Your argument as always is weak.

What you documented is what YOU HOPE HAPPENS.

You've spun this silly bullshit that only you and a few others care what happens with The Packers.

You're whole stupid argument is based on The Packers failing.

They succeed and as always, Ted Thompson, the guy you despise, makes you look the fool.

SO HERE'S TO TED MAKING YOU LOOK THE FOOL!

I think that was when I just started blocking him.

It is not about the talent anymore. The talent is there. Now it is about needing your superstar quarterback to play like an above average quarterback against tough defenses and your coach not to go into bitch mode.

However, I do not consider Hawk to be as awful as most of you do.

The Packers organization could load this team up more by making some trades or signing free agents in the off season, but they refuse. It was the same thing in Favre's day. Lunacy is continuing to make the same mistakes hoping for a different result.

I'm not anti trade or anti FA, I've mentoned Gresham numerous times...but explain how you make that happen. The Panthers won't give us Kuechly for some free tickets to family night 2016. J.J Watt isn't signing for $7.50 an hour and the left over fries at 10 PM closing time.

If you think Ted is a moron, awesome, express that opinion, it adds to the board. But explain how he should do something else. Some magic wand and fairy dust isn't something anybody can debate.

Ted drafts largely for BPA and doesn't waste money on high priced FAs.

If that's what you want your GM to do, look no further than Mike Sherman.

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."

Hey, you were the big AJ Hawk cheerleader on this website last year. Where is he now?

I look the fool? How? I'm not the one rolling into a season with Richard Rodgers and a soon to be suspended Quarless at TE. Even the Ted Thompson fond Michael Rodney is a little concerned about our TE position. Go read his NE game review.

How can I look the fool, Buck when I rail on us not winning championships and wasting Rodgers career? How? Did we win something last year I'm not aware of or the last several?

Succeed? Not winning a championship is succeeding? GOOD IS THE ENEMY OF GREAT. You are the poster boy for that quote. Celebrate GOOD! Celebrate it! I don't look the fool. That mirror is reserved by someone else.

Buck, I'd put you on ignore but I'm not sure there's a difference between that an your actual posts. 😁

Although I generally side with BPA, you don't spend a 1st round on, say, a center 3 straight years if one happens to fall where you're drafting.

He still goes bpa, Hundley was.

dfosterf (10h) : Meathead "journalists" skip this, concentrating on operational revenue when convenient. They switch when net revenue is more favorable.

dfosterf (10h) : Resulting in an actual drop of net revenue of 12.5%. She is from Minnesota. Just sayin'

dfosterf (11h) : Did Savion Williams run into a goalpost or something?

Mucky Tundra (12h) : also, no bueno when a guy starts getting concussions right off the bat in his career

Zero2Cool (12h) : Concussion is worse. Banks probably vet off day via back booboo claim

Mucky Tundra (14h) : @AndyHermanNFL Jordy Nelson out at camp today. No word if he’s in play for one of the two open roster spots ; )

dfosterf (15h) : Is that better or worse than Banks bad back?

Zero2Cool (15h) : Savion concussion ... not good.

packerfanoutwest (24-Jul) : Aaron Rodgers’s first pass of first team period was picked off

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : tbh I didn't hear of his passing

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Cosby Show. Malcom Jamal Warner I think is real name

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : I was thinking of Ozzy and Hulk

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : Who's Theo?

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : How is Theo alliteration?

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : Bad week for people whose names are alliterations

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Hulk Hogan gone too.

dfosterf (24-Jul) : Ya Flaccp on Browns

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Maybe Tyrod Taylor instead

dfosterf (23-Jul) : 2nd issue. Number 1 issue was no gameday childcare. 1 of 3 teams not providing it

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Suppose if locker room is main issue, we sitting pretty

wpr (23-Jul) : I thought so Mucky. In those useless player polls GB always rates high overall. Locker is a part of it.
