There is ONE job better than Ted's. That job currently belongs to ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡ท .

As for the comments about winning, agreed.

As he said, he'll stay as long as he's having fun. Much of that depends on how long Aaron can play at a high level and the ability to replace him when he's finished. Ted Thompson does a good jobs building a team so he can build a good team around a good QB. That means they'll win and be contenders in the playoffs. Winning is fun. So, to my way of thinking, in this regard, QB is the key. Good QBs for a long time, Ted Thompson is here a long time.

Obviously, he'll have to win a few more super bowls to win over the idiots that view Terry Bradshaw as a great quarterback, but Aaron definitely has the team in place to accomplish that.

Which brings me back to the topic, I hope ๐Ÿ‡น๐Ÿ‡น stays for a long time and keeps our cupboards stocked. Sherman was a good person and decent coach, but he was in way over his head as a GM, which is what ๐Ÿ‡น๐Ÿ‡น excels at.

Ted's next gig will be the GM and a minority owner of The Silver and Black.

That is a possibility. But why would he do that when GB could make him a majority owner if they wanted to. LOL

Ted is a junkie.. he is not in it as a profession.. to me he is in it because he breathes it like oxygen.

He has just moved several of the scouts into Green Bay so they can be around more when not on the road.

John Dorsey , whose 22 years of scouting work in the National Football League is one more than Thompson, is currently the man in charge.

After Dorsey is Eliot Wolf, promoted to the new post of director of pro personnel; Brian Gutekunst, promoted from Southeast college scout to succeed Dorsey as director of college scouting; and senior personnel executive Alonzo Highsmith, the former Southwest college scout whose job description sounds similar to Schneider's.

Now that Gutekunst has moved his family from North Carolina and Highsmith has moved his from Texas, Thompson will have his four top scouts all living in Green Bay.

"We like having all those guys around the team as much as we can," said Thompson. "Because Reggie was really good at that. That was one of his strengths, being around the team and being sort of a calming thing."

The 15-man department is one more than Thompson has had in recent years.



That is a commitment to both those scouts to have them trek cross country to Green Bay.. to be more directly involved with Dorsey and Ted.

Much like his roster on the field, Ted is also developing front office personnel. Schneider.. MacKenzie.. and Dorsey is the next grooming candidate. This upcoming fall when everyone is on the road.. Wolf will man the scouting department in GB.

I see Ted digging in like a tick for a haul.. so no, I don't see him retiring anytime soon. May he possibly be looking for a new challenge.. possibly, but as a GM here with our structure, he has more say than in a traditional owner setup.

saw several shots of Uncle Teddy during the game today. He looks terrible. He looks like he has cancer. Skinny legs and arms. His eyes look sunk in. He doesn't look strong at all. during the game they showed him doing stretches makes me think his legs cramp on him.

I hope not.
