Copy paste... saves time.. what I left there.

As a Packer fan, I do think it is disappointing to hear this. While I am not the biggest Colledge fan, I think he should have been offered a chance to be there.

The only thing I will say, part of the reason may have been timing due to the lockout pushing the trip into the preseason and then trying to deal with other camps scheduling and so forth.

That said.. an effort could have been made to at least invite the starters for them last season.

One additional note.. maybe the Packers did try and there is more to it than what Colledge knows at the moment..

Not excusing it.. but sometimes there is more to the story.. IE Rodgers airport deal.

What if that happened? The Packers would've come off looking good, wouldn't they? It would've been a PR win, regardless.

I mean, the least they could've done was extend an invite to those former players, stating the time and place, leaving the logistics to the players themselves.

Never mind the fact that he would be re-joining a different roster after already signing a contract with an entirely different team. Am I the only one that sees the problem there?

If the trip takes place in March, like normally, this is less of an issue and Colledge is there. Some of the blame has to be shared by the NFLPA in this gripe that Colledge has.

Doesn't change the fact that the Packers should have offered and then let it become a product outside their direct control... albeit it would have placed undue blame on the Cardinal organization whom only part in it is they signed a free agent.

You know this country is starting to get filled with more and more thin skinned babies who want to cry about everything. I heard that after Obama said since he's a share holder the Packers should initiate a trade to send Rodgers down to the Bears. Apparently the following day they issued a statement that Obama likes Jay Cutler and doesn't want him traded. Seriously?

Never mind the fact that he would be re-joining a different roster after already signing a contract with an entirely different team. Am I the only one that sees the problem there?

If a player helped the Packers win the Super Bowl, my first thought, bring them along, but then adding in they signed with one of the 31 enemies, I say hell no. They LEFT the Packers so they unfortunately miss out thanks to the Lock Out (which the Players initiated). The Packers also missed out on their Friday practice to attend the White House.

I could be mistaken, it's just how I viewed it from everything I painfully read.

Muddled waters.. in short, both parties carry (in my mind) equal blame for the initiation of the Lockout.

The Owners gave too much and the Players got unreasonable. And then the Owners were greedy white bitches. Which caused Daryn Colledge to get sand in his vagina because the Packers did the right thing by not bringing players of other teams to the White House.

Different path, same result. Weeeee. Doggggie!
