I don't understand this, but I hope guys like Barnett, Finley, and Grant will be motivated next season to get here as well.

I still don't think I agree with it, but I guess the more important thing is that the excluded players don't feel snubbed...

There are 15 of them on IR

Do they bring them all down for the photo?

Take a picture after with the Superbowl in front of the team.

Stay focused.

Being injured = IR = punishment

Just now heard about this on the radio and I'm confused.

Must the picture be taken on Tuesday, which is before (Thursday) when the IR players arrive?

Did the Packers say to take the picture Tuesday, rather than Thursday? Does the league disallow the IR players to be in the picture?


Basically, who made what decisions? I've read and heard conflicting reports.


I could understand having the picture taken on Tuesday, since they are getting back into their practice routine on Friday and that would cramp it up a bit, but why not have the IR folks come earlier?


What the hell are the rules about this???

Tuesday is the league mandated "Media Day", so I'm assuming that, yes, the photo must be taken Tuesday.

This might sound cold-hearted, but who really cares? This seems like just another Twitter controversy to me. Let the team's management figure out what to do about it.

I'm sure the decision makers knew this was going to happen. I'm sure they've got a plan on what to do going forward.

I'm not so sure, Greg.

It really does look like a bit of a personnel and PR faux pas here.

If the IR'd players are going to be "full participants" in the "festivities" starting Thursday, they could just as easily be full participants on Tuesday when the pic is taken.

My bet is that those on IR would value inclusion in that picture highly. We have all read how frustrating it can be to those guys being on the "outside" looking in.

They didn't get hurt skiing or skateboarding or some other b.s. after all. They got hurt in the collective effort to get this team where it is today.

It is at least possible that now that the media got ahold of this info the FO/whatever will revisit the issue.

The rehab schedule explanation is kind of weak, imo--

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : and because it's not a dynasty league (which makes a lot more sense to be ability to trade picks)
Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Oh I know; I was just exploring and it blew my mind that you could trade picks because of the whole reordering thing
Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Zero, I think I preferred my offer: your 1st for my 15th rounder
