They do and that's what's worse. The only reason they're included in our feed is because once in while they have a headline that spurs an idea. They have one or two writers who are decent. Mordecai or whatever we is a hyperbolic wannabe.

The more personalities providing input the better. I think it's nerd who pulls in articles from PFT all the time.

This isn't a topic about Total Packers. I intended it to be a topic to discuss Mark Murphy's lack of professionalism. Am I the only one that is slightly bothered by the way he seems to handle things?

I never cared for the man from the start and was confused as to why he was chosen but for all the grief I got about my dislike for Thompson from the beginning I just kept my fingers from doing the talking.

Unless something is mean, disrespectful or rude... I tend to overlook the way something is done, and see more the what was done.

I'm amazed no one has pointed out that Mark Murphy has admitted publicly he's a Bills fan -- not to mention, he played for the Redskins for years -- which makes it obvious that hiring as president and CEO was nothing more than a conspiracy to keep the Packers from ever achieving dominance in our lifetime.

Perhaps he waited too long, but most of us were clamoring for action...and we got it. He pulled the trigger.
We live in a results world so it would seem to be more appropriate to judge people by what they get done, not how smoothly they communicatee.
Yes, we would all like to have both, but I would prefer good decisions to a smooth scheister any time. Belichick is not the greatest speaker either. Neither is Mike Zimmer, neither was Aristotle or Isaac Newton.

Sure, but it's not unreasonable to expect that a CEO can do both. Especially after some potentially questionable decisions, and "silos" that somehow developed under his leadership, which apparently lead to some of these issues.

wpr (19h) : Ah today's Shout was very quick to post.
wpr (19h) : now 3
Zero2Cool (20h) : Who? What?
beast (22-Apr) : What is he supposed to say? He doesn't want players currently on the team?
Martha Careful (21-Apr) : meh
Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : Sounds like Walker and Wyatt will be with Packers for beyond 2026
Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : It's so awesome.

wpr (21-Apr) : Only 4
wpr (21-Apr) : Only 4
Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : If only we had a topic to read about and discuss it. That's something new website must have!!!
dfosterf (21-Apr) : 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
