Vick spent his first night of freedom at a strip club

But on the other hand, you know ... there are unclothed women in there. In the pen, it's nothing but the fellas. The day that a man who was locked up for two years cannot go out and pay to see some lady parts is the day I no longer want to call myself an American.

Going to a strip club is not illegal. It doesn't make anyone a bad person. Most people are not Pacman Jones, and can go to a strip club without having to seek legal counsel the next morning.

Illegal isn't the discussion here. It's the decision making process. This is not what anyone would consider smart preperation for the biggest job interview of their life.

Bad judgement then, bad judgement now. You can't fix stupid.

No, it's not illegal; but the point about the impression it makes on Roger Goodell (the man who will decide Vicks fate, and also a man who's had to deal with guys like Pac Man Jones) is a valid one.

100% agree... if he wants to see naked lady parts, rent a porno. He is free and clear to go wherever he wants... he is free and clear to continue to make stupid decisions. He will only have himself to blame when he is never given the chance to play football again.

I don't see anything wrong with it personally. Yeah, going the first night out is bad timing if Goddell takes offense, but he'd be a fool to take that into consideration of his decision, although the court of public opinion has to weigh in on the matter and it's not good so far, I don't understand why, but I don't have to understand. If I'd been in jail for almost 2 years, I'd want to see some female flesh myself. Now I've only been to strip clubs a half a dozen times in my life, but I've got nothing against them. He didn't make it rain and there was no shooting or anything, let it go... :lol:

not illegal but no also not a great decision. As a responsible adult I definitely wouldn't go there if I wanted a job in the NFL and just got out of jail but I also wouldn't find myself in prison for dog fighting either.

Trying to clean up his image and get reinstated in the NFL, it's just a stupid decision. I'd probably be thinking the same thing if I just got out of prison, but in his situation I'd get my friends to rent a hotel room and hire some strippers or something along those lines. Basically, whatever I could do to keep it out of the public eye. No way I would just walk into a strip club.

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
