If that's from @espn...I sure don't see it on their twitter. TV? Radio?

It's here:

http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2015/08/24/packers-plan-on-calling-reggie-wayne-after-he-visits-patriots/

This was the tweet that started it all:

Jermichael checks in with his thought:

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."

This is one of the reasons you do consider signing Reggie Wayne:

Plus, he's smart and the kind of guy Aaron can trust. With the age of our elder statesman at 25 in RC18... what a presence he would be.

Reggie was hoping to be signed by Pats this AM...well it's afternoon in New England. Hope remains.

sounds like an agent trying to get his guy more money from the team he's visiting with.

Would he rather be there for "revenge" or here? Would he rather play with Brady or Rodgers?

Funny how Reggie Wayne became so relevant so quickly. As MR pointed out...guy caught 13 for over 200 against us a few years ago. I'm sure Ted Thompson and Mike McCarthy remember.

T.Y. Hilton spoke with Reggie last night and RW told him he was definitely playing ONE more season. Has one last shot to win a SB. Who is he going to bet on? Us? or...the reigning SB champions? Does he want to be along for the ride or a major contributor?...that very well could be the deciding factor.

He chose NE.

While I rarely get too much on board with reading what a player has to say, I think Reggie Wayne is a guy you can trust to not oversell himself. I think we're going to regret not adding a veteran like him:

Will be fun to see how he does in New England... if he tears it up over there it's going to be a bitter pill to swallow if we struggle.

PS: Your comments on VanPelt didn't "sound stupid" at all, but 100% spot on! A QB knows exactly how WRs are supposed to do their job and has insight into that a WR turned WR coach might not have

beast (25m) : That way teams like Indiana and SMU don't make the conference championships by simply avoiding all the other good teams in their own confere

beast (26m) : Also, with these "Super Conferences" instead of a single conference champion, have 4 teams make a Conference playoffs.

beast (27m) : Also in college football, is a bye week a good or bad thing?

Martha Careful (4h) : The tournament format was fine. Seeding could use some work.

beast (4h) : You can't assume Ohio State would of won the Michigan game...

beast (4h) : Rankings were 1) Oregon 2) Georgia 3) Texas 4) Penn State 5) Notre Dame 6) Ohio State, none of the rest mattered

wpr (6h) : Texas, ND and OSU would have been fighting for the final 2 slots.

wpr (6h) : Oregon and Georgia were locks. Without the luxury of extra playoff berths, Ohios St would have been more focused on Michigan game.

wpr (7h) : Zero, no. If there were only 4 teams Ohio State would have been one of them. Boise St and ASU would not have been selected.

Zero2Cool (9h) : So that was 7 vs 8, that means in BCS they never would made it?

Martha Careful (10h) : A great game. Give ND credit for coming back, although I am please with the outcome.

Mucky Tundra (17h) : FG to make it academic

Mucky Tundra (17h) : and there's the dagger

Mucky Tundra (18h) : ooooo 8 point game with 4 minutes to go!

Mucky Tundra (18h) : ooooooooohhhhhh he missed!

Mucky Tundra (18h) : Ooooo that completion makes things VERY interesting

Mucky Tundra (18h) : Game not over yet

beast (19h) : Oh yeah, Georgia starting quarterback season ending elbow injury

beast (19h) : Sadly something happened to Georgia... they should be playing in this game against Ohio State

beast (19h) : I thought Ohio State and Texas were both better than Notre Dame & Penn State

Mucky Tundra (19h) : Notre Lame getting rolled

Martha Careful (20h) : Ohio State just got punched in the gut. Lets see how they respond

Mucky Tundra (20h) : Notre Lame vs the Luckeyes, bleh

Mucky Tundra (20h) : Oh snap!!!

Zero2Cool (21h) : Even Stevie Wonder can see that.

Zero2Cool (21h) : Nah, you see Lions OC leaving to be HC of Bears is directly related to Packers.

Mucky Tundra (21h) : ohhhhhhh Zero is in TROUBLE

packerfanoutwest (21h) : Zero, per your orders, check Bearshome, not packershome

Zero2Cool (23h) : Then he'll land with another team and flourish.

Zero2Cool (23h) : Ben going to Bears. He'll be out in 3 years.

Mucky Tundra (20-Jan) : what's so funny?

Zero2Cool (20-Jan) : BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Zero2Cool (20-Jan) : Bears are finalizing a deal to hire Ben Johnson as their head coach. (via @tompelissero )

Mucky Tundra (20-Jan) : Looks like Lions OC Ben Johnson is going to be the Bears coach

Mucky Tundra (20-Jan) : TD but another failed 2 pt conversion!

Mucky Tundra (20-Jan) : Ravens still alive, but barely

Mucky Tundra (19-Jan) : Or not...BUT THAT CATCH BY NACUA

Mucky Tundra (19-Jan) : WE MAY HAVE BEEN PREMATURE KANATA

TheKanataThrilla (19-Jan) : Time to make dinner

TheKanataThrilla (19-Jan) : Ouch!!!! Dagger for the Eagles

Mucky Tundra (19-Jan) : DAGGER

TheKanataThrilla (19-Jan) : pass plays

TheKanataThrilla (19-Jan) : Seems some of their passes are too deep. Reminds me of MLF as well.

Mucky Tundra (19-Jan) : Oren Burks with a clutch pass break up...I will now light myself on fire

Mucky Tundra (19-Jan) : a run on 2nd down and 17 from McVay? So that's where MLF gets it from!

Mucky Tundra (19-Jan) : Do or die time for the Rams

TheKanataThrilla (19-Jan) : Kicking field goals are impressive

Mucky Tundra (19-Jan) : Oh that might be a backbreaker

Mucky Tundra (19-Jan) : That's what I thought too, just wasn't sure

TheKanataThrilla (19-Jan) : Kicking doesn't make much sense
