Quote:It should be crystal clear that Blackmon has no intention of returning. If he did, he'd be here. Plenty of time has passed for him to get back on the wagon and it's apparent that isn't going to happen so we need to just assume he isn't on the roster. This topic is becoming more like the Tim Tebow posts for the last couple of years as being the biggest dead horse we've beaten.

 

I'm skeptical that he is even at the point where he can apply for reinstatement.  That window MAY just be opening now considering the incident last July.  So, what his intentions are at this point remain to be seen.  The fact that he's not here has more than likely nothing to do with his intentions, and may be simply a matter of logistics. 

 

I agree it's a dead horse until such time as he applies for reinstatement.  Until that happens, there's absolutely nothing to talk about.
