The QBC franchise was fined a total of $18 by the QFL Commissioner on Monday for a series of gaffes committed over the weekend. The team was caught committing five distinct offenses against the Constitution of the QFL after an annual roster compliance review conducted by QSN. Two other teams were also caught up in the review, but their infractions paled in comparison to QBC’s. QUnet and QU were fined minimally for their first infractions of the season. QBC’s stood out for its brazeness and sheer incompetence. Examples of the team’s utter cluelessness and detailed fine explanation to follow, but it should be pointed out that QBC is getting kid glove treatment here. Five offenses woud usually cost $62 ($2+$4+$8+$16+$32=$62). Only a great attorney could negotiate such a favorable discount AND double-chin picture crop on bio page.
 Example incompetent email from QBC during fine resolution period.
I put mcnight and doucet on our ps already. Hardesty is on the ir which (from understanding) makes him eligible for europe. I am asking you to make the transaction bc I didn’t think I had access to move him elsewhere. If I am confused then let me know.
You have to be kidding me. Really? After 12 years? To somewhat defend QBC… this may be their first time using QFLE.
The fine described by Pope Paul.
1. Jim is going to fix QBC’s roster so that Hardesty is placed on IR
(all transaction costs will be counted);
2. QBC will pay a $4 fine to protect McKnight and Doucet in QFLE;
3. QBC also will pay the following fines: $2 for the initial
infraction; $4 for attempting to fix the infraction by sending 3
players to the PS; and $8 for not fixing this mess until Monday
afternoon; and
4. QBC’s next finable offense will be a $16 fine.
