This isn't High School.
This isn't College.

These guys are professionals.

Eddie let the whole team down.

McCarthy did the only thing he could, bench him.

Eddie will either get help, and come back ready to play, or he will eat himself out of the league.

I guess we will know more as the draft and then ota's get closer.

Here's hoping Eddie gets it together and comes back ready to dominate.

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

Guy looks positively svelte. Wow.

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

I've never quite understood this aspect of professional athletics. You pay your nutritionists and S&C staff handsomely (I assume) but all these guys go rogue from January until TC.

If I'm an organization, I'd want my players on my routine - not off eating Gilbert Burgers or "Sweating to the Oldies" for 6 months.

That's why you have to try to draft for good hard working blue collar players.
Though I have thought/wondered if the Packers might have too many that lead by example or maybe more correctly said not enough that lead vocally. Could it be that Woodson vocally leading was one of the things that put them over the top?

The Packers seem to have a lot of natrual leaders, but almost all of them are leaders by example and almost none that are naturally vocal leaders... Daniels seems like he's one, but that's seems to be about it. Though I'll also give props to Lang, while that's technical leading by example, he takes it to a whole different level, where his actions to speak volumes and rally guys at times, when he stands up for teammates.

This whole fiasco shows was an absolute JOKE this team's training situation is.

Mike has MORE THAN ONCE "redidicated himself" and the team to PREVENTING INJURIES as a priority. Yet we continue to lose guys to freak and often career ending injuries at a pace exceeding most NFL teams.

You've got guys going OUTSIDE the organization to find yoga teachers in Green Bay.

Now you've got your star RB who thinks so little of your training program, that he's spending the offseason with a dude who makes infomercials about how you can get fit in your living room.

So I don't ever wanna hear Mike bitching about Ted again. Not at least until he gets his own shit together.

There's absolutely not enough time to monitor every player's diet especially in the offseason. I'm sure they do what they can.

Do you schedule the team plans/drills around the majority of the team who correctly do their job of staying in shape? Or do you focus in on the slackers who fail to stay in shape, while the guys that did their job in the first place just wait around and do nothing new?

Lacy (or almost anyone else with a credit card) could of ordered the program offline and be starting it within a week (probably even 1 to 3 working days).

Of course he'd still have his day job, but most people do...

The thing is, if Lacy got hurt during the season doing a work out not ok'd by the team, maybe there would be a backlash for Lacy.
I'm glad he's FINALLY getting serious.
I can't wait to see how it works on the field.

Zero2Cool (9h) : Sources spoke of many, many times last summer where Hackett called a play, then Rodgers changed it completely at the line

Martha Careful (10-May) : 1. this is true of all our linemen. 2. His run block is fine. 3. If all OL played like he has, we would win SB.

beast (10-May) : Meyers pass blocking is really good, his run blocking is really not.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : Packers have claimed DE Spencer Waege off of waivers from the 49ers and waived DT Rodney Mathews.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : because he's 1st

Mucky Tundra (9-May) : Myers isn't even the 3rd best C on the roster atm

Martha Careful (9-May) : I am not sure I understand the Myers hate. He was consistently our third best lineman. RG and LT were worse.

beast (9-May) : Just saying I don't think moving Myers would help Myers.

beast (9-May) : Center is usually considered the easiest position physically if you can handle the snap stuff.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : Bust it is then

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Context. Sounds like Myers won't be cross-trained. C or bust.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : @BookOfEli_NFL Packers pass game coordinator, Jason Vrable said that Jayden Reed and Dontayvion Wicks shared a placed in Florida while train

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : For now...

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers go about evaluating their "best five," OL coach Luke Butkus makes on thing clear: "Josh Myers is our center."

beast (8-May) : Though I'm a bit surprised letting go of CBs, I thought we needed more not less

beast (8-May) : It was confusing with two DB Anthony Johnson anyways

buckeyepackfan (6-May) : The Green Bay Packers have signed WR Julian Hicks, OL Lecitus Smith (luh-SEET-us) and WR Dimitri Stanley

Zero2Cool (6-May) : Petty, but it's annoying me how the NFL is making the schedule release an event.

Mucky Tundra (4-May) : @mattschneidman Matt LaFleur on how he tore his pec: “Got in a fight with the bench press. I lost.”

Zero2Cool (2-May) : Season officially ending tonight for Bucks ... sad face

Zero2Cool (2-May) : Giannis Antetokounmpo is listed as out for tonight's game.

dfosterf (2-May) : Surprisingly low initially is my guess cap wise, but gonna pay the piper after that

dfosterf (2-May) : The number on Love is going to be brutal.

Zero2Cool (2-May) : May 3rd. Extension day for Jordan Love. (soonest)

Zero2Cool (1-May) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!

earthquake (1-May) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage

beast (1-May) : Why can't the rookies be a day 1 starter? Especially when we grabbed 3 of them at the position

dfosterf (1-May) : Not going to be shocked if Gilmore goes to the Lions.

dfosterf (1-May) : I hear you dhazer, but my guess would be Gilmore Colts and Howard Vikings from what little has been reported.

Mucky Tundra (30-Apr) : S learn from McKinney who learns from Hafley who learns from the fans. Guaranteed Super Bowl

Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : could*

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Safeties should learn from Xavier.

dhazer (29-Apr) : And what about grabbing a Gilmore or Howard at CB ? Those are all Free Agents left

dhazer (29-Apr) : out of curiosity do they try and sign Simmons or Hyde to let these young safeties learn from, they can't be day 1 starters.

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : I miss having Sam Shields.
