I was responding to Goalie's suggestion that Castillo could be at risk of losing his job to Staton, I don't think a decision like that should be made quickly, again experience and past performance under pressure counts.

And I missed the quote. Fair enough! No need to make a quick decision.

Let’s also keep in mind that punting in warm May weather is a lot different than in freezing temperatures in October and beyond.

Bob Cameron agrees with this post. 🙂

You have nothing but a made up story that has a bunch of holes in it. You're assuming your ideas are facts & confusing 'What Ifs' with proof. 

Have the Bombers sent players home and put them on the suspended list? Yes. Did they do it in this in Grants case? Maybe? Is that proof? Nope.

Have the Bombers offered to give players the first week off and let them go home? Maybe? Did they do it in this case? Maybe? Is that proof? Nope.  

Is your story possible? Yes. Doesn't that make it true? Possibly. Does it put the Bombers in the best light possible? Yes. 

It's your MO. Take a possibility that puts the Bombers in the best light possible, say that's what happened, then argue with anyone (No it's not JUST me) who asks for proof.

Sorry but if it walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, I am going to use a little bit of reasonable deduction and assume it's a duck. I am not like you and will not ask it to prove it's not a moose because there is a 1% chance it's a moose in disguise. I can't prove i am right, but I would wager big money on it and I think most people on this forum will think the conclusion i have come to, based on everything we know on this, is more than reasonable. So...a big whatever to you...I guess.

I’ll vote that you have a theory, inconclusive.

Well, I would expect you to take that tack after floating out the disciplinary theory.

Of course. But it doesn’t really matter, does it?

It doesn't matter to you I guess. I am happy with the conclusions I have drawn as being the most overwhelmingly likely scenario with any other interpretation being a fractional % chance of accuracy. I will reserve my todaso for when we probably get the whole story from the horse's mouth in the near future, and it ends up being exactly as I described.

Feels like the coaching staff are getting a little cocky thinking all our mid-30s veterans can beat every other team without ever practicing

So, now Lawler's been suspended (definitely for disciplinary reasons) due to his incident last time he played for us. F****** heck, man.

And it’s ok for you to be happy with the heart felt conclusion you have drawn. Your conviction or belief may provide you with motivation to discuss, but not everyone will and won’t buy it - which I can say with conviction. I wouldn’t speculate whether we get the whole story at all, because we’ve been told it’s private, maybe it’s a goofy story anyways, and many folks appear fine with the silence. What would a told you so prove anyway and what would you do if your wrong? 
Keep speculating! There’s fun in that.

He's facing disciplinary issues again for something that happened 2 years ago?? WTF??

Seems very strange. I would think he saw it coming when he signed here. 

I can't remember if he was arrested/charged for the DUI thing?   Maybe he violated terms?

So, the issue was dealt with back in 2021, WTF is going on?

He was definitely arrested and formally charged but haven't seen any info out there on what kind of punishment he got.  The court system doesn't usually move very fast so maybe it hasn't all played out yet?

I wish I'd taken the wager before the news came out today from the club proving you to be completely wrong & proving that the my 'most likely case' was wrong too. 

If, like you suggest, 'most people on the forum' have drawn the same wrong conclusion, then you are proving that having the most people on your side doesn't mean you are right.

I will always remember where I was when I heard the news that Kenny Lawler has been suspended again.

Man, who cares??? Kenny Lawler's been suspended. That's what people care about right now. Not your conspiracy theories. Or feeding your ego arguing about stuff that isn't important. 

3 or 4 weeks when the 'situation' resolves.......what the hell is going on here....Legal entaglements can get nasty.....Does this mean Kenny is unavailable to the team for 2 or 3 weeks and also saying we 'expect' to occur ....so indefinite....What the hell is going on here
