Sad news to hear about Demerio Houston being charged with domestic abuse, Given the hard stance taken with Chad Kelly I expect Houston will not be allowed to return and play.
No doubt it stresses the importance of the issue but it may have been a can of worms the CFL will regret taking a leading role in. Good lesson for aspiring athletes though.

Re: Gender Based Violence
Thought I'd slip in this link to the Steven Chang article from the Lions website. It's rather a short piece and only alludes to the More Than A Bystander initiative in the final paragraphs, but is a nice little peak through the window into some off-season action regards a handful of fellows--focusing on McInnis, i.e. shoveling snow at the facility with Buck, catching the ball with Nathan, and holidaying with Alex (Hollins).

A bit sad that Alex Hollins is not being brought back as of now.Off the field. McInnis loves to sit back and play NHL 25. But he only gets so many days in the offseason to experience life. Like being a girl dad and travelling outside of North America for the first time in his life.
McInnis, his brother and fellow receiver Alex Hollins will be taking a trip to Panama this month.
I guess it can all change.
