Does Sharper know the coaches in Green Bay all that well, or the players? It seems to me that the roster has changed quite a bit from the last time he was on the squad.

I don't think any of the defensive coaches have coached for the Vikings or Saints.

And it was before the 2005 draft so the players  that were here when he was cut and are still here are Driver, Clifton and Wells.

Sharper also knows Ted Thompson, of course, but not in a good way. He was not happy when Thompson released him.

There is not a chance that Sharper returns to GB. Not a matter of fans liking or disliking him. He is done.

I think all of you that have suggested, are in favor, or even entertaining the thought of Darren Sharper returning to Green Bay need to come up here to Paradise so I can beat the stupidity out of you. I'm sorry to offend anybody but Christ that is the most retarded suggestion I've heard in years and there have been some doozies. We have a team full of yoiung fire pissers and some of you want to bring back the Matador, who did nothing but cause dissention in Green Bay's locker room for years. The only thing he does well is jump passing lanes on a loaded defense. He's a total liability in coverage and tackling ability.

It's Peprah and Burnett and maybe a veteran signing other than Darlene Sharpier to back things up.

Another? How many do we have now, and what are their names?

My point wasn't that there are such players on our roster (though Barnett might have fit that role when he was in Green Bay). I was just saying that there are plenty of those players in the league right now and we don't need another one, certainly not on this roster.

By the way, a bunch of commenters have taken Jason LaCanfora to task for his sloppy research. He wrote that Sharper knows the players and coaches, when in fact there are only two or three players and no coaches from that era remaining on this roster.

Someone also pointed out (albeit erroneously -- Ahman Green was 32) that Ted Thompson has not brought in any free agents over the age of 31 during his tenure in Green Bay, to which another commenter replied that he brought in Andre Rison. [roflmao] [happy]
