    A big part of Pinball's success as a GM is his ability to attract talent, and to get otherwise unfocused or hot-headed players to buy into the team philosophy. This has been extremely valuable for the Argos.

    I hope he continues as GM.

    This and I feel that the commissioner's position comes with a significant amount of politics which is something I would prefer Pinball stay away from.

    I’d like to give Mike the choice on that one.

    Of course it's his choice, but the purpose of a discussion board is to allow people to give their own two cents.

    Excellent point about attracting unorthodox players!

    Maybe Mike’s biggest strength is implementing his “vision”, whether it’s at the individual level or organizational level. Something that I think has been missing at the leagues level” for quite a while.
