Dear Nick,
CC is a Hall of Famer.
But he's still a Grade A asshole, IMO.
Yrs,
Wade
(and yes, I know there are lots of assholes in the Hall of Fame. It's not an award for character, after all.)

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.
Romans 12:2 (NKJV)

8 seasons 1000+ yards receiving
130 career touchdowns

James Lofton
8-time Pro Bowler & 1-time First-Team All-Pro

75 career touchdowns

I miss those hands and that attitude on the Vikes.

I think the years Cris wasn't dominant are probably why he isn't in already. But his production during his dominant years should be more than enough to put him in there.

Largent was an All-Pro once. He NEVER led the NFL in receptions or receiving TDs. He did lead the NFL in receiving yards twice.

Now, Carter was an All-Pro twice. 3 times he led the NFL in receiving TDs. Once with receptions. He's got more receiving yards in his career than either Largent or Monk. He's even got more receptions and receiving TDs than either Monk or Largent.

How can one honestly say Carter wasn't more dominant than Monk or Largent?

VR - Lofton was one of the greatest deep threats of all-time. He excelled on horrible teams. His yards per catch are off the charts and when he retired, he was #1 all time in receiving yards.

Personally he will get in.. it will just take time much like Art Monk.

IMO.. I think in many ways Carter was under-rated for what he brought to a team by the national press. Speaks volumes that Randy Moss, one whom doesn't seem to respect many, still has "ears" for Carter.

dfosterf (34m) : Feelin' pfowish can't find the sun. No big deal, will drag a laptop out when the time comes

Zero2Cool (50m) : if you're on mobile, open the menu and its the "sun" icon

dfosterf (51m) : Can't find the toggle, lol

dfosterf (52m) : I can find that the Microsoft lady rep for Titletown Tech is the philanthropy boss for the entire Microsoft corporation, but. .

Zero2Cool (57m) : There's a toggle for light/dark theme. Super easy.

dfosterf (1h) : The white background beta was hard to read, especially the quotes

dfosterf (1h) : Hopefully the color scheme remains the same

dfosterf (1h) : *Friday*

dfosterf (1h) : 100 million would be 539 million as of Fridsy

dfosterf (1h) : Heck, they could have taken a hundred milliion and invested in DAVE inc. last year (semi random, humor, but real)

dfosterf (2h) : Beer brat and ticket is where the money comes from

dfosterf (2h) : The 40th is Titletown Tech itself. This is a pet project of both Ed Policy and Mark Murphy

Zero2Cool (2h) : New site coming along nicely. The editor is better than what we have here. Oh yeah!

dfosterf (2h) : No profit that I know of. 0 for 40

dfosterf (2h) : The woke reference has to do with the makeup and oftentimes objectives of the companies they invested in

packerfanoutwest (2h) : beer and brats woke? say whom?

beast (2h) : I don't want to get into politics, but how is, beers and brats considered to be "woke"? Food is food...

beast (2h) : That being said, I'm not saying all 100% should be that way, but not surprised if majority are Wisconsin based

beast (2h) : And if everyone has heard of them, then it it probably has less growth potential and less community based

beast (2h) : Well isn't the investing person supposed to invest the money?

dfosterf (2h) : I swear if I were to discover that one of them has invented a virtue signalling transmitter I will not be surprised, lol

dfosterf (3h) : 39 companies so far that I bet no one has ever heard of.

dfosterf (3h) : -Not saying woke, but should- borderline philanthopist venture capital excercise

dfosterf (3h) : Well for one, they are pouring resources into Title Town Tech. Investing beer, brat, hot dog, ticket money into what is pretty much...

beast (9h) : Wow, 95% drop in investment revenue? Would be interesting to hear the details of why...

dfosterf (25-Jul) : It's my one day deal complaint dept. on shareholder meeting day

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Probably a homer access credential intimidation kinda thing

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Meathead "journalists" skip this, concentrating on operational revenue when convenient. They switch when net revenue is more favorable.

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Resulting in an actual drop of net revenue of 12.5%. She is from Minnesota. Just sayin'

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Any plans to hold Maureen Smith (CFO) accountable for a 95% drop in investment revenue?

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : In your face, HBO!

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : @ByRyanWood Mark Murphy: “A great source of pride of mine is that we were never on Hard Knocks.”

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : *years

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : @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 (25-Jul) : *cafeteria* I have hit my head also, so I sympathize

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Possibly hit his head leaning into the glass protecting the food in the cafateria

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Maybe a low flying drone

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Did Savion Williams run into a goalpost or something?

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : also, no bueno when a guy starts getting concussions right off the bat in his career

Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : 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?
