I actually saw it last night or early this morning when I typed it but I was so tired it didn't fully register.
Stupid spell check doesn't work when you stick hyphens in between the letters. That's worthless.

Isn't there a rule against pointing out other peoples misspellings?😆

Just Kidding... though the rules here have seemed to be a lot more reasonable than most/all other sites.

We shit ourselves v Seattle. That doesn't mean we're not as good as they are.

And the D is an experiment. It's a new theory based upon the rule changes to emphasize passing offense and increase big plays and scoring. I've personally bitched about Capers and his lack of innovation for a long time, so I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt here. You have to admit they're playing better.

This is not an elite team. Circumstances may have put them in that conversation due to losses by other teams, but let's not delude ourselves.

Did we all see that Seattle game?

Detroit?

MAYBE we get hot at the end a get a shot. We won a Superbowl that way, so let's see.

Conversely, do not be at all surprised if we get our clocks cleaned in New Orleans this Sunday. Odds are, we do.

Our defense is extremely suspect, imo, for example.

I think we overreact too much week to week. Good teams lose to lesser teams all the time. It happens every week in the NFL. Seattle lost to the Rams for fuck's sake.

I will only speak for myself. Of course I over-react. It is not my fault. These dumb-asses running MY team have NO fucking clue with what to do in a certain time and circumstance in a football game, yet remain so highly paid and admired.

I should be running this franchise. Everyone gets minimum wage for this game. 😆 I think I'm funny, not as funny as anyone that bought that concept that the pack was staking a claim amongst the NFL elite.

We do have homers here.

It's hard to read TOO much into the game. It seemed that once Aaron Rodgers got injured, the entire game changed. The Green Bay Packers by and large are Aaron Rodgers. If something is wrong with him, this team is rarely going to win, especially against a top quarterback. This defense is not going to carry the Packers and haven't since 2010, really. An exception here and there doesn't change the overall trend, either. Dom Capers just can't stack up against good quarterbacks. Not many can, but he certainly cannot.

Giving the Saints short field twice didn't help matters either. I am not blasting the calls because I liked the guts it took. Sometimes that works, sometimes it doesn't. If they had worked, the same folks bashing McCarthy would be praising his brilliance.

No big disappointment though. We all knew we were the better team, but we also all knew we'd go down there and shit ourselves. Set your watch by it.

However, what you said about tackling was spot on. Yesterday was not a banner day for Davon House or HaHa.

Zero2Cool (10h) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (14h) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (14h) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (15h) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (15h) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (15h) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (15h) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

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

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

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

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

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

Zero2Cool (16h) : That someone ... likely the agent.

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

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

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

dfosterf (18h) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (18h) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (18h) : 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?
