but get louder now wants to fling accusations upon me in other threads which aren't correct.. so apparently there is an emotional attachment to this player here.. and I am searching for why.

Did I do that? I'm honestly not sure, maybe I did, but I don't remember flinging any accusations at you.

As far as any emotional attachment, I just have the standard "I wish the best for this Packer player" kind of attachment that I have for just about all of them.

I don't get why some Packer fans get so emotionally invested in HATING Packer players. Not sure if you qualify personally or not, but a lot of Packer forums are filled with people who's favorite sport is attacking Harrell, Bush, Colledge, Bigby, Crosby, Martin, Jackson, etc. I find it annoying. I think it's really fucking stupid.

I coach JV football and I have my own beliefs on how to identify the work horses from the slackers. Not all the coaches agree and discussions do occur where certain coaches have to backup their positions with their own evidence. Personally I like to ask a lot of questions of players. Just because someone looks like they aren't watching or mentally participating, I can't rush to judgement. I liken that to pop-quizzes in class. You learn real fast which kids are really interested and engaged. I may ask them a question or may throw them into a situation and have them show me.

Now being that I'm not privey to all happenings on the practice field at all times I have to trust the people that are directly involved with working with the kids. In the end though, I don't think there is a fool proof litmus test. And then on top of everything you have the pressure of the parents, which I liken to the beat writers. They have an invested interest in the team and are willing to share their viewpoints quite readily. In the end gamedays prove everything.

Well good then.. I don't hate Harrell.. I just think a player, regardless the name upon the jersey.. whom has been extended multiple chances to make an impact not out working every other player in camp because he wants it more than any other player in camp. The player in the situation.. not the player himself.

Nothing more.. nothing less.

Clear.. great.

So you can keep your really fucking stupid in this case.. unless there is something else.

Agreed.. for the most part.. but kids on a High School field are in a much different place than an NFL player.

But it is an excellent question posed by Wade that I will expand my thoughts on.

Well, like I said, I don't know if you qualify as one of the fans who hates on Packer players constantly or not. Really don't know. The "really fucking stupid" thing was in explanation of my defense of Packer players who fall into the whipping boy position on these forums, and was not aimed at you or anyone specific. Just explaining where I'm coming from when I take the time to counter what I see as unfairly negative opinions. Same reason I have a Jarrett Bush avatar.

Honestly, I don't think I even read the majority of pages of this topic. This is just one of four forums I read and post at. I can see how you would think I was coming at you specifically, but that's not the case. Cheers.

Nope, I didn't, and I appreciate it. Maybe I'm coming across wrong, but again, I have noting against you, and I think you may have me confused with someone else if you are having accusations flung at you. Don't think I did that. Go Pack!

There is a reason Harrell feels that people think he is lazy..

http://gnb.scout.com/2/971263.html

Harrell knows what you think of him. You think hes lazy. You think hes soft. You think hes a bust.

I am getting tired of (hearing it) but its one of those things thats expected, he said at his locker on Wednesday. It probably wont ever go away, even if I go out and have a good season.

"pack93z" wrote:

So wouldn't you as a player be challenged by that, fired up now deemed healthy and erase that notion?

I know I would.. and that is where my judgment is derived.

But I wave the white flag.. the majority says I am wrong.. great.. we shall see how it plays out.

I mean if the guys back is screwed up, what can you really do? He's 300 pounds. He's going to be slammed around and put on his ass and his back 500 times per year playing and practicing. If the back isnt fixed(which it seems it's not completely) the injury or pain will reoccur and well, it is what it is. Back injuries are painful when all you have to do is sit in a chair all day in front of a computer at work. I couldn't imagin having to play defensive tackle after 2 back surgeries. It is what it is. We drafted him and knew about the injury I believe, or maybe it was another injury. May as well move on if he cant make the grade week one of this season. Give the roster spot to someone who can contribute and wish Mr. Harrell the best of luck in the future.

