MIKE ALREADY BEING A MEATHEAD (1 Viewer)

[reg]

According to the guys at KFFL.com, new Jaguars assistant head coach Mike Tice told Jacksonville radio station WOKV on Wednesday that he already has spoken with one of the Minnesota Vikings' 16 free agents regarding the possibility of joining the Jags for 2006. Tice declined to name the player.

The problem is that, until free agency opens, these players remain the property of the Minnesota Vikings. Thus, Tice has admitted to a tampering violation.

The development should surprise no one. Tice reluctantly conceded a year ago to the scalping of Super Bowl tickets, in blatant violation of league rules. The Commissioner imposed a $100,00 fine against Tice for the transgression.

This time around, the Vikings likely will be required to file tampering charges before the Commish can act. And we wonder whether the NFL will "stack" dissimilar offenses when disciplining guys who can't seem to stay on the right side of obvious rules.

It'll be interesting to see what happens next.

He even made the pic of the day over there. http://www.profootballtalk.com/WienerCar.jpg

I have a theory about Mike Tice.Basically, he's just not too bright.

If you are going to exagerate that much on his brightness, I will need a link.

I think he and GWB are related! Good job Del Rio...bringing over a moron.

I knew Del Rio was an idiot. I hope Tice embarrases that franchise just like he did the Vikings and Jacksonville will get rid of Del Rio next year...as well as Tice of course.

He was just hired... is it tampering if its before you are hired by a team?

How would he have been able to talk to said player about joining the Jags if he wasn't hired by them?

I think if Tice had talked to players while he was [technically] unemployed, the Jags could not be held accountable for his actions.Edited - Not being privy to the actual circumstance and what was said, it could have been "Would you [said player] be interested in following me to another team?" - Tice.

I agree. Wish I could hear the actual audio rather than KFFL's summary.

He was obviously in talks with the Jags before they actually hired him. If he knew he was going to the Jags and talked to player before officially being hired.. is it tampering?

I don't think so. If it were to be tampering I think the Jaguars would first be allowed the option to let Tice go. It would be hard to charge the Jaguars with tampering when the guy who did it did not actually work for you (and go through team orientation if you will).

Tice should be managing a home depot somewhere, with Haslett as his assistant coach.

 

[QuizGuy66]

You'd allow Tice to work in a building full of hammers and saws?!?-QG

 

[slimflop]

It has to be M. Bennett Tice loves that guy.

Sometimes he forgets and puts that pencil through his ears.

someone's got a grudge against Home Depot...

Does anyone know where we can find a download of that Steakhouse radio jingle Tice sang? They used to play it as a joke on the radio here in Austin all the time, and it was classic Mike. I had no luck tracking it down via Google, but if anyone can point us to it, I promise it's worth a listen.

Is it possible to scalp tickets to the sponge-painting technique demonstration?

?????Tice and Bennett will NEVER be on the same team. Bennett was in Tice's doghouse so many times he had to have a flea bath once a month.

Once a meathead....always a meathead!

Yeah, I work there, and yes, he'd be a great fit.

Tice should be the anchor on a small boat managing a home depot somewhere, . . .

Fixed.
