I'm over the loss for the most part, we got destroyed...plain and simple. However, one thing buried in that loss has me questioning WTF?
We are down 21 points, under 5 minutes to go in the 4th quarter,and have the ball where is Donald Driver?
Double D should have been in the game finishing out his Packer career with class. Did I miss him out there? I don't think so. How awesome would that have been if DD would have caught that last TD pass?

THIS IS A FUCKING BUSINESS!!!
To hell With Driver!!! His ass needs to go.

One thing that I find curious is how quick he was activated once he volunteered to play on special teams.
The coaches didn't want to ask him, thought it wouldn't be right to ask a Vet like DD to play Sp. teams, so he volunteered, and amazingly after a short week of practice he showed he could contribute and he was activated instead of ????? whoever.
hmmmmm....just wondering about next year, DD shows up and just like a rookie or street FA, contends for a roster spot as a menmber of the Sp teams unit.
Now it comes down to final cuts, and the coaches have to decide who to keep, a Rookie FA, or a 16 yr Vet who could, if needed , step right into the starting lineup at any point of the game.
I know what my decision would be.
Down deep, I know DD is probably done in Green Bay, but just keep asking myself, what difference it would have made if The Packers didn't make the decision to put Ross in to return punts instead of Cobb?
There's a reason a very few rookies make a splash in The NFL, it's called inexperience!!!
Time to move on, wait till next year, and see what happens, if DD returns it will be fun reading some of the posts as our online GM's go beserk week after week.
I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!
