So what!!

Steve from Eau Claire, WI
There was an article this week noting Aaron stayed on the field, rather than heading over to talk to Coach McCarthy during two timeouts last Monday night. The article speculated this action could indicate a possible rift between Aaron and the head coach. You know the game and the intricacies of coach and player relations in general. Any feel for something like this, or is it just the usual article trying to stir the pot a bit?

Blame the media? No, I think it's a credible observation. Rift? So what? Terry Bradshaw and Chuck Noll had a rift and they won four Super Bowls together. Otto Graham told me he had to be restrained by a teammate from going after Paul Brown on the sideline and they won seven championships together. Roger Staubach asked to be traded because he was angry at Tom Landry for the two-QB system Landry was using. There's even rumors Brady and Belichick don't get along. What do you want, love or championships?

All different coaches, all different quarterbacks, all different psyche's in different eras.
That's something I don't like about Vic and don't usually read his stuff.
How dare anyone question the greatness of the Packers.
Talk about green and gold kool aid, Vic bottles it.

Winning championships makes rifts be ignored. But when you lose, they become a focal point, and they get bigger and bigger.
Winning solves all problems.
So what if you can’t get along? As long as you pile up the trophies, you ignore not seeing eye to eye.
And so do the fans and writers.

If it comes out that Aaron spread rumors of Ted having dementia in order to get him removed, I will lose A LOT of respect for him.

I read nearly everything I can regarding the Green Bay Packers and I have never even heard anything even hinting such a rumor.
