I could not really give a hill of beans who wins the Pro Bowl, but one thing I wish and hope for is that Green Bay's contingent has been doing their job in Hawaii OFF THE FEILD....... Selling Green Bay Of Course.

My friend Hazer, would probably say it would be a waste of time and effort for Collins, Harris, and Woodson, but I hope they are doing a great JOB SELLING PLAYING IN GREEN BAY. It would make Ted's job a little easier.

However, I think it goes beyond that. any time you get that many leaders and pro bowlers in that atmosphere, I would hope that it would be a priority for Harris, Chuck, and Collins to sell Green Bay. To take away the myth that Green bay might as well be Greenland on the world map of the NFL.

There are 11 free agents in Hawaii I believe. Yes some may be tagged, but still.... Sell Green Bay.

I wonder if the Packers as an organization mentioned this to them. Asked them to bring the Positives Of Green Bay To Hawaii?

What do you think? Did They?

I hope so....

And is Woodson still at the Pro Bowl even though he's not playing in it?

Not sure, I would hope so.... but players still talk to players. As a Pro Bowler... His word has weight and validity.

I'd think they'd do their best to sell GB. I mean, it's in their own best interests, too. They want to win, so try and convince other great players to come in and help them win.

I don't think the players get to go to the pro-bowl unless they are playing in the game, which Woodson isn't. (unless maybe they pay their own way of course)

I think it would be hard for the Packers defensive players to sell it too much because they don't know most of their coaches or the system yet, other than maybe talk to some guys that had these coaches in the past. (Like Peppers and the DL coach and the Steelers DBs and the DB coach, and anybody that has worked for/under Capers)

But they could sell GB the city and MM. But something tell me they don't like the cold, and somehow that's gonna be bought up..... anyways I hope they sell it too.... I think Woodson would of done the best job if he went because he went to GB as a FA and found out it's a lot better than what people say it is.

Really....

On average how many REALLY COLD Games a year do the Packers have to play in in Green Bay? Three... Perhaps Four? How does that compare to Buffalo, Chicago, New England, Denver, KC.

Is it that much more of a difference?

Right.

Good point that I did not even think of.

wpr (19-Apr) : 5 days
beast (18-Apr) : 6 days
wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep
dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire
dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.
dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission
dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"
dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that
dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.
dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move
dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what
Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife
Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately
Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.
dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.
Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not
Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.
