I think we are going to be quite nervous about our o-line again this next off-season, perhaps even more so than this past off-season...

Some of my ranting on here is merely to get the blood flowing amongst my buds, so please know it is meant only to have something to talk about.

I am absolutely thrilled to be where we are as a team, win or lose Sunday. Ted and Mike have done wonders with the circumstances given them throughout this year.

I would still like Campen fired, but know that is completely unrealistic. There is just NO WAY that Ted is that poor of an evaluator of talent at this set of positions when he has repeatedly proven to be so good at just about every other set.

Hell, it took awhile, but he even found a punter. :)

ANYWAY, I was just trying to take some minds off our NFC championship game a littlebit...

What I'm trying to say is that we need more linemen. 🙂

Now do you all believe me how good Grant really is? 1200+ yards 2 years in a row against THAT OL? He should get a medal.

That's like the third time you have "corrected" me, lol

I got it the first two times, lol

(It's my way of saying that because CAMPEN SUCKS [imo] ) we have to get like a HUNDRED of them so that EVEN HE can get decent play from some configuration of a front five.

There might be some hyperbole in there somewhere, lol

Speaking of forgetful old turds, if I'm not around for the NFC championship game, it's because the library cop got me. (Seinfeld reference)

I'm returning a book this morning. "Pelican Road" I seem to recall that it was a pretty good read. :)

Due date:

"JUL 23 2008"

...Gonna go balance the library budget now. 🙂

Agreed about the O-line--it's not very good--but McGinn didn't say anything inaccurate. He said that Starks "looked like just another running back" in the Atlanta game, and then he listed the stats, which are indeed pretty poor. McGinn didn't say anything either way about how much the O-line contributed to Starks looking like just another running back. I'm guessing that McGinn has figured out by now that the O-line is not very good at run blocking.

I like it when GB runs the ball out of a 1 back set and has 4 WRs. Spread the defense out. Get them thinking pass and run up the middle where they most likely are thinner.

wpr (19h) : 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.
