Is that even allowed? What's the point of a waiver wire if you don't have to make your waivers public?

I would be extremely surprised at the level of incompetence if that article is true. Could it be an unwritten agreement amongst GMs not to pinch a player in a situation such as this?

No way is that "allowed". Not only would the other teams flip out, so would the player's union.


The only question is that due to it being the last week, and a differing time-table, etc. --- Is it possible that no one "checked" the (forgotten methodology of how they get the "word") because the person(s) that do the "checking" didn't think to do so...

I don't believe this speculation, but if it were to come true (my further speculation) along with (further speculation) the reports from "inside NFL sources" that McKenzie went with the Saints a month ago because of a waived injury clause, etc. ----

...and we still wanted him....

something to at least contemplate for a (probably the appropriate amount)

moment.

I wonder if a collusion charge could emerge from this scenario.

I would love to bring him in for the playoffs. He still has a little left in the tank.

He probably has bad feelings about the Packers, but remember, that all went down during the Sherman era. I don't think any of the same coaches or front office people are here anymore. So maybe he would feel differently now, if the Packers wanted him. I would feel better having him back there than Jarett Bush.

something like that happened with someone i work with. 8 years ago he left companyA because they kept shipping him all over the place... so we went to companyB. CompanyC has bought out CompanyA ... and just recently bought out CompanyB ... guess what ... he had to move back to Colorado.

Well Dave your safe, i can't believe you people still think Ted Thompson would bring in a vet to help the team and when he does he cuts them.

Let's not forget that the Packers contacted McKenzie, but were rebuffed by him because his first choice was the Saints.

Honestly dh, you want to hate Ted Thompson then by all means do so. But it seems like you're not even putting any effort into justifying your hate anymore.

Zero2Cool (27-Mar) : It's like listen, you made 4,201 mocks, no shit.
Zero2Cool (27-Mar) : Cuz during the draft "I had them mocked there!" as if it's amazing.

dfosterf (25-Mar) : Probably speed of game issues with your proposal
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Hopefully the refs don't get in the habit of throwing flags on this
beast (25-Mar) : I think when it comes to Challenges should get two strikes, so unlimited challenges as long as they keep winning them, but 2 wrong then done
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still subject to the fines etc
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Yes, I should have been more specific. Also, they are now saying it would be a 15 yard penalty. That makes more sense .
