Ultimately, Ambrosie got his wish here and Kelly is literally on his last chance.
Depends what you consider a last chance. If someone decides to come out with an accusation, is that a last chance? Or are they going to wait for actual proof this time?

I still believe MLSE flexed their muscles, and this statement was just a save face statement. The entire statement is vague

So far, I've counted 16 righteously indignant fans that will boycott the next game. And many live in other CFL cities.

Much ado about nothing?

They can knock themselves out and stay home which is their choice, I’m looking forward to the game on Thursday.

Great to see Kelly back despite Ambrosie getting his way with the "Last Chance" condition that he has hanging over Chad's head. I hope "Opie" Rourke is pleased with how the Commissioner handled this debacle. Looking forward to the 2nd half of the season.

Are they even shocked? For anyone disappointed at the team/league/whatever did they actually think after the 9 games that Kelly would have just disappeared. I know they wanted a lifetime ban or a release at the end of this but did anyone really think that would be the case after the 9 games were served?

The tinfoil hat-wearing part of me wonders if the whole debacle this weekend was a ruse to generate interest.

Why did Kelly post a vague tweet acting like he won the lottery before the review even started?

Why did CP24 cover this so closely?

Why did 3DN not cover this until it was over?

Why was Dave Naylor the only journalist who knew what was going on over the last few days?

Why all the secrecy?

Why were there supposedly negotiations, only to have the Kelly's camp accept Randy's offer at the last minute?

I'm not part of any other Argo-related group, but traffic here spiked this weekend.

I know there is a perfectly logical explanation to all of these questions, but part of me feels like I've been tricked.

I like that Naylor said let’s stick to the facts. The names and slander coming Chad’s way is ridiculous.

Based on what the public has been allowed to know, he's served his time. Now move on and hopefully he plays well and keeps a low profile.

I agree. But who's facts? The problem is the lack of facts.

I guess the Argos will employ Ali's rope-a-dope approach going forward.

The facts that Naylor relayed in his article in May on the subject:
