I don't know if I disagree with disallowing the child to run the sidelines. You can't have 40k kids or how ever many running up and down the field.

The Twins let every kid in the stadium that wants to run the bases after each home game. I don't think it would be that detrimental to the field.

I would NOT stop my child from the experience, but I would pay close eye on her, then again, I'm probably over protective. Getting old sucks, it's made me overly cautious as a parent, lol.

But that is just the point.. you would be there watching them attentively, as most parents that have taken the time to take their child to an event as such.

An abduction by a stranger is incredibly unlikely ANYWHERE. Do you know approximately how many children are abducted in this country every year by people other than their own non-custodial parents?

Show Spoiler

A whopping 110.

And over 70% of them are girls, which I happen to have a girl. And you should throw those statistics at someone who's lost their child to an abduction, I'm sure that will make them feel SO much better. Go ahead, give it a whirl. Continue to make it sound like abduction is not a worry. Tell that to the father who watched his daughter walk to the bus stop, car pulls up, snags the daughter and doesn't see her for decades. Tell him hey its unlikely to happen.

I think it weak to worry about an abduction after a game, in which NFL/stadium security stays put until the fans have left the stadium.

Liability concerns I could see.. but not abduction concerns.

Now.. with all the media types and equipment could be a concern.. and not so much with the Twins as who cares, the place is empty most of the time. ;)

You've never came back to your desk after a meeting went over an hour longer than scheduled to find 19 missed calls, 12 voice mails, 7 of which are your 9 year old daughter crying her eyes out saying "daddy help me, please help me i dont know where i am".

An abduction in a stadium isn't likely, sure (which is all the more reason why it could happen because its NOT expected), but neither is a bus driver forcing a 9 year old off the bus after she is crying saying "this isnt my stop". But, guess what, it did happen this past Thursday.

I hope you put up a fit, and I hope the asshole lost his job if his record is anything but squeaky-clean.

It's my understanding it was a sub driver and they will not be subbing anywhere in the area again. They refused to give me the persons name, not sure why. Probably a good thing though. They said it was not proper protocol and assured me it will never happen again.

I would still have her run the sidelines at Lambeau Field. Since we got to Colorado, she's taking a warming to the Packers.

Meh? Empty most of the time? Forgive me if I misunderstand you, but the Twins have set a single-season attendance record for the franchise with over 3 million people that passed through the turnstiles. Target Field is FAR from empty. 🙂

Zero2Cool (10h) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (13h) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (13h) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (15h) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (15h) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (15h) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (15h) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (15h) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (15h) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (15h) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (15h) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (15h) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (15h) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (15h) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (15h) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

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

dfosterf (17h) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (17h) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (17h) : 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.

Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Will there be a tracker on the ball or something?
