Wayne...Please, do not let any backlash in what you shared dissuade your future input. It's sad that Kramer is being defended because he's a former Packer. This is the very thing that I rail against. This rewriting of the narrative due to Packer bias. Truth is truth. Period.

That's a bias.

In short Packer fans do indeed have bias. It is not a bad thing. It's just a thing.

As far as truth goes, perspective is the key. I have a friend who is passionate about the Civil War. (He feels General George Thomas was the greatest general in the war. Union or Confederate. 40 years ago he even wrote a paper on it. He was probably 12 at the time. About 10 years ago he did a lot of talking on message boards to people who proudly defend the Confederacy. Long long long before the political hysteria we have today. We were talking one time and he said he is not sure what his convictions would be if he was born in Atlanta or Birmingham. A person is responsible for their actions but if you grow up being regaled with tales about the shoeless, gaunt men in shabby grey rags who defended their homes from the hoards of blue belly demons that burnt, raped and stole you would have a different outlook on the subject.

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.

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

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
