I think we should all quit with the dramatics and stop being so petty. I mean, shit, we finally have PACKERS FOOTBALL again, quit the bitching.

i agree. i just made a stupid observation post and everybody shat their panties over it. i don't even really CARE that much about our running game one way or the other. whatever happened to taking my posts with a grain of salt, having fun on a message board about a fun topic or...y'know...not doing this:

I agree with Twinkiegorilla.

G-Force said: "I don't think anyone said "F Ryan Grant, Ryan Grant blows"(Greg C.) Some people should stop over reacting, read the title of thread and REALIZE that everyone is going to have a difference in opinion on certain things."

I was quoting TwinkleGorilla. I don't make stuff up. Here's the quote:

* Grant: fuck you.
* Jackson: fuck you, stop running into your own men like Grant.

I think the people who are overreacting are the ones who are bitching about Ryan Grant after a preseason game in which he carried the ball three times.

I happen to very much agree with Greg in this case.. I happen to dislike the this guy sucks or F&*$ this guy... but it speaks more about the poster than the player.

Constructive criticism or calling for events in which there is valid reasons that are somewhat thought out are one thing.. pigeon hole blasting players, especially productive players such as Grant is over the top.

Unless you are a poster that really doesn't want your posts to reflect your thoughts.. but then don't get your hair wound up when someone disagrees with your silly posts.

I am all for having fun.. but some of this "fun" I don't get.. hence why I am not a regular in the game day chat.. I don't think dropping F bombs every post or player X sucks... but each to their own.

Grant is a consistent 1,200 yard back in a potent offense. Do we really need anything more? He only fumbled once last year versus Peterson's double digits. Is 600 more yards worth all those turnovers?

I've dogged Grant in the past, even went as far as saying he had tiny nut syndrome (TNS). A lot of his problems are probably due to a questionable line.

I was thinking about this 2 days ago.

Last time there was packers football I was discussing marriage with a gf of mine; was working a non rewarding job in a decent area of london.

during the off season - we broke up, I took a job in a crap hole area of london for a job that was craptastically much worse and didnt think I could find a decent chick here again.

Now we have packers football again; I have a new gf whom is much 'better' then my old one, Im out of work yet at peace with what will develope in my future - so ya Zero I agree.

how about those packers ...

That is what I was thinking at the game.
-It was hot as hell. (But at least it was humid too.)
-I had on the Double D jersey that I got thru Zero matted to my back.
-The coaches were calling a plain jane game.
-A bunch of Nimrods were trying to start The Wave while GB was on offense. After trying 5 times and failing 5 times some girl screamed, "This is Lambeau get up off your fat...." I hollered back to try it when we were on defense instead. They never once tried when the defense was on the field. They did in another part of the stadium and it worked.
-People were leaving at halftime.
But I was thinking- AT LEAST I AM IN GB WATCHING FOOTBALL AGAIN! :thumbright:

What is happening? People giving opinions?

I happen to think Grant among many others Saturday night need to pick up the effort.. but otherwise I am just agreeing with Greg, when people seem to over-react it is an over-reaction.. unless you are a poster that isn't serious some of the time.. then we seem lost because intent unknown.. nothing more, nothing more than calling out some for being too serious.

Now back to the game... re-watched the game last night.. Underwood had a very solid effort overall.. Lee and Williams not so much.

?

Who is freaking out.. I posted in agreement with another poster.. but made it very clear people are different and sometimes it is hard to see.

So take the Xanax yourself.. I take pride in trying not to directly offend another poster.. and I tried to in my post on this page. Not that others haven't... so I don't see the issue causing your re-post.

Back to the topic... Peter Kings MMQB comment on Rodgers..

k. Saw nothing of it, but how about Aaron Rodgers completing his first 10 throws and 12 of 13 overall, for 159 yards, against Cleveland? Can you find a weakness in that guy's game?

Rodgers was incredibly razor freaking sharp Saturday night..his reads, the touch and accuracy was oh so pretty to watch.. reminds me of another Packer QB mid 90's...

Talk about a QB that fit the ball into those little windows.. damn textbook stuff you want your young developing QB's to watch.. and his footwork is so impressive.

You know, I am actually glad there have been some less than stellar performances in the first preseason game.

It is the first time in the season that flaws become visible in actual game situations. Once a problem is visible, it gives the players and the coaches more time to rectify the problem.

Don't worry guys 🙂, there is nothing to anaylse negatively, yet. And besides, 😃 Grant has his best games when he fumbles early :D

We are the luckiest band of fans in the NFL. We root for a beautiful, small-town team with a glorious past that has always maintained itself well. We draft well and can expect new stars every season, even when we transition the grass stays green.

I have much confidence that Rodgers/McCarthy/Woodson and co will be hoisting OUR trophy at the end of the season.

Zero2Cool is my captain.

For what its worth I was very encouraged watching the game. AR looked solid, the O-line looked improved. I would like to see more in the running game, o-line and rb's. I am sure that Grant will be OK and return healthy.

With no serious injurys, what else can we ask for?

wpr (17h) : 7 days

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.

dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move

dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately

Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.

dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.

Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : Did they know that at the time or was that something the realized afterwards?

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Van Ness played most of season with broken thumb

wpr (9-Apr) : yay

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Mark Murphy says Steelers likely to protect Packers game. Meaning, no Ireland

Zero2Cool (8-Apr) : Struggling to figure out what text editor options are needed and which are 'nice to have'

Mucky Tundra (8-Apr) : *CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP*

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : WR who said he'd break Xavier Worthy 40 time...and ran slower than you

Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Who?

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Texas’ WR Isaiah Bond is scheduled to visit the Bills, Browns, Chiefs, Falcons, Packers and Titans starting next week.

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Spotting ball isn't changing, only measuring distance is, Which wasn't the issue.

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : The spotting of the ball IS the issue. Not the chain gang.
