With the picture of last Super Bowl ring. I still can't believe Wells is being such a numbnutted jack/dumbass.

He is looking around. If he doesn't get the big money he is hoping for he will come back and see if GB still wants him.

But I digress. Carry on... :-"

Because we all know that without the extra few million he will make by going elsewhere, he and his children would have ended up in the poorhouse.

I am not disagreeing with you. I am saying I don't know if I could maintain my motivation playing on a consistently shitty team, even if I made more money.

I made more money in the army than I ever have since I got out -- or ever could for the work I was doing -- but that wasn't enough to keep me motivated. I went home depressed every night, sometimes almost to the point of tears. Sure, the $30,000 or so ($60,000 between my wife and me when I was deployed) I made was nothing compared to the millions these guys make, but I had everything I needed or wanted. The rest of that cash would just be imaginary zeros in my bank account.

    Zero2Cool (7h) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying
    dfosterf (11h) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount
    dfosterf (11h) : Trade, cut or keep
    dfosterf (12h) : that from Jaire
    dfosterf (12h) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'
    Zero2Cool (12h) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"
    dfosterf (12h) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it
    Zero2Cool (12h) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.
    dfosterf (12h) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent
    dfosterf (12h) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility
    dfosterf (12h) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission
    dfosterf (12h) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers
    Zero2Cool (13h) : That someone ... likely the agent.
    Zero2Cool (13h) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.
    Zero2Cool (13h) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.
    Zero2Cool (13h) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.
    dfosterf (15h) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"
    dfosterf (15h) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that
    dfosterf (15h) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?
    Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent
    Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?
    Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024
    Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.
    dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move
    dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish
    Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need
    dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.
    dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.
    Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.
    dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation
    Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what
    Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife
    Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately
    Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.
    dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.
    Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not
    Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.
    Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?
    Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : Did they know that at the time or was that something the realized afterwards?
    Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Van Ness played most of season with broken thumb
    wpr (9-Apr) : yay
    Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Mark Murphy says Steelers likely to protect Packers game. Meaning, no Ireland
    Zero2Cool (8-Apr) : Struggling to figure out what text editor options are needed and which are 'nice to have'
    Mucky Tundra (8-Apr) : *CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP*
    Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : WR who said he'd break Xavier Worthy 40 time...and ran slower than you
    Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Who?
    Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Texas’ WR Isaiah Bond is scheduled to visit the Bills, Browns, Chiefs, Falcons, Packers and Titans starting next week.
    Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Spotting ball isn't changing, only measuring distance is, Which wasn't the issue.
    Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : The spotting of the ball IS the issue. Not the chain gang.
    Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Will there be a tracker on the ball or something?
