That is a great story.

Donald Driver is a great guy from everything I read and hear.

Teamwork is what the Green Bay Packers were all about. They didn't do it for individual glory. They did it because they loved one another. -Vince Lombardi

He is such an amazing guy. These are the people that deserve to make it. Yet, at least half the league seems to be filled with people that tend to go more the TO kind of guy.

I agree that we shouldn't keep him, only because he's nice, but this is the guy that brings something extra to a team. I hope he can just keep producing.

Oh, and this is handled great by that mom aswell, I mean, she had to go through quite a hassle aswell to get all of this to happen.

I have a feeling that after Driver retires from playing football, he'll have a job with the Packers in some form.

Anyways, nice read. Should we asphyxiate RP now?

I like reading these stories as much as the next man, but they don't sway my opinion in the least. If we decide not to trade Driver because he's a good guy who helps little kids, and not because he is no longer the best fit for our team, we don't deserve to win.

Do you think he's not a good fit for our team right now?

I think he fits just fine! He's producing well, has taken his "demotion" to our #2 WR just fine, and as this story shows, a 100% class act!

I think the Packers MGMT has shown that it's not afraid to make an "unpopular" move if they feel the player is no longer worth it. I don't mean just the BF thing, but KGB is a good example too. So i'm not sure what your reason was for bringing the negative up in this thread.
Maybe i missed something or misunderstood what you are saying.
Do you just mean "overall", or is it Driver in particular?

This was a nice feelgood story about an NFL player who is a classy guy who did something good for a little kid.
Why the negativity?

Driver should stay a Packer till he retires. He is still a great fit for the team.

I agree!
And then when his playing days are over the Packers should find a place for him in their organization.
He is a huge positive in the community.

I agree 100%.
He would be GREAT as a "good will" ambassador. His personality is wonderful! I can't help but wonder if some of why Jennings is the way he is, is because of being around Driver.
The few times i have been around Driver, he has gone out of his way to talk with us, to joke around with us, and sign autographs.
He's talented, AND classy!
One of my all time favorite Packers!

beast (1h) : Thanks dfosterf, I'm still kicking myself for last week, as I forgot to change to pick Vikings and Lions... after putting in a holding spot.

Zero2Cool (3h) : First alternate: Elgton Jenkins Other alternates: Jordan Love, Kenny Clark, Keisean Nixon, Tucker Kraft, Josh Myers, Jaire Alexander

Zero2Cool (3h) : Pro Bowl still a thing? Guess Packers have three. Jacobs, Gary, McKinney.

dfosterf (3h) : It's a mine field with all the players sitting, etc

dfosterf (3h) : There was quite a bit of "chalk" matchups this year it seemed, but not this week coming up

Zero2Cool (3h) : Or we got better and by we I mean everyone except me

Zero2Cool (3h) : We have about six that by percent would have won nearly any season. I guess 2024 was predictable 🤷

Zero2Cool (3h) : You can check previous seasons. I quick did it and don't think anyone hit 70% before

dfosterf (3h) : Hats off to the Beast

dfosterf (3h) : I'm at 71.76% in pick 'em. 2nd place. Beast is at a flat 75% 9 games ahead. That 75% has got to be unprecedented this late in the season

beast (4h) : I don't care deeply, just want some good entertaining games

Zero2Cool (4h) : BTW, not serious.

Zero2Cool (5h) : You don't care about it either!!!!

Zero2Cool (5h) : NIL and Portal killed college, no one cares about it.

Mucky Tundra (9h) : outside of Texas-Arizona St, it's been a snoozefest

beast (13h) : I expect Georgia will change that tomorrow, but we'll have to wait and see. If they do, then only Big 10 and SEC are left.

beast (13h) : So much for Conference Championship meaning something as 100% (so far) of the conference Champions lost their first playoff game.

Zero2Cool (21h) : Jaire had surgery, season over.

Mucky Tundra (21h) : I guess I need a new sig Pic. Boo

Mucky Tundra (21h) : Eric Dickerson approves of this decision

beast (23h) : Eagles are resting RB Saquon Barkley, so there is no chance he breaks the record despite being just 101 yards from it

Zero2Cool (1-Jan) : Patriots are waiving veteran pass rusher Yannick Ngakoue

beast (1-Jan) : Happy New Year's 🥳🎉

beast (31-Dec) : I want to them chant some songs for Daniel Whelan

beast (31-Dec) : Let's win one! Also, hopefully the Irish will stand with Daniel Whelan

Mucky Tundra (31-Dec) : After London and Brazil, I could go without an overseas game for a while

Zero2Cool (31-Dec) : Packers. Steelers. Ireland. 2025. Reports say.

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Matt Lafleur on if Jaire will play again this season. "Yeah I don't know... he's been dealing with swelling."

Mucky Tundra (30-Dec) : After the way they played for most of the game yesterday, I don't see how you can sit anyone for the whole game

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : I'd say play everyone. Going into playoffs at 7th seed on two game lose streak - yucky

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Do the Packers have any best players?

beast (30-Dec) : Play or Rest*

beast (30-Dec) : Should the Packers play or free their best players vs the Bears?

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Packers should be 3 - 2 in the Division. Bonkers being swept by both Lions and Vikings. yikes

go.pack.go. (30-Dec) : All crazy stuff…and good point beast

beast (30-Dec) : Packers should be 0-5 in the division, can't say I saw that coming, even 1-4

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Sam Darnold 35 TD's ... another one

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Baker Mayfield, 39 TD's ... can't say I saw that one

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : No matter who is playing as 7th, I think we want them to win. Get rid of 2nd seed haha

go.pack.go. (30-Dec) : That would be dhazer who was rooting for Minnesota

beast (30-Dec) : Well, Commanders are currently the 6th seed and Packers the 7th

beast (30-Dec) : Who was it in Chat, that wanted the Vikings to win (because Lions fans upset them) because Packers could not lose the 6th seed?

beast (30-Dec) : If Falcons win, Packers stay as the 6th seed and Falcons lead the NFCS, if they lose, Commanders 6th and Bucs take NFCS lead

beast (30-Dec) : Win or Loss, the NFCS is going down to week 18

Mucky Tundra (30-Dec) : if the Falcons win, how does that affect the overall NFC playoff picture? Does it mean that the NFC South comes down to week 18?

beast (30-Dec) : If Commanders win, the Packers drop to the 7th seed

beast (29-Dec) : Taylor still at it!

beast (29-Dec) : Colts get the ball and fumble turn over

packerfanoutwest (29-Dec) : Jets pull Aaron Rodgers for Tyrod Taylor

Mucky Tundra (29-Dec) : Colts-Giants now a tight one
