Mark Cohon and MLSE


Yesterday, CFL Commissioner Mark Cohon announced that he would be stepping away from the league he helped stabilize when his contract expires in April of 2015.

Today, amid recent speculation, Tim Leiweke announced that he would only remain as the President & CEO of MLSE until June 30th, 2015, or until a replacement is found.

I imagine the timing of the two announcements is nothing more than sheer coincidence, but there is a fit between the two that is undeniable.
