bluto Posted June 5 Report Posted June 5 13 hours ago, wbbfan said: My question is, for the relatively menial amount she sued for why didn’t they pay it right away and avoid much of this? And now that it’s setttled will we see punishment for the front office? I’m happy for her receiving what ever she got. I hope she manages to find more sports work in the future if she chooses. That surely would've been optimal for the player, club and league... but not for the complainant. They would obviously have been best served by using the media and the CFL investigation as a big stick to maximize their settlement. Can't fault them for using the tools available to them. Smart.

At the end of the day, I am happy the complainant gets to move on with her life, Hopefully, the league office is now shifting it's focus on ensuring Kelly gets the mental help he desperately needs to reform his atrocious behavior, and also has it's bullseye painted squarely on another person of suspect character that was already given one chance. Mr. Murphy, you got some questions to answer.

They wouldn't have settled for more than was sued for, and the amount was pretty trivial. So I don't buy that. 1 hour ago, HardCoreBlue said: Great point.

Mr. Murphy, you got some questions to answer. Murphy has not been talked about nearly enough. His actions are every bit as bad as Kelly's. In this day and age you can not sweep this under the rug and fire people bringing this up to you. rebusrankin, BigBlueFanatic, coach17 and 5 others 8

Might be time for him to get an apple and a roadmap too. What a complete lack of character that organization hides behind Pinball's pearly whites. 2 minutes ago, wbbfan said: I feel like the league is going to try and sweep this under the carpet and not punish the front office sadly.

And btw if these same things were happening within our club with people of our own (players, management, staff) some of us would be saying these exact same things we are saying here when the details first became aware to the public. This is not just because its the Argo's although they do royally suck. JCon and BigBlueFanatic 2
Goalie Posted June 5 Report Posted June 5 We already experienced it when Kelly and Murphy were here. Just a different Kelly this time.
SpeedFlex27 Posted June 5 Report Posted June 5 To give you an idea of the priority about the safety of women in the workplace, Pinball Clemons is getting an honourary degree from the University of Guelph later this month. Even after the bungled Chad Kelly affair. I certainly don't hold him in the same high esteem that I used to. https://www.guelphtoday.com/local-news/argos-legend-pinball-clemons-to-receive-honourary-degree-from-u-of-g-8975982 Tracker 1

Probably lots to do with being the first black head coach to win a cup. They appear to be handing out honorary degrees to black people firsts The first Black head coach to win a Grey Cup is also called an inspirational athlete and leader on and off the field. He established the Pinball Clemons Foundation, which helps to “inspire youth through literacy programs, scholarships, bursaries and employment opportunities, aligning with U of G’s commitment to improve life," a news release explains. Zanana L. Akande, the first Black woman to be elected into the Ontario legislature will also get a degree.
