Winning is nice. Looking like a team that can win it all is preferred. Being critical in winning is necessary to become better and a team that can win it all.

You basically acted like this kid after the Packers lucky beat the Bears

That's your perception as a person who looks only at what is right in front of you. My weakness is I get annoyed by the small thinking homer that gets lathered by beating a team that the Packers should beat

There's irony in you telling me I act irrational and childlike. Delicious irony. My eyes are on the prize. You can celebrate whatever you like even a very sloppy win vs. team that has no business hanging with us. Like I said...Different perspectives. It's why I love Bob and most of the rah rah fanbase hates him. It's why I find cheerleaders like Wilde somewhat embarrassing and rah rah fan boys love him.

I just shake my head at the fluff we get outside of McGinn. Aaron's good buddy whom he hosted a radio show with, Jason Wilde:





Nobody would ever accuse Bob of the above. People hate him for being how he is (objective) but have no problem with cheerleaders like Wilde.

Players hate him because he is a LIAR!

January 25, 2016 McGinn was venting after GB loss in AZ and attacked Ted by saying this:

"All Thompson need do is be a little more open-minded [HIS ONLY EXAMPLE WAS].

Take Mason Foster, 26 and a starting inside linebacker for Tampa Bay from 2011-'14. He was cut by the Bears on Sept. 5 and was on the street until Redskins GM Scot McCloughan signed him Sept. 29 for minimum salary.

Foster, who beat out a pair of veterans to start in Washington, is better than Palmer, Joe Thomas and probably Ryan, at least now."

Here's the truth:
After 4 years with Bucs, they didn't want him even for the minimum. W/ 4 years of his play on tape, as an UFA there were no takers. So, he took a min deal with Bears before 2015 camp, who were DESPERATE for ILBs; but he got cut before season started. No one wanted him for a month. Then Wash had several ILBs with injury.

At the onset of season at ILB Washington had 3 A LOT better than Foster [Compton, Riley, Robinson] and the 4th ILB was rookie developmental guy Spaight. Then injuries hit, Foster was signed, he sat on bench for several weeks and when more injuries hit he got a shot.

After Fosters' game changing year as reported by McSpinn all he got after 2015 as an UFA was 2 years 2.5M/350K Guaranteed.

Foster was not better than Ryan or Thomas and he wasn't as good on STs as Palmer. His signing would have not improved the D, wasted 700K, and slowed the development of Thomas and Ryan.

And this is all liar-McSpinn has got to rip Ted. And he's done the same thing with several players. UNLESS HE LIKES THEM, like Brandon Burks, then he lies and fawns over how he made 3 great block in pass protection.

McGinn is the polar opposite of objectivity.

With all due respect, would you classify yourself as a liar for telling everyone here Richard Rodgers was going to be a star?

Were you an even bigger liar when you were challenged on this and retorted you knew what I didn't know because you watched all his tape?

Think on it and reread your previous post.

I think McGinn was also the one that basically called Thompson cheap and stupid for passing on Vernon Davis, especially for a horrible, never won anything, always injured Jared Cook... just to save a comp pick.

Part of me likes those article (because they are interesting and a nice idea to look at), but he clearly hypes it up to the point it is clearly lying on some parts... first off Cook has normally been healthy and Davis has normally been the injury prone one (in the last couple of years). But the lying also comes when he says it's so clear, everyone could see it... that's BULL... all the choices are gambles to some degree. Nothing is as clear (at the time) as he means it seem to be in looking back on it.

If it was that clear before hand, then he should be a GM in the NFL. Because those that do the job clearly don't see those things as clear.

Also Davis didn't want to come to GB before his draft, and he probably still doesn't while Washington is close to where he grew up. We have no idea... maybe Thompson did offer him something (probably not) but Cook had better production and less injuries over the last two years, so anyone suggesting Davis was clearly the best option is lying.

How can he be lying? Do you know VD wouldn't have been the better option? Do you?

You're either very stupid (which I don't think is the case) or you're trolling...

McGinn is the one suggesting he clearly knew during the offseason that Cook wouldn't have been the better option... NOT ME
I'm calling him a liar because there is no way for that to be clearly know that... which your questions correctly point out and basically agree with me.

So you're either too stupid to understand what is going on, or you're purposely turning the question around on me because you're trolling.

Stop with the trolling self protection angle.

I'm just stupid.

Fan Shout
Zero2Cool (17h) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying
dfosterf (21h) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount
dfosterf (21h) : Trade, cut or keep
dfosterf (22h) : that from Jaire
dfosterf (22h) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'
Zero2Cool (22h) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"
dfosterf (22h) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it
Zero2Cool (22h) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.
dfosterf (22h) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent
dfosterf (22h) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility
dfosterf (22h) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission
dfosterf (22h) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers
Zero2Cool (23h) : That someone ... likely the agent.
Zero2Cool (23h) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.
Zero2Cool (23h) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.
Zero2Cool (23h) : 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.
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) : 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?
