February 21, 20241 yr comment_689661 total dollar wise team friendly sure...but an early to mid season season ender injury...not so much

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, 20241 yr by Fatty Liver

If he catches on in the NFL as a second stringer, you're assumption is probably right. They didn't give VAJ an extension with all that guaranteed money if they thought he would come back.

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.

February 21, 20241 yr comment_689700 Watch him post a sad face tweet when he is cut and Rourke is brought in to replace him.

February 22, 20241 yr comment_689757 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".
February 22, 20241 yr comment_689758 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, 20241 yr by MOBomberFan

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? Wow.
February 22, 20241 yr Author comment_689763 I can't imagine Pinball had even a sniff of this... he'd never stand for it. Everyone else involved? 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.
