Idk but his life must be a wreck. I hope he turns things around and becomes the player we hoped he would be.  It's all on him now to do better

I'd think if he's doing rehab...the team wouldn't be allowed to say anything about it. Health care privacy and all that...

Im sure if you go down to the local bar and have a drink with him he will give you some updates.

It seems to me that I read the team isn't allowed to communicate with Blackmon during his suspension. But I'm sure there are plenty of alternative methods, which they can't officially comment on.

That's correct. Caldwell covered that in the press conference. He claimed that they don't even know and haven't talked to him.

Before the press conference, I did not realize that the suspension barred him from the Jag's facilities and contact. That's harsh.

That's pretty sad that they can't even find out how he's doing.

Yeah that's an odd way to go about it. You'd think alienating a player from your team and organization would just further push him into the wrong direction and way of things. Really doesn't make much sense.

I don't know if the NFL suspending him and having full control of Blackmon's situation has anything to do with whether or not all team communication is limitied with him.

 

I read somewhere when a multiple offender is down to his last strike, the player while serving his suspension is under the control of the league.


Whether someone has a liberal, or conservative viewpoint, a authoritative figure should not lock a thread for the sole purpose to get the last word in all the while prohibiting someone else from being able to respond.

The ***official update*** is that there is no update.


What lies behind us, and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.

Hopefully he's in rehab getting his life together. It would be such a shame to see his talent wasted, but it's all on him at this point.

Probably the best thing that could be done. His counterparts are still living the good life because they have not made poor decisions while drinking. They are all still allowed to live as  normal adults and enjoy drinking and partying. He can't even have a beer during a golf match or fishing trip. Lot of temptation hanging with the team. I would think the league would make available access to some of the best help available to him.

Shorts said he saw him last week and he was doing good. It was on one of the radio shows, forget which one.
