is exactly what he's like. Only Kent's the GM as well as HC. Might take longer for the GM to fire the Head Coach. Scott Mitchell may have to do the dirty deed if the losing continues. Pulling for you guys tonight for sure.
Kent Austin frequently flies off the handle on the sidelines during games when things aren't going well & when dealing with media after a loss. After awhile having a raving lunatic as a head coach really means nothing as the players know they'll still be there as it's easier to replace one person than 46. He's losing it in many ways. His team & as a coach. As a former player he should know better. It's never been revealed why Tommy Condell left. I wouldn't be surprised if he just got tired of having to deal with Austin everyday.
Austin is losing his entire team with his tirades. He'll lose his job if he's already lost Collaros. You'd think as a former qb that he'd understand that. Austin has a huge ego. He's a typical professional coach who is "My way or the highway". It's all black & white to him with no grey areas. I think he'll be hitting the highway soon enough. We've all seen guys like that come & go. The last coach here like that was Mike Kelly.
Dangerous precedent? How about incompetent people officiating games that blow calls all the time affecting outcomes even with replay to get right. The CFL deserves all the blow back they get. Football fans are calling the CFL a joke as this happens all the time. That's a dangerous precedent. I'm all for getting rid of replays & challenges as well as firing Glenn Johnson. Go back to the way it was before.
