So what do people think of Mike Vick now?

I have to say it.

He may be reformed in his attitude toward dog fighting.

But he's still a pinhead.

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

Dunno anything about him now. So I have no opinion on him. Just hoping he turned his life around and keeping it that way.

Thanks to TheViking88 for the sig!!

He is over rated and people will have his number if he is a starter.

Like Randall Cunningham, he will struggle to get "over the hump" until he stops running around like a chick with his head cut off and works on becoming a great QB. Then use his running like Rodgers to escape, make plays and give them one more thing to worry about. It took Cunningham blowing out his knee to do that. If Vick figures it out without that, I would be surprised, but he would be very dangerous.

I want to go out like my Grandpa did. Peacefully in his sleep.
Not screaming in terror like his passengers.

Comment non related to your point, Randall Cunningham's 2 year drowned in their backyard hot tub just recently. 😞

Vick held a party for his birthday, didn't restrict access and someone was shot.

I can't say I'm a Vick fan, however, I don't see how this is bad on Vick. it's unfortunate someone was shot, doesn't mean it was Vick's fault because he didn't do a background check on those there. He wanted everyone to celebrate his birthday with him. Big deal.

All I have to say is I hope I can have a second chance at a lucrative career if I'm ever convicted of a felony.

With the timeline in question and his story quickly being debunked by video.. one can still say he may not have been directly responsible. Now.. if the video clock is correct his vehicle left 3 minutes before the shooting in the direction of the shooting.. that may develop more..

That notwithstanding.. here is the point.. you are on federal probation and likewise on a short lease with the league.. one would think a rationale human being may not take a chance with a open access party.

Especially if there might be some unfinished issues with past associates..

He might not be at direct fault.. but that still doesn't speak well for his new matured outlook on life.

I more believe this old adage.. once a turd always a turd.

In defense of Randall Cunningham, Cunningham actually could throw the ball. Michael Vick couldn't hit the side of a barn.

Cunningham's '98 campaign was brilliant. Granted, he had 2 Hall of Fame WRs in Moss and Carter, but still. He threw 34 TDs vs 10 INTs and ran very little that year.

Personality aside, I still wouldn't want Vick as QB. He's too one dimensional. His accuracy is poor and relies entirely on his athleticism. He completes passes by surprising everyone that he's actually throwing the ball.

I watched a few games of the eagles last year ... wasnt that impressed with vick. Seemed slow (moved like an old man) and IMO wasnt that great at the QB position.

Sure he had nice play action and some interesting wild cat plays but thats about it.

I wouldnt mind him as a backup on our team thou ... again as a backup.
Im not that comfortable with flynn as our backup.

heck MV probably not much better but at least he would be entertaining to watch with wildcat stuff lol ...

dfosterf (55m) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (55m) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (58m) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (1h) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (1h) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (1h) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (1h) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (1h) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (1h) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (1h) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (1h) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (1h) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (1h) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (3h) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (3h) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (3h) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?

Zero2Cool (19h) : 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.

dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move

dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately

Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.

dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.

Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : Did they know that at the time or was that something the realized afterwards?

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Van Ness played most of season with broken thumb

wpr (9-Apr) : yay

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Mark Murphy says Steelers likely to protect Packers game. Meaning, no Ireland

Zero2Cool (8-Apr) : Struggling to figure out what text editor options are needed and which are 'nice to have'

Mucky Tundra (8-Apr) : *CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP*

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : WR who said he'd break Xavier Worthy 40 time...and ran slower than you

Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Who?

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Texas’ WR Isaiah Bond is scheduled to visit the Bills, Browns, Chiefs, Falcons, Packers and Titans starting next week.

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Spotting ball isn't changing, only measuring distance is, Which wasn't the issue.

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : The spotting of the ball IS the issue. Not the chain gang.

Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Will there be a tracker on the ball or something?

Zero2Cool (1-Apr) : uh oh

Martha Careful (1-Apr) : Too bad camera's can't spot the ball as well.

Mucky Tundra (1-Apr) : So will the chain gang be gone completely or will they still be around as a backup or whatever?
