The head of this firm seems to have a long-standing relationship with the league.

I disagree. It isn't at all unusual in 2024 for someone to be fired for such behaviour.
How much power did she have compared to Chad Kelly? Ultimately, that's what this is all about - power - and Kelly knew damn well that he had a lot more of it than she did. As 3downnation.com said in...
Honestly, the team and MLSE are doing a good enough job on their own of damaging the team's reputation.
Someone higher than Pinball should have been there today.
As he should be. Keith Pelley should have been there also. Pelley may not have been around when this troubling behaviour occurred but it is incumbent upon him to clean up this mess and ensure it...
I think some of the media - who don't normally cover football - assumed that all of the QBs at rookie camp were rookies. The veteran QBs always report with the rookies also and, from the footage that...
Supposedly, there is a lot more that led up to that one incident though. Kelly allegedly harassed the poor woman for two freaking years and then blew up because his advances weren't being accepted....
Significantly, Pinball said today that the Argos aren't challenging the allegations and, from his comments, it is apparent that he is acknowledging that wrongdoing happened and that they have to do...
This is a PR nightmare that Pelley, Manning, and Pinball are only making worse by the day.
To be fair, I believe that Kelly did much more than just shout threats at the complainant on the team bus. There were numerous incidents over the course of 2022 and 2023, according to the...
I know that 3downnation.com gets a fair bit of criticism but I do think that they did an excellent job in discussing the Kelly situation on their podcast this week:...
Kelly and his counsel have likely already seen this report. Reports, such as this one, are rarely released to the public, regardless of the workplace. This is hardly unusual.
The league did an external workplace investigation into the complainant's allegations. That is a standard thing to - or at least should be - in situations such as this one, in any workplace. The...
I could see bringing in Cornelius but am less enthusiastic about Arbuckle, who has regressed badly over the past few years. It's worth making inquiries into Tre Ford, who is into the final season of...
None of us know what Pinball did or didn't know or when he found out. I assume that the league is looking into all of that right now.
If this were 20 to 30 years ago, then maybe he could come back from this with the Argos and the CFL. In 2024, I just don't think it's possible. Keep in mind that the league is also employing more...
These kinds of investigations are rarely made public but Kelly and his lawyer(s) have access to the findings (an 87 page report). Kelly also has the ability to grieve and appeal through the CFLPA.
Lots of people, unfortunately, have mental health issues but most do not sexually harass others or engage in gender-based violence. Kelly may indeed have some mental health issues but those are...
Am I shocked? No, given Kelly's well-documented immaturity, which I had hoped he had gotten over last year.
Obviously, the investigation found that he did something serious in the workplace,...
Be prepared to go with Dukes and Scott and maybe make inquiries into Nathan Rourke's availability (not that I expect anything much to come of that). I can't see a veteran QB that is available that...
That's my feeling about Glenn also; he was a decent QB but not a Hall of Famer.
Agreed on Glenn. Let's hope that the day never comes when he makes it in the HOF, with all due respect to him and his longevity in the league.
There has always been speculation about that but...
Weirdly enough, a good quarter of that 1990 Bombers championship team has died young, with Bauer being the most recent one.
There's definitely a recency bias with HOF inductions.
