McCarthy calls Suh step on Rodgers "ridiculous'· Page 3

Face mask and extracurriculars aside, why are ball carriers still allowed to throw punches to the face when no other player (offensive or defensive) is allowed to?

Exactly. If you really aren't acting dirty, then when someone slaps you, you're going to turn around and say "what the heck was that for?" But he was being dirty so he knew exactly what the slap was for, so he didn't turn around.

What is sad is that if Suh and Bush are suspended it actually hurts us more than it helps us.

Lang was the only one to step up to that piece of shit.
Disappointing.

I would've loved to have had a situation where we could take a shot with a scrub backup that we don't need in a spot where a penalty doesn't matter. That spot never really presented itself.

I will whine some more about how dirty the lions were. It seemed to me they were intentionally attempting to helmet-spear on players on the ground multiple times. Look at the replay of the Lacy-non fumble for one.

Where does this overall scumbagness come from for the Lions? I guess it is just a consequence of living in Detroit.

The bottom line is that we didn't let his petulance distract us from seeing out the game. We didn't get ourselves any stupid penalties in response. We won. That hurts him more than any jawing ever could.

I saw that during the game and wondered why there was no call. Quick to throw a flag due to a hand grazing a helmet - but let Bush go WWE on a defender out of bounds. Pretty obvious which players the league is looking out for as usual. [puke]

I wonder if the NFL will turn their heads and ignore this play?

Suspended 1 game.

Not enough.

Zero2Cool (17h) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (21h) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (21h) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (22h) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (22h) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (22h) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (22h) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (22h) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (22h) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (22h) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (22h) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (22h) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (23h) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (23h) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (23h) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (23h) : 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?

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?
