On Friday, Packers coach Mike McCarthy repeatedly said called Sunday's unavailability of quarterback Aaron Rodgers an "organizational decision.' McCarthy could have used a couple of more forceful terms: "Extraordinary risk.' According to Chris Mortensen and Rob Demovsky of ESPN, a recent scan of Rodgers' fractured collarbone showed "extraordinary risk' to the quarterback, if he were...

More significantly:

According to Chris Mortensen and Rob Demovsky of ESPN, a recent scan of Rodgers’ fractured collarbone showed “extraordinary risk” to the quarterback, if he were to play.

DEMOVSKY

Even though the Green Bay Packers waited until Friday to rule out Aaron Rodgers for the seventh straight game, the star quarterback apparently wasn't as close to coming back as it may have appeared.

Rodgers' fractured left collarbone still showed "extraordinary risk" if he returned to the field on Sunday against the Pittsburgh Steelers, sources told ESPN.

Aaron Rodgers doesn't need to worry about people thinking he's a wimp. Everybody knows, it is that "organizational" asshole who vetoed his chance to play.

Are there actually some FOOLS in here who prefer to believe a couple of God damned media talking heads over McCarthy and Rodgers? Pathetic, just pathetic.

Run D, yes. But we've got a QB.

One bad hit, and he could lose not just this
season but could cost him next year.
Do I want him to play? Yes! But not if it
will destroy his future with the Packers.

Zero2Cool (7h) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (10h) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (10h) : 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 (12h) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (12h) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (12h) : 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 (14h) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (14h) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (14h) : 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?
