'14 VA LB Greer Martini (Notre Dame Signee)

[Some Irish Bloke]

I have never been. Not the most familiar with the Detroit area being a West sider. I'll definitely have to stop in now!

Sweetwater Tavern, it's nothing special in appearance and the service is usually substandard, but those wings are worth it. They make the coleslaw in house too They have cheap public parking right behind the building for game-days, and they provide a shuttle to and from the game. Hope you enjoy if you swing by!

side note: Greer Martini would love these wings. (wanted to at least mention him in his own thread lol)

 

[NDinMI]

I'll be there as well. I make the annual trip to Ford Field for the cheese head takeover. I usually head to Sweetwater Tavern, get some of their dynamite wings, and then bar hop rather than tailgate.

Greer Martini and Kendall Donnerson each had solid debuts for the Packers. Martini made some effective plays on special teams while Donnerson forced a fumble in the second half. Both of those developments will go a long way towards giving Martini and Donnerson a legitimate shot at making the roster.

didnt make packers 53 but signed to their practice squad

I know I didn't make $130k my first year out of school - not a bad consolation prize.

had a nice INT at the weekend there

Could end up being one of the few to transition back to the NFL after some success in the AAF.

He's young, and he's got "Special Teams Mainstay" written all over him, as well as plus athleticism for a linebacker.

He just needs to get a tryout, and then get "lucky" when that team experiences some depth issues.

Packers had him on the practice squad and a UFA.. I thought they really liked how hard he played.. I hope he makes someones camp this year.

 

[Luckylucci]

I hope either practice squad rules are changed or one of these leagues catches on (minor league for the NFL, so to speak).

 

[Irishize]

Signed by the Vikings today

 

[Southside Sully]

Good for him, not that AAF was a bench mark, he was getting mentioned each game I saw. Hope he can crack the 53

 

[BobbyMac]

Picked today with the #40 pick in the XFL Front Seven draft by the Dallas Renegades.

 

[CanadalovesND]

Is now a Quality Control coach at Vandy under Lea.

Pretty cool to see, I believe Lea took over as LBs coach for Martini's final season.

She does not have the financial means to pay her past medical expenses and has to pay out-of-pocket for dental work and other necessary medical treatment that is essential for her recovery.

Thank you, I didn't realize there was more to the story and didn't notice the "Read More" at the bottom

A very DC thing to say.... but I hope they get it sorted out. Enjoyed him at ND. God Bless.

If not ruining someone's life financially because they were unlucky enough to get hit by a car is a, "very DC thing", count me in for a lot of that.

Good for Greer --- one of our best instinctive linebackers and I'll bet that it had somewhat to do with lots of film study.
I'm guessing that he's a natural coach.

 

[irishjet34]

Awesome for Greer! I played with quite a few players that have become amazing coaches. It takes a lot more understanding of the game and patience than I will ever have.

Greer Martini was, in my analysis of games for us, solid as a rock, and one our most underrated players.

Very instinctive linebacker. Almost always took the correct route. All best for him as a coach.
