Yeah I knew about the MS Surface ipads. I just lumped them all into Apple mode. Just because I'm lazy and it just doesn't matter what we call them. I don't even own anything Apple.

I keep seeing this crap of trading Rodgers to Vegas and they get Carr in return and I ask why do we want that cap hit? Also I am guessing the Raiders will have to ask Adams before anything as the reason he went to the Raiders was to be with Carr and left Rodgers at the alter. Now my guess as who would be the best trade partner to me would be Seattle. Geno is a FA after the year and the Seahawks have $50 million in cap space, they have 2 stud wideouts and a young back. They also have the picks to give up by using their own 1sts and 2nds. (They are currently standing with the #3 pick and could actually move all the way to #1 from Denver) They have Geno and Lock as FA so they have to sign someone, so trade for Rodgers for 2 years or 3 maybe and with the early pick grab one of the stud QBs to let him sit for a couple years. Would Rodgers go there is the question and I say he would as I think he would love to be able to play SF twice a year and to stick it to them.  So to me that would be the best case scenario especially if they lose their last 2 then we could get #9 overall. But then again people will say it will never happen because we would make Seattle stronger, but I am not planning for Super Bowl in Loves first year so let Seattle battle for it as we know he will choke in the playoffs anyway.

They now steal and bully their technologies away from small time developers (e.g. people like me) and small companies. They know they can drag litigation out with their big shot lawyers and eventually force small companies to "settle". They have done this dozens of times. 

One thing that I do respect and admire about Apple is they have brilliant marketing strategy. Granted, when asked why they charge so much for the iPhone, the head sales person remarked "people view iPhone as status symbol" and inferred they knew they can charge whatever they want and the clowns will still buy it up. Nowadays Samsung steals from Apple. Apple steals from Samsung. The phones are similar in features with the exception that Apple still forces you to be an Apple sheep whereas Samsung (for the most part) allows you freedom.

Terrified anyone might share a file. Fuck the Empire.

And about the Seattle rumor, no I don’t think so. I was just responding to dhazer’s suggestion.

I don't think any QB with great options is going towards Pete Carroll and his old school philosophy...

Basically run the ball and play defense for 3 quarters... and only wants to pass the ball to get them out of holes ... otherwise he just wants a game manager QB.

When someone says, "I think", means they do not know
Fan Shout
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) : And the OL protections seem to be good.

Mucky Tundra (9-May) : 4th
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
Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers actually had Ray Lewis on the phone.
Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers wanted to draft Ray Lewis. Ravens stole him.
Martha Careful (6-May) : Happy 93rd Birthday to the Greatest Baseball Player of All-Time...Willie Mays
Zero2Cool (6-May) : Walter Stanely's son
buckeyepackfan (6-May) : and released CB Anthony Johnson and DL Deandre Johnson and waived/injured WR Thyrick Pitts (thigh-rick).
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 (3-May) : Jordan Love CAN sign an extension as of today. Might tak weeks/months though
TheKanataThrilla (3-May) : Packers decline 5th year option for Stokes
Mucky Tundra (3-May) : @ProFootballTalk Jaylen Warren: Steelers' special teams coach has discussed Justin Fields returning kicks.
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.
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Not that he's making excuses, just pointing it out
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : That's for dang sure. Make our erratic kicker have no excuse!
packerfanoutwest (28-Apr) : having a great long snapper is gold
Zero2Cool (28-Apr) : LaFleur looking like he had some weight. Coachin will do that lol
