Datone Jones was fined for roughing the passer, looks like yet another dirty cheap player on the Packers roster.

They have to make up for the drop in ratings somehow.

Goodell should fuck off and die.

This shit is why I really need to start recording games again. I honestly don't remember anything notable and I can't find any video of it on the internet.

I'm just wondering when I walked back into middle school. Can't we all just pretend to get along while silently fuming?

I can't figure out what they actually fined/flagged him for. He hit Ryan in the shoulder (with his own shoulder) and it was only 1 step after Ryan threw the ball.

He was flagged for a blow to the "head or neck area." In real time and on replay, it looked like a good call to me—by the letter of the law as written in the rulebook. Whether "head or neck area" should be the standard by which these calls are made is obviously a matter for debate.

Welcome to the future NFL. It is pretty simple how to avoid fines like these - just stop blitzing and let the QB stand in the pocket all day without worries.

Seriously though - this is the crap that is ruining football. If you breathe close enough to a receiver that he smells your breath, you might as well let him catch the ball because it will be pass interference anyway. If you go for the sack as the QB is thinking of throwing the ball, automatic 15 yards. If you celebrate a good play, you just gave up 15 yards. To make it worse - If it is questionable, the coach can't even challenge it.

They better start getting pitchers to officiate soon or the refs will wear their arms out from throwing a flag on every snap.

Zero2Cool (16h) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (20h) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (20h) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (21h) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (21h) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (21h) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (21h) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (21h) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (21h) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (21h) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (21h) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (21h) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (21h) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (21h) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (21h) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (22h) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (23h) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (23h) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (23h) : 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.

Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : Did they know that at the time or was that something the realized afterwards?

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Van Ness played most of season with broken thumb

wpr (9-Apr) : yay

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Mark Murphy says Steelers likely to protect Packers game. Meaning, no Ireland

Zero2Cool (8-Apr) : Struggling to figure out what text editor options are needed and which are 'nice to have'

Mucky Tundra (8-Apr) : *CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP*

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : WR who said he'd break Xavier Worthy 40 time...and ran slower than you

Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Who?

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Texas’ WR Isaiah Bond is scheduled to visit the Bills, Browns, Chiefs, Falcons, Packers and Titans starting next week.

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Spotting ball isn't changing, only measuring distance is, Which wasn't the issue.

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : The spotting of the ball IS the issue. Not the chain gang.

Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Will there be a tracker on the ball or something?
