On whether he's decided how the Packers will vote on the OT proposal: "To tell you the truth I havent even studied it. Somebody put it on my desk the other day, but I havent even had a chance to take a look at it yet."

On why they haven't decided: "It hasnt been presented yet. I do have it and I am going to take a look at it. I always like to hear the presenters present it, so you get the reasons behind why you would do this. Someitmes you go into it with this idea that its not a good idea, then you realize after its presented that it is.

On the current sudden-death OT format: "Im fine with it, especially when we win."

On the fact that it wouldn't have affected the OT playoff loss to Arizona last season: "Im not going to say anything about that personal fouls."

Allow me to clarify here. Thompson smiled before he said personal fouls, but he clearly thinks the non-calls of roughing the passer in the overtime were bad no calls.

On whether the CBA uncertainty and the uncapped 2010 season changed his approach: "I think we decided a long time ago that we would do business the way we do business, and try to do the best we can for the Green Bay Packers. That encompasses everything. Other than that, Im not going to go there. Theres a lot of different things. At the end of the day, were going to try to put a good team on the field.

On whether he will replace personnel analyst John Schneider, who left to become Seattle's GM: "I dont know, well see. It depends on how we make it through the spring. Were functioning pretty well right now."

On whether deposed 49ers GM Scot McGloughan, a former Packers scout, could return to Green Bay: "Ive talked to him as a friend ... I dont know. That would be speculation. I dont even know what his status is, so Im not even going to go there."

On whether the Packers have had any free agents in for visits: "I dont think so, no. We were so focused on our own guys. We had some fairly interesting conversations with some and they decided to sign before they came on a visit (he declined to name them)."

On the Packers being a team on the cusp: "I think we have a pretty good team. I think we had the kind of team that could have won a few more games last year and played a few more games. It didnt work out. I dont think we go about our business any differently. Whatever we can do to get better, were going to try to get better. Weve started the offseason program and our guys are into it, and were looking forward to having a nice quiet spring."

On whether re-signing Clifton, Tauscher, Collins and Pickett means he thinks the team is a contender: "No, were always trying to do the same thing. Quite frankly, I think the 6-10 year was kind of an anomaly. I dont know what that was, but I dont think it was our team. I think weve got a pretty good team. We have to play well; were not the kind of team that can just throw our helmets out there and win the game. But when we play well, were pretty good. Weve got to get some guys back from injury, weve got to every year is a whole new deal. Even though you have some of the same players, its a whole new team, new chemistry and all that. So weve got to do all that. But I think we have capabilities to be a pretty good team."

On what the other NFC North teams have done: "Ah, well Chicago certainly made some big moves, and Detroit made a lot of signings, I dont know what the Vikings did did they sign anybody? They couldnt sign anybody. ... Its going to be a hard, hard league. I think those of you guys that cover us understand how hard it is in this division. Some years some teams may have a little bit harder road, but its a tough division."

On how the offseason has gone: "Im fine with it. We dont keep score in the offseason. Im hopeful that one day that the general public doesnt. ... Thats what we like to do, we like to keep our own guys. And weve been able to keep the vast majority of them. Obviously Aaron (Kampman) moved on, but we wanted to keep these guys.

I liked Rodgers reaction to the non calls better.. at times they are part of the game.. they suck, but not the reason we lost.

BTW... not a direct quote.. but more of a summary. 😉

I wonder what a Ted Thompson giggle would sound like..

Thompson is the master of the understatement. "I think we have a pretty good team." Way to give your men a resounding endorsement there, bucko. 😉
