Brady Quinn said something yesterday that I've often wondered myself, and posted about here. Why do people ask how you're doing, yet continue to walk past you as you answer? I awkwardly learned no one really gives a damn several years ago on a repeated basis.


It was tough. I think it was an eerie feeling after a win because you don’t think that you can win in this situation. The one thing people can hopefully try to take away, I guess, is the relationships they have with people.

I know when it happened, I was sitting and, in my head, thinking what I could have done differently. When you ask someone how they are doing, do you really mean it? When you answer someone back how you are doing, are you really telling the truth? We live in a society of social networks, with Twitter pages and Facebook, and that’s fine, but we have contact with our work associates, our family, our friends, and it seems like half the time we are more preoccupied with our phone and other things going on instead of the actual relationships that we have right in front of us. Hopefully people can learn from this and try to actually help if someone is battling something deeper on the inside than what they are revealing on a day-to-day basis.

I'll take that over "no problem" as a response to "thank you." Thank you is not an apology. No problem is a response to an apology.

Your generation can't speak English.

I spent a number of year, traveling the country and there are many places where, you would never be asked how are you doing. You would never hear, good morning or afternoon when passing somebody in the hall or sidewalk. Thankfully, there are places left in this country, where, polite greatings and acknowledgements happen between even strangers.

I find that places where these greetings, even if more out of habit than actually caring, coincide with areas where people tend to care and take interest in their neighbors. Many places I have gone people walk around in a zone, they ignore everybody around them. They can live across the hall from somebody for years, and don't know each others names and have never spoken to each other.

How you doing. Good yourself. Is a simple little courtesy. I don't want to live someplace where even that little courtesy is gone. Because with its lose, we lose much more as a society.
The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

The only people I ask "how are you" are those people that I don't actually give a damn how they are. I never ask my friends that question, because I already cared enough to know the answer.
BAD EMAIL because the address couldn ot be found, or is unable to receive mail.

I especially feel bad for your daughters. Instead of worrying about their would be suitors' morals, you'll be worrying if they'll bore your daughters to death.

Keep in mind that the generation you speak of so derogatory is the result of the piss poor generation that raised them. So, rip that generation, not the one that suffers from the lack of proper leadership from its elders.

Fan Shout
TheKanataThrilla (20m) : Looks like we signed Clayton Tune as QB3
wpr (25m) : TKT people lose their minds over QB3. Point is almost none of them are ready that's why they are on the PS and other teams don't take them.
TheKanataThrilla (1h) : Unfortunately he doesn't seem ready to be an emergency QB.
TheKanataThrilla (1h) : As a Canadian and a follower of Canadian University football. I am rooting for him
dfosterf (1h) : I bet a lot of us will follow the Taylor Elgersma journey with interest. Personally, got a Kurt Warner vibe goin' on. I like him
TheKanataThrilla (1h) : Not sure if either will be claimed though.
TheKanataThrilla (1h) : Tune or Hooker would make sense
dfosterf (1h) : Clayton Tune cut by the Cards? Don't know if that's the guy, we shall see
TheKanataThrilla (2h) : Per Bill Huber, the Packers will not be bringing back Taylor Elgersma or Sean Clifford on the practice squad, so a new third quarterback
Mucky Tundra (2h) : Schefter must have deleted his tweet
dfosterf (3h) : Hopefully Jerry reaches under the seat cushions and ashtrays of his jet and scrapes up the 45 million apr and spares us further nonsense
dfosterf (4h) : Have to admit the PO'd Cowboy fan videos would be fun to watch. Problem with draft picks is half their fanbase barely knows what that is
beast (4h) : I think Cowboys fans are ready to get their pitch forks and burning sticks if Jerry were to trade Micah
dfosterf (4h) : If Jerry traded Micah to GB, here in northern Va. they would have to quick build yet another data center to handle the internet hate traffic
Zero2Cool (4h) : its signing and trades that you don't hear about, other then announced
Zero2Cool (4h) : If you hear rumors about Packers sign or trade, won't happen. Not how they work
dfosterf (4h) : 19 players in a contract year. Jones called loss to us worst loss in Cowboy history. Forget Parsons trade. Not happenin' Cap'n
packerfanoutwest (6h) : The Packers, meanwhile, are the youngest team in the league for the third consecutive year.
dfosterf (8h) : That it was darkest before the dawn in Bengals and Commanders before they got deals done
Zero2Cool (8h) : what is Schefter saying?
dfosterf (8h) : He was getting Dorito infusion therapy
dfosterf (8h) : He's outta shape. Why, just the other day I saw him splayed out on the trainers table
Mucky Tundra (15h) : Parsons has followed Rasheed Walker on Twitter. Quite the choice
Mucky Tundra (15h) : Kuhn is a former player who works for the team, if somethings going down, he would be close to it
Mucky Tundra (15h) : @kuhnj30 Micah Freaking Parsons
Mucky Tundra (15h) : A LOT of buzz on the Bird App regarding Parsons; even Schefter is saying it's serious
dfosterf (20h) : *Orzech*
dfosterf (20h) : Orzich long snapper 3 yr extension
Zero2Cool (21h) : Packers signed someone for three year deal
Zero2Cool (21h) : lol i know it's insane ... sign up for the waiver wire then you'll know
wpr (21h) : YES!!!!!!
Mucky Tundra (22h) : WE WANT THE LIST! WE WANT THE LIST!
Zero2Cool (22h) : @JJLahey · 2m Holy crap, Packers, where the heck is the list?
Zero2Cool (22h) : haha folks on Tweeter every year this time ... 'where is list Packers!!" hahaha
wpr (23h) : He played pretty good.
Zero2Cool (23h) : NAZIR STACKHOUSE HAS MADE THE 53
Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : NOOOOO KALEN IS GONE
Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : Kalen King and Kamal Hadden making it. me thinks
schroeder84 (26-Aug) : @dfosterf I suspect Elgersma WILL be hard to hide. Raw, but talented
Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : pp.com is broken, halt testing, gotta go do work things for a bit
hardrocker950 (26-Aug) : Mecole Hardman was released, to the surprise of few
Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : PP.com updated. Reset Password works, and now User Profile pages are a thing
Zero2Cool (25-Aug) : Soft hope plan is having fantasy football weekly on-site that i build. cannot do that with this setup.
Zero2Cool (25-Aug) : It's older technology, resource hog, cannot be upgraded/changed. That's to start.
packerfanoutwest (25-Aug) : Ok, but what is wrong with this site?
Zero2Cool (25-Aug) : check out packerpeople.com
Mucky Tundra (25-Aug) : Oh crap I missed that! I thought it was a 2026 pick
Zero2Cool (25-Aug) : It wasn't even next year pick, it's two years away. old dog food value
Mucky Tundra (25-Aug) : Yep! Everytime a team trades with Howie that team is the loser (so says the media)
Zero2Cool (25-Aug) : We are hosed.