Let's let Harrell play a preseason before we go all emo.

haha emo ...

I find it interesting Harrell is suddenly getting all this negative spotlight from the media after the scrimmage which lots of people reported good things about him. Even a couple people said they thought Harrell got the best push all of the DL men.

beast (51m) : Either the Cowboys have no idea what they're doing, or they're targeting their former OC, currently the Eagles OC

Zero2Cool (17h) : Fake news. Cowboys say no

Zero2Cool (18h) : Mystery candidate in the Cowboys head coaching search believed to be Packers ST Coordinator Rich Bisaccia.

beast (23-Jan) : Also why do both NYC teams have absolutely horrible OL for over a decade?

beast (23-Jan) : I wonder why the Jets always hire defensive coaches to be head coach

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Still HC positions available out there. I wonder if Hafley pops up for one

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Trent Baalke is out as the Jaguars GM.

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Jeff Hafley would have been a better choice, fortunately they don't know that. Someone will figure that out next off season

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Aaron Glenn Planning To Take Jets HC Job

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Martha- C'est mon boulot! 😁

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you

wpr (22-Jan) : Z, glad you are feeling better.

wpr (22-Jan) : My son and D-I-L work for UM. It's a way to pick on them.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you. I rarely get sick, and even more rarely sick to the point I can't work.

wpr (22-Jan) : Beast- back to yesterday, I CAN say OSU your have been Michigan IF the odds of making the playoffs were more urgent.

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Glad to hear you are feeling a bit better.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : I've been near death ill last several days, finally feel less dead and site issues.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : It is a big deal. This host is having issues. It's frustrating.

Martha Careful (22-Jan) : just kidding...it was down

Martha Careful (22-Jan) : you were blocked yesterday, due to a a recalcitrant demeanor yesterday in the penalty box for a recalcitrant demeanor

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Was that site shutdown on your end or mine? No big deal, just curious

beast (21-Jan) : That way teams like Indiana and SMU don't make the conference championships by simply avoiding all the other good teams in their own confere

beast (21-Jan) : Also, with these "Super Conferences" instead of a single conference champion, have 4 teams make a Conference playoffs.

beast (21-Jan) : Also in college football, is a bye week a good or bad thing?

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : The tournament format was fine. Seeding could use some work.

beast (21-Jan) : You can't assume Ohio State would of won the Michigan game...

beast (21-Jan) : Rankings were 1) Oregon 2) Georgia 3) Texas 4) Penn State 5) Notre Dame 6) Ohio State, none of the rest mattered

wpr (21-Jan) : Texas, ND and OSU would have been fighting for the final 2 slots.

wpr (21-Jan) : Oregon and Georgia were locks. Without the luxury of extra playoff berths, Ohios St would have been more focused on Michigan game.

wpr (21-Jan) : Zero, no. If there were only 4 teams Ohio State would have been one of them. Boise St and ASU would not have been selected.

Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : So that was 7 vs 8, that means in BCS they never would made it?

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : A great game. Give ND credit for coming back, although I am please with the outcome.

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : FG to make it academic

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : and there's the dagger

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Ooooo that completion makes things VERY interesting

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Game not over yet

beast (21-Jan) : Oh yeah, Georgia starting quarterback season ending elbow injury

beast (21-Jan) : Sadly something happened to Georgia... they should be playing in this game against Ohio State

beast (21-Jan) : I thought Ohio State and Texas were both better than Notre Dame & Penn State

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Notre Lame getting rolled

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : Ohio State just got punched in the gut. Lets see how they respond

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Notre Lame vs the Luckeyes, bleh

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Oh snap!!!

Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : Even Stevie Wonder can see that.

Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : Nah, you see Lions OC leaving to be HC of Bears is directly related to Packers.

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : ohhhhhhh Zero is in TROUBLE

packerfanoutwest (21-Jan) : Zero, per your orders, check Bearshome, not packershome

Zero2Cool (20-Jan) : Then he'll land with another team and flourish.
