Fair enough, when is the last time you exited and then came back on? Mind you, exit means logging off. ;-)[grin1]

This is the backbone of my contention that he should be retained.. we have not been failures.. hell.. if the standard is only one.. then Wolf failed as well. We could of pulled the plug with the yearly exits to the Pokes.. but we didn't. And the rest is history.

okay, I am sorry, I just can't take this questioning of whether Ted Thompson deserves an extension seriously. I just can't. You compare the Packers with any other team and the Packers have a proven method.

The 49ers and Seahawks were built by top of the round picks earned by their predecessors and their respective new regime reaped the benefits. The only team that's had a more impressive streak is the Patriots. Who dip their feet into free agency more than the Packers ... which I think they do it wisely with more reward than risk moves.

I would love the Packers to be more active in FA, but fact is, there just isn't anyone out there over the years that's worth the money they get. Speaking relatively of course, since I feel most NFL players are grossly overpaid. And rarely does a FA pickup make a vast improvement. You can argue the Packers had the biggest FA impact over the last decade with Charles Woodson. Who pulled the trigger there? Ted flipping Thompson.

This thread illustrates:
(a) some people have too much time on their hands.
(b) how it would be interesting to know how much people have been drinking while perusing this thread and commenting thereon.
(c) both (a) and (b)
(d) why the eff do I have this stupid list of ticket links at the top of every page that I have to scroll past to get to the discussion.

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

First off, lets get this straight right out of the gate. I quoted dfosterf, not uffda in that comment and it was quite clear to me I was poking fun at him with being so over the top and out of character. I am the last person to question someones fanhood with any ounce of seriousness. Apparently though, it was NOT as clear as I thought and for that, I apologize to whomever could have been offended.

That being said, I firmly believe both dfosterf and uffda are loyal passionate fans and have probably been fans of the Green Bay Packers longer than I've been breathing the same air as them. And I do respect that.

But, life is short and if we don't and can't have a little fun from time to time, what is the point of anything at all?

Thank you for helping me clear this up for anyone who could have been confused.

No harm done. As you know it isn't always easy to read intent on line.

As far as Uffda being a plant as Pack93z suggested that is a conspiracy theory I could get behind. Do you get a bonus zero if a thread goes over so many posts?

Mucky Tundra (23-Aug) : Matthew Golden=DAWG (so load the wagons!!) !!!!!
