I think it's likely a little of both.

Of course, didn't you see. The team didn't bring back the victim because they wanted her to know that they take harassment seriously!

at the end of the day there's no possible way anyone can say one way or the other. Pretending like it's a certainty is just stroking egos. For what it's worth, I think Cole should be SAM. But i'm not going to say he's the difference maker in those games. The team still had the best record and went to it's 4th GC in a row while starting more Canadians than anyone else. We all know anything can happen in a winner takes all Championship.

And we can say for certain that having less Canadians would accomplish that?

Say what you want about the starting CNDs last year. But that strategy got us an extra draft pick. Maybe there's more to the story in terms of needing to fill the cabinets again.

I'm not sure that's true.

(First bolded part)25k isn't a lot....which should speak to how badly she wants to work in that industry. Why would she want to stay though? The questions you should be asking are, what opportunities can come to her if she stays in the industry? What opportunities can come to her if she stays with that organization? How many opportunities does she have to do that job in a profession where there are less than 50 (I'm not sure what the UFL is like for that specific job so I gave them the benefit of doubt) pro football teams in NA? How might another year of experience help her career? I would suggest that her wanting to stay despite the low pay and harassment shows this may very well be a dream job for her. For the record, one of my dream jobs pays less than 35k a year. I'm no longer working in it for various reasons, but if I could i absolutely would. Suggesting $$ is one of the only factors is short sighted. (Second bolded part) yes, so they did the right thing and got rid of the victim. That will really show the victim that they take harassment seriously! And I bet the accused would really learn a hard lesson. That's just an absolutely ridiculous claim to make. Lol.

That's fair.

I think a lot of it has to do with 2 things. 1- sign of the times. SA/SH is being taken Uber seriously which is appropriate IMO by today's business world(well the good ones anyway) and 2-violence, while being limited, is still very much a part of today's game. Harrassment is not at all part of the sport especially with staff that doesn't play. It's embarrassing at this point.

Again, with the league handing down this large of suspension there 100% needs to be lots of evidence against Kelly. Just because you're not privy to it doesn't mean there's nothing there. It's a ridiculous claim to suggest the league is just handing suspensions out on rumours especially after an independent investigation.

That's not in any way a fact. That's just part of the he said she said. Which oddly enough has now turned in to, TO/Kelly said vs Employee/CFL. It's not at all as cut and dry as you're making it out to be. The league isn't going to hand down the largest suspension ever because of some accusations with no merit. That's a ridiculous claim.

The League said the ops would be dealt with shortly.

Personally, I would be willing to throw my career away for 100k. That's life changing money. Hello retirement!!!!!

Streveler may have something to say about THAT

There's no way the league is going to give a break on any sms punishment to a team they're investigating. That would be an absolutely horrible look.

Not a chance any of this happens.

Wonder what the CFLPA will be saying about this suspension

And with the way Pro sports is in todays world. There's a good chance he will be this for a very very very long time.

I'm guessing this has something to do with a TSN segment. But I'm not sure I like him taking reps from guys...it's not a huge deal sure... but still

Que the 5 3down articles about him coming back

Downgrade in production for your 4th/5th rec isn't the problem your imagining it to be.

From what I heard about JJ. It was Winnipeg or bust outside of a huge offer from another club. Same with Grey. Grant, I understand both sides....the club doesn't want to invest in a guy who hasn't stayed healthy on limited touches for a few years now and Grant isn't getting any younger and likely wants a decent payday.

I will not accept any stove slander around here!! It was 25 games!

Stove moved to the retired list by BC. They also released Menard.

Chandler Worthy cut buy MTL...wouldn't mind having him here for TC
