I'm going to be viewed as negative by people whether they ever call me out or not.Same goes for how I view posts regardless if I label or not.

This site is becoming more and more Anti-Packer every week. I remember the days when this site was enjoyable win or loss with good logical discussions. Now it is bashing Rodgers, bashing McCarthy, Bashing Ted. Like dealing with a bunch of teenagers.

I prefer not to read political, religious, or social commentary on what should be a sports only forum, but that has not stopped even me from straying off the pure sports forum path on occasion.

In addition, fun topics posted in their correct category add to the fun for some members. It would be great if someone like a College/Pro - Player/Coach were to sign on and shower us with their football knowledge . Someone who would regularly lift everyone's knowledge level with videos, pictures, graphics, along with their written posting.

Go Pack Go !

I'm not unreasonable nor irrational when I can point to the fact Brady has 5 rings and 7 or 8 SB appearances and our franchise over a much longer period has 2 rings and 3 appearances. I'd be irrational if not for New England but a lot of Packers fans want to pretend the Patriots don't exist and aren't a measuring stick but that is exactly what they are. Either Brady is that much better than Favre and Rodgers or one org is failing. I see the latter.

Boards will forever be divided by those who are critical vs. those who don't want to be. I honestly believe we all know the same things. It's just easier for certain people to go there where others don't want to.

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."

I admit I am not a happy go lucky fan. I am very hard on myself and I am hard on my kids to be the best they can be. That is why I would never coach my children as I recognize that I would likely push them too hard and I don`t want them to not want to do something because of me.

My patience is just wearing thin with how little we have won, with the most amazing luck to have Brett and Aaron. Now that the years with Aaron are getting close to talks of when he will retire it is really starting to get to me that we have let opportunities get away. I never thought I could get over 4th and 26, but along came the Seattle game for the NFC. I still think that game has changed me as a fan when it comes to this team and not for the better. I live and die with this team, but now I expect to die more often than I care for.

I am a little confused. The Packers get crushed on Sunday night and some Packers fans have some negative things to say about the team? Seems pretty normal to me.

Maybe there is a feeling that this is more systematic over time. We are entering week 3 after a looooong offseason. Given the fact that the packers got destroyed in the last game of the previous season, one would expect most of the offseason to be filled with bitching and searching for solutions. If the pack go on a 10 game winning streak, I suspect that most of the comments will be positive.

And they will want Dom Capers fired because elite WR like Julio Jones were not stopped receptionless for four quarters.

In other words, ... no one is every happy. WE WANTZ MOREZ!!!

Every year 31 out of 32 teams go home without a ring, to be honest the Packers are held to such a high standard year after year that you are more guilty of your unrealistic expectations than anything. Marino was probably a better Qb than Favre or Rodgers and he never won shit.

Ease up on your kids btw, or good luck when they pick your retirement home down the road 🤣

Not that it matters but 2 teams get rings. One gets the SB ring. The other receives the less gaudy NFC or AFC championship ring that the players throw in a dresser drawer and never look at again.
The grandkids finally sell them to a local jewelry store for the gold in the rings.

I see a difference between being upset after a loss, and just being negative. If anything perhaps this little sidebar will result in more actual discussion about players and plays of the games and less, Fire Ted, Fire Mike, Fire Dom, Rodgers sucks.
The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

Martha Careful (3h) : meh
Zero2Cool (8h) : Sounds like Walker and Wyatt will be with Packers for beyond 2026
Zero2Cool (8h) : It's so awesome.
Zero2Cool (8h) : new site fan shout post fast
wpr (11h) : Slow posting in Fan shout.
wpr (11h) : Only 4
wpr (11h) : Only 4
Zero2Cool (13h) : If only we had a topic to read about and discuss it. That's something new website must have!!!
dfosterf (14h) : Justice Musqueda over at Acme Packing put up an excellent synopsis of the Packers 1st round options this am
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.
Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?
