No different than any of us going to work thirty years ago and the way bosses talked to us back then. Pick yourself, dust yourself off and put your big boy pants on. Bunch of ffffff babies as Big Bird would say.
Everything today has to do with social media and internet. 30 years ago, unless it was in the news, nobody would pay attention. Today, a fart would have 10 million viewers and became a hot topic in the world within 24 hours.

Solely has severe Dyslexia doesn’t he. I think he battled depression and drinking because of it. Basically Crawford was picking on a handicap battling depression and drinking because of it. Not a good legacy Marc

So like for the record, he resigned. Flames organization saves 4 million or so. Move on.

I've been out all day, haven't done any research... do we know for certain the Flames are saving any money here?

Because I'm doubtful...

I'm guessing the delay has involved a exit plan negotiation.

I'll never understand how this stuff comes out from guys like Aliu and Sopel this much later.

Part of me wants to ask them how a mid 20's athlete in prime physical shape could just stand there and let a guy scream at him, choke him, kick him, and basically treat him like a bitch, and not simply feed the dude his lunch. And how can his 20 teammates stand by and not do jack? What happened to the brotherhood? The family? The team?

But now, 15 years later, they grow a pair and can get even thanks Facebook, Twitter, and all the SJW's who regularly patrol the streets of social media looking for a cause to champion and an offender to throw under the wheels of the bandwagon. And even the teammates who stood idly by watching this happen now leap to the defense of their former comrade and join the circus.

I'm not condoning the actions of guys like Peters and Crow, it's pathetic. Just saying that it's pretty sad the way society is moving now. We are one step away from a system where you are guilty until proven innocent, and verdicts are being handed down in the court of public opinion.
