Here is the link to an article by Steve Milton titled "Cohon mystified by Mac's stance" on thespec.com today. CFL Commissioner http://www.thespec.com/sports/ticats/art...

In August, 2010, Cohon sent this letter to then Mayor Eisenberger in support of an east mountain stadium site: http://raisethehammer.org/article/1136/c...

In today's article, Milton quotes Cohon: "The philosophy of the club is to try to keep it close to the fans for 2013."

This was not the case in mid-January, 2011. The Tiger-Cats had two stadium location options: the west harbour or the Ivor Wynne Stadium rebuild jointly announced by Bob Young and Mayor Bratina through a National Post press conference withno prior consultation with city council or the larger commuity. The west harbour option would have allowed the Tiger-Cats to play all of its games at the old Ivor Wynne Stadium until the new west harbour stadium was ready. The Ivor Wynne Stadium rebuild option has put the City of Hamilton, McMaster University and the Ticats themselves into a massive pickle.
