I just saw that reported comment from the neighbor on CBS, RP. That jumped off the screen. There was an interview with one of the women who found him in the street who claimed that the fiancee was there when the police arrived and that she told police he jumped out of the truck himself, but I have yet to see that confirmed anywhere in a police statement.

"Charlotte bartender and sports fanatic Al Harris recalled other tragedies that have befallen on athletes in Charlotte, N.C."

Wait, what? First RP's link, now this coincidence...

Yikes. The end of the article was downright scary.

Also notice the picture on the right. What a good looking family. Not that that matters. I'm just noticing it.

Sad turn of events. I feel bad for the whole lot of them, including the neighbor.

Every man's a saint the day he dies. I don't put much stock into the words people are saying, one way or the other.

Zero, where in any of that do they say how he changed? Was he doing charitable work in the community? All I see are the same few comments saying he was changed but giving no evidence of it. Showing up for practice on time because you're about to lose your job is not quite the same as getting your life straight because you realize you can't continue on a self-destructive path.

Do you need to do charitable work in the community to be a good person? By that definition, most players on our team are not "good persons". Every one around him said he focused more on football and started making the necessary adjustments to rebuild his career. But of course you won't acknolwedge that because you need to see some charity work.

It probably wasn't even his fault. A guy with his kind of behavior. Threatening to kill himself who exhibits that type of self destructive behavior(when he was younger) when he has the world at his fingertips. All the potential in the world, all the money anyone could ever ask for with more to come. It's obvious he had serious mental illness.

It really surprises me how some can lack tact so much on an issue like this. Degrade this and that when they don't even know. This whole 'hey look at me, i can say something unpleasant about a dead fella' bit is childish.

I'm not saying anything good or bad about the man. I didn't know him. I have just been to enough funerals to know even scumbags are eulogized in death, so the words spoken by his grieving teammates and relatives are meaningless. We can't make a true judgment of his character one way or the other.

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : Lions shopping Jameson Williams?
packerfanoutwest (22-Apr) : Packers General Manager Brian Gutekunst says Green Bay’s roster can win, even without adding anyone in the draft.
Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : It's a poor design. New site has SignalR like our gameday chat
wpr (22-Apr) : Ah today's Shout was very quick to post.
wpr (22-Apr) : now 3
Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : Who? What?
beast (22-Apr) : What is he supposed to say? He doesn't want players currently on the team?
Martha Careful (21-Apr) : meh

wpr (19-Apr) : 5 days
beast (18-Apr) : 6 days
wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep
dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire
dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.
dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission
dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"
dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that
dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.
