That aside.
BLM has a contract, lets say an XFL team offers him 500k American to play close to home. He chooses to not report to the Stamps. Stamps suspend him and don't pay him. They what then? File suit in Canada? The optics are terrible. Never would happen.

What?
For who?
I mean...I'm not sure what the issue is here. Businesses file lawsuits, literally, all the time when they feel a contract has been violated/broken.
The Stampeders business is football players. Why would it be any different because of "optics"?
And no, they don't "own" him, they own his rights to play football under the agreement of the contract that both parties signed onto.
