That's just another way to show that Bears fans have no class at all.

Fact is, the GM is a sore loser and ABUSED his power as the GM.

A General Manager has broad, overall responsibility for a business or organization. Whereas a manager may be responsible for one functional area, the General Manager is responsible for all areas.

General Managers manage through subordinate manager. However, a General Manager may have individuals reporting to him/her who are not managers.

A General Manager has the power to hire, fire, or promote employees.

A General Manager is responsible for higher level planning than a manager. A General Manager is often responsible for the overall strategic planning and direction of the company or organization and leaves the day-to-day management of the various functions to the managers.

Please point out where this GM has "Abused" his power. You may not agree with his position, (beyond the blatant insubordination I don't think the salesman did anything fireable) but just because you don't agree with him doesn't make him abusive. You mean to tell me that you have a better idea about whether the employee that was fired was a good employee for the company to have or not than the General Manager?

Gee...why is it every time I admit to being single people reduce it to me needing to get laid?

Okay, I admit to rather too-regular celibacy over a period of years...okay, decades...but still. Its not as if I couldn't afford my own prostitute if I were so inclined. Heck, Foster even told me where to go once or twice.

Pfft pfft pfft.

The employee is an idiot.

He could have worn his Packers thong to honor his mom instead of the tie.

I want to go out like my Grandpa did. Peacefully in his sleep.
Not screaming in terror like his passengers.

Agreed, Porforis. The employer has the right to determine the uniform of the job. The man was given a choice, and he decided his tie was worth more than his job. No sympathy for the narcissic douchebag.

Same as I should have the choice that the face of my company should not be full of piercings and tattoos. Get past your Packer pride, everyone. It is his business to run as best possible...and he gave the guy a choice...and he made it.

IMO this has to do with the right to be whom you are - if we wanted to live in fear and have a police state then we should be what in china or some other dictatorship type of country.

But we arnt ... and as long as the guy wasnt being rude about things then the gm is abusing his power.

People shouldnt have to fear to be themself and express themself - the guy deserves a hats off if anything ... and ya endorsing the bears doesnt mean you cant say the packers didnt do a good job.

Problem is this.

The dealership has a sponsorship with a Bears connected radio station.

They openly support the Bears, obviously in the hope of trying to lure fans of the team to buy a car.

Having a salesman with a Packer tie might be somewhat of a repellant, right after a loss like that.

I don't know if he was completely in his right when he fired the salesman. I think he wouldn't have been in The Netherlands and the man would've had his job back.

The owner's reaching a bit, but if he has the law behind him, it's somewhat understandable. I wouldn't have done it, but it's understandable.

Besides, Wisconsin car sale companies should be jumping on this opportunity to get some good PR.

beast (7h) : 6 days

wpr (17-Apr) : 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.
