I'm definitely shocked!
Gettig rid of the punter and holder at this point in time is a curious move.
Now we have a new long snapper, punter and holder in a very crucial part of the game.
And I valued Hodge more than Giaccomoni. Ted Thompson knows best.

this is flat out weird. Ryans numbers were better last year, and has proven that he can punt in bad weather.

He did have his bad games last year, but i thought he was pretty consistent as a punter.

Wow......i wonder what caused all this? The Packers must have had their eye on "Jack" Frost, and hoped to get him. He must be special.
I hate to see Ryan gone......i liked him.

I wasn't expecting this at all. Not Jon Ryan or Abdul Hodge. Strange.

I wonder if that new punter will be given the same number he wore in Washington 😉

Well in the regular season stats for last season Jon Ryan was ranked 31st and Derrick Frost was ranked 21st. I don't know if playing devil's advocate helps in this situation though. A lot of us, including me, liked Jon Ryan. Frost's net yards were 2,730 while Ryan's were 2,331.

Wow cut a cold weather punter and a up and coming tough playing linebacker....and keep "BURN ME OFTEN BUSH"? I think Ted Thompson hit the communion cup a little hard this morning.

Hodge. F**k. I stood by Ted Thompson through the whole BF thing, but this is unacceptable.

J/K. I'm still pissed though.

This sounds like a bunch of crap to me. Why did we need to make this move?

Don't tell me you couldn't get anything for Hodge, or release Bush instead. This smells really bad if you ask me.

I'm with you on that. I've been supporting Bush, but when it comes down to Bush or Hodge... c'mon now.

I'd rather keep Hodge over White, but every time I've doubted TT, he's proved me wrong (jury is still out on Harrell).

The NFL is a game of field position. I'd rather have a consistently solid punter pinning the opposition inside the 10 than one who can dazzle you with a 70 yard punt that goes into the endzone for a touchback.

I will miss Ryan on trick punts. Maybe Ruvell Martin is the new holder?

Martha Careful (21-Dec) : I think MLF want Love to look past the end half issues, and feel good about his play. Our coaches generally keep a very positive tone.

packerfanoutwest (21-Dec) : Coach Matt LaFleur has said quarterback Jordan Love is playing the best football of his career.

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Right now it looks like the only prime worthy games are Det-Minny and KC-Denver (if Denver can clinch a wild card spot)

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : The entirety of week 18 being listed as flex is weird

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Matt LaFleur today says unequivocally "Ted Thompson had nothing to do with the drafting of Jordan Love."

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Apparently, the editing is what pieces comments together. That Ted thing ... fake news.

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : LaFleur "opportunity that Ted Thompson thought was too good to pass up"

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Jordan Love pick was Ted Thompson's idea.

Mucky Tundra (18-Dec) : The real lie is how beast capitalized his name in his message while it's normally spelled with

beast (17-Dec) : Despite what lies other might tell, Beast didn't hate the Winter Warnings, it felt refreshing to Beast for some reason.

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : whiteout uniforms in general are pretty lame and weak. NFL greed at it's worst

Martha Careful (17-Dec) : The Viking uniforms, the whiteout uniforms specifically absolutely suck

beast (17-Dec) : Thanks Zero2Cool, looks a lot better now

beast (17-Dec) : Seems like someone has a crush on me, can't stop talking about me

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : Should be gooder now. The forum default theme went to goofy land.

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : What the hell

packerfanoutwest (17-Dec) : yeah beast hates the Winter Warning Unies

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Okay I'm glad to know it's not just something happening to me lol

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Zero, did you copy the Packers uniforms from last night and white out the board?

beast (16-Dec) : Oh crap, is the board going to the Winter Warning Uniforms too?!? It's all white on white right now!
