It's an opinion piece.
Of course we see many Packers as better then alot of guys on the list. But it's not a big deal, really.

He's not even valuable with his guards. Without them the Giants might as well throw me back there at quarterback.

Jennings said today on ESPN first take that he knows of ZERO Packers players that voted for this list, and a few weeks ago Eric Winston(tackle for the Texans) said he knew of ZERO Texans players that voted for this list. I'm really starting to think the whole list is fraudulent, designed to create ratings for NFLN.

I mean.. if you want to exclude two entire teams from the voting.. well that seems pathetic.

The list.. like most other all star teams or whatnot is nothing more than a popularity contest.. fan voted teams/lists are no different.. see the pro bowl.. alot of times guys that earned the right that year based on performance don't make it.. just another bias filled talking point to generate discuss and more importantly attention. ESPN masters the art of stirring the pot.. others follow.

Example.. Ray Lewis is a HOF player.. a great player when he was in his prime.. that prime has long past.. he still is productive, but there is no way he belong on the list let alone the top 5. Just the truth.. he isn't the impact player on the field he once was.. not even close.

I do think the list was far from perfect, but I found it interesting, well presented, and probably better than what a group of talking heads would put together.

I thought and still think opinion polls are a waste of time. Media hype can sway opinion greatly.

It doesn't matter who is getting surveyed. It is still an opinion. People thinking Hester is a more valuable player than Jennings doesn't make it true or even relevent.

If you want to know who is better, quantify it. Do the calculationa and show your work.

Then you get no stupid arguments like, That proves it, Reed is better than Polamalu.

Your only argument is about an INT should be a -3 not a -4. Or you can't credit the QB with YAC.

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

dfosterf (20h) : Probably a homer access credential intimidation kinda thing

dfosterf (20h) : Meathead "journalists" skip this, concentrating on operational revenue when convenient. They switch when net revenue is more favorable.

dfosterf (20h) : Resulting in an actual drop of net revenue of 12.5%. She is from Minnesota. Just sayin'

dfosterf (20h) : Any plans to hold Maureen Smith (CFO) accountable for a 95% drop in investment revenue?

Mucky Tundra (21h) : In your face, HBO!

dfosterf (21h) : *cafeteria* I have hit my head also, so I sympathize

dfosterf (21h) : Possibly hit his head leaning into the glass protecting the food in the cafateria

dfosterf (21h) : Maybe a low flying drone

dfosterf (21h) : Did Savion Williams run into a goalpost or something?

Mucky Tundra (21h) : also, no bueno when a guy starts getting concussions right off the bat in his career

Zero2Cool (22h) : Concussion is worse. Banks probably vet off day via back booboo claim

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : @AndyHermanNFL Jordy Nelson out at camp today. No word if he’s in play for one of the two open roster spots ; )

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Is that better or worse than Banks bad back?

Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : 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

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?
