Chalk up another in the long line of ridiculous league office cowering:
It once was Hugh Campbell who had the pull, recently highlights included
a) a trade where they made a trade with Hamilton near the end of the year to get a couple decent players in return for future considerations...which were going to be Jason Maas, but not until the Esks were done with him at the end of the season.
b) Getting a provincial judge, and Eskimo season ticket holder, to overturn the 1 game suspension AJ Gass got for a roid rage incident where he ripped of a Stamps' players helmet and tossed it.
The lack of any discipline for Jason Jimenez when he ended Anthony Gargulio's career with a dirty low hit.
Now a slap on the wrist for the team owned by the new guy with the pull at the league office, the one who has two teams and the league eating out of his hand. Ridiculous precident set by this for pursiut of players and coaches. If I'm Huff, and the league has no teeth to any of their rules, I dust off the Personal Services Contract template from the Ryckman days and start spending away.
Can't wait for the Stamps to run some halfback option passes and onside kicks late in games to run the score up against the Argos next year.
