This sucks (especially the White House trip)...

http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2011/03/20/packers-super-bowl-rings-on-hold-for-now/

The Green Bay Packers will have to wait for some of the usual spoils that come with a Super Bowl title.

Bill Pennington of the New York Times notes that the Packers havent ordered their Super Bowl rings yet. The team wants input from the players, and cant speak with them until the lockout is over. Teams usually have a some sort of ring ceremony during the offseason as well, which will also be put off if there is no agreement.

The Packers trip to the White House has also been delayed indefinitely.

(The Steelers arent going either. James Harrison was right!)

How does it suck? How does it affect you personally in any way?

He never said it affected him in any way personally. He said it sucks. Maybe he meant that it sucks for the players and staff who are looking forward to receiving those rings but will have to wait for them indefinitely.

Where did they mention it was affecting them personally in any way? I know its early for me, and I'm poor with my reading skills but I don't see that anywhere.

Yes it does...I was looking forward to Charles Woodson meeting with President Obama in the White House...

...after the President's comments about going to Dallas if Chicago was in the SB...

...his subsequent visit to Wisconsin in advance of the SB...

...and being given a Woodson-signed Jersey that said "See you in the White House"...

I am DEFINITELY looking forward to that trip...so, yes, it DOES affect me personally... :bounce:

dfosterf (11h) : Probably a homer access credential intimidation kinda thing

dfosterf (11h) : Meathead "journalists" skip this, concentrating on operational revenue when convenient. They switch when net revenue is more favorable.

dfosterf (11h) : Resulting in an actual drop of net revenue of 12.5%. She is from Minnesota. Just sayin'

dfosterf (11h) : Any plans to hold Maureen Smith (CFO) accountable for a 95% drop in investment revenue?

Mucky Tundra (12h) : In your face, HBO!

Mucky Tundra (12h) : @ByRyanWood Mark Murphy: “A great source of pride of mine is that we were never on Hard Knocks.”

Mucky Tundra (12h) : *years

Mucky Tundra (12h) : @mattschneidman Mark Murphy says he anticipates “many Packers games” being played in Germany, Ireland and/or the U.K. over the next 5-10 yea

dfosterf (12h) : *cafeteria* I have hit my head also, so I sympathize

dfosterf (12h) : Possibly hit his head leaning into the glass protecting the food in the cafateria

dfosterf (12h) : Maybe a low flying drone

dfosterf (12h) : Did Savion Williams run into a goalpost or something?

Mucky Tundra (13h) : also, no bueno when a guy starts getting concussions right off the bat in his career

Zero2Cool (13h) : Concussion is worse. Banks probably vet off day via back booboo claim

Mucky Tundra (15h) : @AndyHermanNFL Jordy Nelson out at camp today. No word if he’s in play for one of the two open roster spots ; )

dfosterf (16h) : Is that better or worse than Banks bad back?

Zero2Cool (16h) : Savion concussion ... not good.

packerfanoutwest (24-Jul) : Aaron Rodgers’s first pass of first team period was picked off

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : tbh I didn't hear of his passing

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Cosby Show. Malcom Jamal Warner I think is real name

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : I was thinking of Ozzy and Hulk

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : Who's Theo?

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : How is Theo alliteration?

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : Bad week for people whose names are alliterations

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Hulk Hogan gone too.

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Oh, it's toe injury

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Hope it's not serious. that would stink

dfosterf (24-Jul) : Sounds like an ankle not a knee for Fields

dfosterf (24-Jul) : Ya Flaccp on Browns

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Maybe Tyrod Taylor instead

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : He's on Browns, right?

dfosterf (24-Jul) : They would probably go with Flacco is my guess if Fields out

dfosterf (24-Jul) : Fleece 'em again!

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Malik Willis might be someone Jets come after

packerfanoutwest (24-Jul) : Packers introduce 1923-inspired classic uniform, leather-look helmet

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Happy to see site feels more snappy snappy

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : No sir. I did not.

dfosterf (23-Jul) : You didn't get free childcare when you were at work?

wpr (23-Jul) : These guys make hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. Pay for their own childcare.

dfosterf (23-Jul) : 2nd issue. Number 1 issue was no gameday childcare. 1 of 3 teams not providing it

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Suppose if locker room is main issue, we sitting pretty

wpr (23-Jul) : I thought so Mucky. In those useless player polls GB always rates high overall. Locker is a part of it.

Mucky Tundra (23-Jul) : Wasn't the locker room just updated like 6 or 7 years ago?

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : I have forum updated on different site. We'll see how this one goes before going to that

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Elgton Jenkins has a back injury, is expect to end contract dispute

wpr (23-Jul) : The site is much more better.

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : NFLPA report said Packers lockerroom needed upgrade. Whining bout where you change?
