"Wide receiver Sidney Rice was at the Steadman Clinic in Vail, Colo., on Monday to have his injured hip examined and it appears likely he will undergo surgery, according to people with knowledge of the situation.

Surgery would be expected to sideline Rice for at least the first half of the season."

WOW, that's huge. I think before it was neck and neck for favorites to win the North but I think we just took the clear cut lead!

Btw, why wouldn't he have the surgery months ago, what an idiot. Why do a lot of WRs go crazy after they have their first good season.

Maybe he's pissed because after starting the Pro Bowl last season the Vikings want him to play for his $400,000 rookie contract instead of recognizing his efforts last season. I'm sure Brett has a good opinion on this subject that he can discuss with the newly acquired Javon Walker.

Just learned that Rice is represented by D*** R*senh***.

What a weird coincidence.

That he was holding out for money and decided just now to get surgery? Or that he jumped off the deep end a la T.O.?

How about he tried pushing through the pain and realized he needed surgery. Yes he was a dummy for waiting this long to get surgery or it looked at.. But to say he did so because he wants more money is ridiculous.. Especially if you knew the guy and how humble he is.

Theories aside, this is a big loss for the Vikings.

I agree.

I'm almost motivated to go back a few years and see what individual Packer fans here thought of Rice and how he was gonna turn out and compare those thoughts with what they are saying about him now.

Heh.

Zero2Cool (17h) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (21h) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (21h) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (22h) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (22h) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (22h) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (22h) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (22h) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (22h) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (22h) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (22h) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (22h) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (23h) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (23h) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (23h) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (23h) : 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.

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?
