Jake Lapierre - Conditioning Coach - In reading Ken Belson and Katie Rosman’s article in the New York Times regarding
Jon Gruden, it is disheartening to see the types of unchecked, unprofessional behaviors by Gruden that have occurred over
Stories And More About The People In Stormont, Dundas & Glengarry
decades that have become public. Gruden’s behavior is nothing short of incomprehensible and it certainly doesn’t merit the

Gruden however shouldn’t be the only person singled out, as there have been multiple incidents committed by so-called
professionals in the sports world. So, what have professional leagues done to change these types of behaviors?
Hockey Professionalism involves being reliable, setting high standards, showing care about every aspect of your job and the people around you, and

to address what it means to demonstrate true professionalism. Sure, they can be reactive and conduct workplace misconduct investigations,
like the one that flushed Gruden out of the unchecked rabbit hole; however pro leagues haven’t scratched the tip of the iceberg. The true work
Signed with Soo Grey Hounds OHL is in creating a pro-active culture that is all-inclusive and ensures these types of behaviors are not tolerated within the organization.

Jim Riddell - Seaway Karate Club - When an athlete signs a contract with a professional team, they are also agreeing to
follow the rules and regulations put in place by the league. The four major pro leagues, the NHL, NFL, NBA, and MLB have
Stories And More About The People In Stormont, Dundas & Glengarry
a combined total of about 4000 players plus coaches and other team personnel. The majority have a presence on social media
and with the various personalities involved, there is plenty of potential for things to go wrong.
In the past few seasons each of these four leagues has somehow been affected by inappropriate comments made by someone.
When a player is involved, they are usually fined by the league. Fines are agreed to and set under the Collective Bargaining
Agreement and may seem significant to the average fan, but to the player it is just a light slap on the wrist. As an example, earlier this year
NBA player Kevin Durant was fined $50,000 for making homophobic remarks. With Durant’s 40.9-million-dollar salary, this fine was paid
off just a few minutes into the first quarter of his next game. One suggestion that has been made numerous times is for player suspensions be
doled out rather than fines as the financial impact is far greater. St. Louis Blues player Pavel Buchnevich was recently suspended two games
for head-butting Lawson Crouse of the Arizona Coyotes. This suspension meant that Buchnevich forfeited $141,463 of his 5.8 million-dollar
salary. If the pro leagues are serious about the issue of inappropriate comments being voiced, it may be worthwhile to consider suspensions
as a deterrent.
