Doubt the Packers will outright cut him over this, but it wouldn't shock me to see the NFL fine or suspend him for a game after being found guilty.

No contest isn't exactly the same as guilty. Dude just got a fine. Did Eugene Robinson get suspended? Don't recall.

I find it amusing that "non-marital sexual intercourse" is still a crime in the supposedly progressive state of Wisconsin.

According to the article, it's "Prostitution - non-marital sexual intercourse", with a definition of: "a person intentionally has non-marital sex for anything of value. It has a maximum penalty of $10,000 in fines and 9 months imprisonment."

In this case, I'm not sure what Underwood was getting of value in return for the non-marital sex...

So, by pleading no-contest to the prostitution charge--does that officially make him a male prostitute???

I don't believe Roger Goodell was the Commissioner during that time, nor was there a Personal Conduct Policy enforced either.

Effectively, no contest is exactly the same as guilty. The only practical difference is you don't have to "publish" -- publically announce, if you will -- your guilt. In most cases, the penalty is the same.

Isn't pleading no contest basically saying you're guilty, but without admitting guilt? That's what a judge told me when I said I didn't know the difference, lol. The best part was, I asked "I don't think I'm guilty, but I don't want to drag this out, what would you plead?" he kind of smiled and said, no contest. I said okay "No Contest your honor". He dropped my fine down to the court costs, plus 20 bucks.

Pretty much. You're basically saying there's alot of evidence against you, but you're not conceding that you actually did it, per se.

I believe the non-marital disclaimer means that, say, having sex with your wife in exchange for buying her a necklace, isn't a crime. Which would technically be marital prostitution. =)

Not that non-marital sex is a crime.

No, that is an Alford plea, which is were you admit that the prosecutor has enough evidence to convict you, while still maintaining your innocence. A nolo contendere (no contest) plea, as far as the court is concerned, is an admission of guilt; you just don't have to publish your guilt later. It is a weird technicality. You don't have to verbally admit it for the record in court, and I suppose you wouldn't, say, have to admit it to a future employer. But it is certainly a concession of guilt.

beast (20-Nov) : We brought in a former Packers OL coach to help evaluate OL as a scout

beast (20-Nov) : Jets have been pretty good at picking DL

Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : He landed good players thanks to high draft slot. He isn't good.

Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : He can shove his knowledge up his ass. He knows nothing.

beast (20-Nov) : More knowledge, just like bring in the Jets head coach

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : What? Why? Huh?

beast (19-Nov) : I wonder if the Packers might to try to bring Douglas in through Milt Hendrickson/Ravens connections

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : The Jets fired Joe Douglas, per sources

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : Jets are a mess......

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Pretty sure Jets fired their scouting staff and just pluck former Packers.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Jets sign Anders Carlson to their 53.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : When you cycle the weeks, the total over remains for season. But you get your W/L for that selected week. Confusing.

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the total and percentage are the same as the previous weeks

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the totals are accurate..nrvrtmind

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : I don't follow what you are saying. The totals are not the same as last week.

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : ok so then wht are the totals the same as last week?

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : NFL Pick'em is auto updated when NFL Scores tab is clicked

Martha Careful (19-Nov) : The offense was OK. Let's not forget the Bear defense is very very good.

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : Who updates the leaderboard on NFLPickem?

beast (19-Nov) : Has the Packers offense been worse since the former Jets coach joined the Packers?

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Offense gets his ass in gear, this could be good.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Backup QB helped with three wins. Special Teams contributed to three wins.

bboystyle (18-Nov) : Lions played outside thats why. They scored 16 and 17 in the only 2 outside games this year

Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : The rest of the NFL is catching up to Packers ... kicking is an issue throughout league

packerfanoutwest (18-Nov) : Packers DL Kenny Clark: We knew 'we were going to block' Bears' game-winning field goal attempt

Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : Lions seem to be throttling everyone, but only (only) got 24 lol maybe the rain is why

Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : Packers vs Lions game doesn't seem so bad.

beast (18-Nov) : Dennis Green "They are what we thought they were, and we let them off the hook!"

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : comment of the day Z2Cool "Bears better than we want to admit. Packers worse than we think. It's facts."

Mucky Tundra (17-Nov) : my worst case scenario: Bears fix their oline and get a coach like Johnson from the Lions and his scheme

Zero2Cool (17-Nov) : Bears get OL fixed amd we might have a problem

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Pretty sure they already have scouting reports on guys who aren't even starting for their college team. The future is now for me.

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : I tend to let Gute and Co. Worry about the future.

beast (17-Nov) : That's great news and Packers need to keep upgrading their OL, DL and DBs this off-season, so missing one guy doesn't kill them

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Jaire and Evans Williams are both ACTIVE! Good news.

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : The badgers really need to change the whole offensive scheme. No draws no screens plus the quarterback is marginal

Cheesey (17-Nov) : If the Badgers had a decent QB, they would have won. The guy can't hit a wide open receiver

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : chop block

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : there was a very questionable job Block call that upon viewing replay was very borderline

beast (17-Nov) : How so? (I didn't watch)

packerfanoutwest (16-Nov) : damn,he hasn't played since week 2
