Let yourself get manipulated by his blatant lie. I already explained in detail his motivation for saying he would have given the Packers a hometown discount, etc. If you want to believe him, that's your loss and I appreciate your gullibility. (not an insult, it just means you're trusting, which is a good thing). If you followed the whole thing from the start, you'd understand, but you're just reading articles in hindsight. Again, believe as you wish, as that is your right. I'm done trying to help you understand.

Wow. I did follow the whole thing from the start. This has nothing to do with gullibility. You cannot provide anything to support your position, because it didn't happen.

neener neeener...[neener]

Ugh ... I have provided it, several times. And clearly, you didn't follow it from the start, and that's okay. You have your opinion and that's awesome you share it with us. I like that.

I believe we landed on the moon, but I can't provide anything to support my position so I guess that probably is false?



I do think free agency has it's place on helping complete a team, just not building a team. I don't know if I worded that intelligently or not. I think you build your core via draft and develop and when you recognize a hole in your team, if you have a drafted player to fill it, great, if not, you find a free agent to do so ... if one can be found. The only player that I can recall me saying "dammit Ted, overpay a little to get him" was Chris Canty when they just switched from 4 - 3 to 3 - 4.

I don't think the Packers are one player away and I haven't seen that player in Free Agency. I do find myself intrigued by Eric Winston, the RT. I guess I am kinda nervous about Derek Sherrod and Bryan Bulaga coming back 100%. I'd rather have the RT solidified with Winston and bank on one of them two holding down LT, with Marshall Newhouse as backup. I would say this line of my thinking is probably a little bit "Madden" ish, lol.

Well I did a search and this was all I could find:

"I think we need to shut the fuck up about replacing Cullen Jenkins already. MOVE ON! He has.

The Packers need to find pass rush threat opposite Clay Matthews III, be it a DE or OLB. That's what the Packers need! " - Z2C

I do agree with your take on FA. Completely. FA does have its place. I just wish Ted would find it again.

Whew! I thought the search was broken, but you just chose the least relevant comment of mine. Which is difficult, because, trust me, I have a lot of irrelevant comments! haha


Anyhow, this is reminding me of my ex who always had to have the last word, so there you go, you have it. Quit roping me into it, damn you.


I'll try once more to get the discussion back on to free agency ... I think the Packers approach it wisely and I'm glad they have a general manager who doesn't foolishly draft draft picks away and sign free agents to big contracts that strap the Packers hands when their own core players need signed.

At about 1/3 of the cost... Hell yeah it's less risk.

Did you have a habit of bringing up old arguments a year after the fact? 😛

This doesn't even make sense. I didn't bring it up, play2win did.

From a performance standpoint? We're not in this to win the Lowest Dead Money On the Cap Trophy...

With some of the signings ... I think at times they are. Young and Cheap, just like how I like my... nevermind, different topic.
