The rationalizations are amazing. Yes, the Packers are in the middle of the pack, as far as injuries go, THIS year. Yes, ACLs are now "commonplace."

What do either of those have to do with the fact that this team is decimated year after year after year? We field a JV team every year in the playoffs, then bitch that Kaepernick "runs wild."

And now again it is a new year, and perhaps if we make it to the postseason and meet them again, we'll see if any of the changes in packages and personnel pay off.

Circular Arguments: They are a heck of an annoyance

Seems like those injuries were the difference between winning and losing in the playoffs.

In 2011 they were much healthier than in 2010. It wasn't the injuries, it was 8 dropped passes and 3 turnovers that knocked them out of the playoffs.

I want to go out like my Grandpa did. Peacefully in his sleep.
Not screaming in terror like his passengers.

These JV playoff appearances are wasting the great Aaron's career.

My point is, there are a lot more variables that go into winning then just injuries.

you bring up 2008 in 2014, why?????

The Packers were 6-10 in 2008 and you are blaming it on injuries?????

Fucking move on, that is my point.

THIS IS 2014, NOT 2008, NOT 2009, NOT 2010, NOT 2011, NOT 2012, NOT 2013!!!!!

Try enjoying the damn game, no matter who is playing!!!

I'm betting Aaron Rodgers doesn't lose any sleep over what happened in 2008, and I'm also betting whether he leads The Packers to another Super Bowl or not, when he retires, he will be labeled as one of the best to play the game in Green Bay.

Damn, figure it out, they are doing everything they can, you say you are a damn doctor of some sort, get the hell up there and tell them what they are doing wrong.

No injuries aren't good, but they are not the only thing that determines whether a team wins or losses.

You are going to be in f*cking heaven this year, because with the new rules, The packers better be able to put up 30+ points a game, that is just the way The NFL wants it.

You will call it stat-whoring,

The normal fan will realize that is what The NFL has become.

As far as the scoring goes the NFL says this is what the fans want (and most of them probably do) but all you ever hear is bitching and complaining when they change rules to make scoring easier. You never see a post stating "yippee, the new rules will make it easier for the offense to score" (probably because nobody ever bothers to type out "yippee" but you get my point)

Some people just don't like change but after the first year its not new anymore and they forget all about it. They simply don't like their game being messed with, especially those hung up on stats. I'm guessing very few people genuinely miss the good old days. The new game is just fine once they get over their initial resistance but just don't screw with it again, which we all know they will.

Zero2Cool (54m) : Sounds like Walker and Wyatt will be with Packers for beyond 2026

Zero2Cool (54m) : It's so awesome.

Zero2Cool (54m) : new site fan shout post fast

wpr (4h) : Slow posting in Fan shout.

wpr (4h) : Only 4

Zero2Cool (6h) : If only we had a topic to read about and discuss it. That's something new website must have!!!

dfosterf (7h) : Justice Musqueda over at Acme Packing put up an excellent synopsis of the Packers 1st round options this am

wpr (19-Apr) : 5 days

beast (18-Apr) : 6 days

wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (16-Apr) : 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?
