Excited? Yes. We will finally put to rest all the talk of why isn't he in the Hall. Magically his performance will have improved to the point where he has become worthy of being inducted.

He's only a finalist...doesn't mean he's in...yet.

I hope he doesn't make it. One of the most arrogant jerks out there.

If you think I'm just trying to be controversial...go look at the tweets I sent to Wilde about this a few hours ago. Ken Bowman will tell what a clown this guy is.

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."

Don't really care. HOF's have become a joke. Either a player is good enough or isn't. What they have done doesn't change once they retire.
The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

Anyone ever watch the piece on Ken Bowman done by ESPN? Ever heard Kramer speak? Very hard for me to hope this guy gets in because of the Bowman stuff which is backed up every time I hear Jerry speak.

Brett Favre the guy doesn't belong in Canton but Brett the player does. I don't know enough about Kramer's career to lobby for him. All I know is he comes off as a huge egomaniac and a credit taker to boot.

I hope he gets in and based on his great play which most of you don't remember,
He deserves to be in the NFL Hall of Fame.
If I had my choice of taking the Lambeau tour with a former living player, it would be with Jerry Kramer.

No one was there. I told the handler loud enough for him to hear me too what I wanted to say and then followed it with the comment if I have to buy his book to tell him that I will never read it.

I wouldn't walk across the room to see him again.

Might be a HOF player but sounds far from a HOF person.

Don't know Kramer or what type of person he or any other player is for that matter. All we know is what the media shows us mostly and they usually try to portray them in a good light because it is all about money.

But I always try to relate to what it would be like to be a well known player or celeb. While WPR might have been the only one there at that moment, we don't know what went on prior that day. Imagine how many jerks he has had to deal with over the years that may have said they only want to shake his hand or pay a complement. I can only imagine what it is like to live where anytime you are in a public place somebody wants to come up to you no matter how innocent the reason.

    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) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

    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"
