How would you measure the effectiveness of an NFL general manager such as the Green Bay Packers' Ted Thompson? Well, the best way is by the number of Super Bowls he has won … that's one way. But as a team's highest manager of personnel, the general manager could also be judged by the number

I don't think there's any question he's done great things in Green Bay, especially considering how bare the cupboards were when he took over. But the kool aid drinking really need to stop thinking the man is infallible. They seem to do this with successful players as well.

No one thought the Packers would even give Seattle much of a game with one-legged Rodgers, I like everyone else was disappointed they choked but the season overall was a success.
