Stephen A. is loud... but I like that dude. Smart guy.
His kid must have been sleeping or something when he made that video. He was almost whispering.
CK would look good in purple.

But you gotta admit....his vocabulary is a thesaurus.
So if his vocabulary is only made up of words that mean other words, does he have no vocabulary at all?

Now that the "workout" is over....let's open up the discussion a little bit.

Some good stuff from both Stephen A & Max. Google the Stephen A stuff. It's powerful.
Kaep should have been a Packer in 2017, when Rodgers went out in week 6. He may no be good enough to be a starter but you can't tell me he wasn't an upgrade from Brett Hundley.
Andrew Brandt was on top of this and put it pretty well, saying the timing of all this made it clear it was a sham. Media access, receivers, filming, and liability waivers should have been hammered out weeks in advance. The fact it wasn't just shows that the NFL didn't think this through whatsoever.
Also read that the president of the Georgia bar association said that no competent lawyer ever would have let Kaep sign the NFL's waiver. This just makes the NFL look like idiots. Maybe they did this to try and get some heat off Al Riveron?

Yeah, he could have ignored MM as well as Hundley or any other QB GB had.

I think it's funny that he people believe only one side of the issue is at fault. The NFL is a dirtbag organization who is probably fucking him over and CK seems like a humongous douche who seemingly wants attention more than he wants to be on a roster. I wish both would STFU. Eric Reid should STFU also and learn to play football better.
Plus he has the strangest Fond du Lac accent Iâve ever heard.

McStupidFace disagrees.

That's a fairly low bar. The bottom line is winning, yes? You can't tell me the Packs record would've been any different.
Hard to say, at a minimum CK is a savvier and better runner than Hundley. The PIT and DET defenses were mighty soft against the run that year, it's reasonable to assume CK could have chewed up some yardage against them. Can't say that would have changed those games though. If it had we're looking at a 9-7 season.
Interesting Take by Charles Robinson
I don't know that CK can ever play in the NFL again. And I really don't know that CK wants to play in the NFL again. That whole "workout" was odd? As someone mentioned in the first CK thread, do we care about other FAs working out for a team?? Why did it have to be an event??

It's the premise not the dbags who fell into it. Everybody wants to keep the circus in town.
Pretty sure Matt Moore didn't have a workout. Reid just gave him a call. Considering how stupid this whole thing is does anyone think there's actual interest from teams?
I think there was a team that was interested (Bears?? Wouldn't that be hilarious) But that team didn't want to be "outted" hence the "workout"
Great point about Matt Moore
If I never hear from Kappy..... I would be very happy.
You don't want to hear that great Wisconsin accent?
See, it was a productive audition.
