If you could change one thing about the team you love to cheer on.. just one single thing in any aspect of the organization, what would it be?

To foster the discussion past the same old routine.. please refrain from firing Ted Thompson or MM.

Looking for opinions like... eliminating the waiting list for ticket.. better seating in the stadium.. a sole propriety owner.. A dome so that we would get a chance at hosting a Superbowl.. Along lines such as that..

Is there anything you would change?

A seven percent maximum bodyfat limitation on cheerleaders would be appreciated. I know there's the cold factor to consider, but some of those girls should be put on the practice squad.

Thank goodness you're joking, because 7 percent body fat would set those girls up for a multitude of health problems later in life.

What bothers me about the Packers organization is that I have no viable chance of ever getting regular-season, single-gam tickets in my life. I don't think it's right that almost all tickets are season tickets, with a small minority of seats reserved for single-game tickets exclusively for residents of Brown County.

I think I should be able to buy tickets for a game online or at an official Packers box office like a fan of any other team, without being forced to purchase the inflated price of a one-time usage of some fan's season ticket.

The current system makes it virtually impossible for me to get a seat next to my wife, much less bring my kids along. So I just watch the games on TV.

A 35-year waiting list for season tickets is ridiculous, and does NOT add to the "mystique of Lambeau Field" for me. It just makes it seem like some sort of elitist good-old-boy club.

We love to brag about how every game at Lambeau Field is sold out, but in reality, the deck is stacked. We're cheating. When you have to wait half your life to get your ticket, no one is going to let go of their ticket unless they absolutely can't afford to keep it anymore. So of course tickets are always going to be sold out. In essence, every ticket is reserved for a lifetime. So it's not impressive to me.

As home to a team that loves to boast about how it's owned "by the people," Lambeau Field shouldn't be some shrine that 99% of fans who want to go never have a prayer of getting into in a reasonable manner.

P.S. Forcing lifelong season-ticket holders to sit on bleachers is silly.

What will you say if they get fired and the Packers go 2-14 the following year?

If I was to change one thing.. it would probably revolve around the stock that they sold as part of the fund raising for the stadium. I knew going in that there wasn't much entitlement to it, but in hindsight and today, I think there should be a little more attached to the shares.

I am thinking maybe special access to a rookie minicamp or OTA.. nothing huge.

Yes the tickets are an issue.. but it is simple supply and demand type scenario.. where the demand outweighs the supply better than two to one.. they couldn't build a stadium large enough to accommodate those waiting for tickets at face value.

To me, this is about the closest one can get to the perfect model of a sports franchise..

wpr (9h) : 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?
Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : Did they know that at the time or was that something the realized afterwards?
Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Van Ness played most of season with broken thumb
wpr (9-Apr) : yay
Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Mark Murphy says Steelers likely to protect Packers game. Meaning, no Ireland
Zero2Cool (8-Apr) : Struggling to figure out what text editor options are needed and which are 'nice to have'
Mucky Tundra (8-Apr) : *CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP*
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : WR who said he'd break Xavier Worthy 40 time...and ran slower than you
Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Who?
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Texas’ WR Isaiah Bond is scheduled to visit the Bills, Browns, Chiefs, Falcons, Packers and Titans starting next week.
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Spotting ball isn't changing, only measuring distance is, Which wasn't the issue.
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : The spotting of the ball IS the issue. Not the chain gang.
