Good total number but if VA goes down during the season the cap relief isn't great. Dr Zaius and wbbfan 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never say never, he might be gone for 3 or 4 more years like Strev. but he's still young enough to come back and have a CFL career if he has the desire to. If he ever catches on in the NFL as a #2 QB your assumption is probably right. Edited February 21 by Fatty Liver wbbfan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, he's not contractually obligated to return to the Lions, maybe he lands in Wpg. after Zach retires. wbbfan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be they are not ultra confident that they would land him if he does come back. They threw gaudy (650k per) at him to stay last offseason and he walked away without giving it much thought. If he really loved the Lions org he might have mulled that over for a bit. 6 minutes ago, Fatty Liver said: True, he's not contractually obligated to return to the Lions, maybe he lands in Wpg. after Zach retires.

Super Duper Negatron Posted February 22 Report Share Posted February 22 There are two sides to every story, and we obviously need to hear Chad Kelly's side. But I can't help but read her accounting of events and think "yeah, I could see that". rebusrankin and Noeller 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOBomberFan Posted February 22 Report Share Posted February 22 (edited) The coach wrote in her lawsuit that she then informed Mujtaba and Argos assistant general manager John Murphy about what had happened. “Murphy responded by stating that [she] should not have spoken to [Kelly] and that she has now ‘opened a can of worms that didn’t need to be opened,’” the lawsuit says. Wait, you mean cool guy John Murphy wanted to sweep Kelly's behaviour under the rug? Say it ain't so... what a **** stain yes, sorry, "alleged" behaviour Edited February 22 by MOBomberFan Bigblue204, Noeller, wbbfan and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Needs to go through the process with all facts presented to make an informed decision. But one thing I do know as true and can’t be debated, Argo’s continue and always will suck. ps Chad Kelly is currently the highest paid CFL player?

Story checks out, IMO. Pinball is old boys club through and through. The Argos had a load of scumbags in his time as a coach. When we hired O'Shea one of my main concerns is he'd bring that stink in here but he seems to have some human-level accountability. johnzo, Piggy 1, JCon and 3 others 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
