I know he knows he's not a journalist, but Florio pisses me off. I like the site. Let me rephrase that. I like to stay in the loop on NFL rumors. What pisses me off is skewed and biased slant toward the Vikings. Let me rephrase that. What pisses me off is that he acts like he's not biased toward the Vikings. Look at the rumor mill right now. Top story relates Childress wearing a visor to practice. Is that seriously news? What the hell? How about little love for the Packers. No way, that is way too much to ask. Can't talk about Rodgers' huge potential, or any news on the competition along the o-line, or getting our defense healthy... NO WAY! All that is ever on PFT about the Packers is "Collins is unhappy!", "Bigby is unhappy!", "Jennings is unhappy!", "Kampman is unhappy!", "Driver is unhappy!".... BLAH BLAH BLAH!

what the heck, another blurb on PFT where Florio does his best to bring down the hammer on the Packers.

Isn't EVERY team pretty secretive when it comes to injuries? I mean, it makes sense. It's not breaking the rules. If it's not cheating, then I don't have a problem with the organization being secretive about the injuries so that opponents have to game plan like the player is healthy.

It's something all NFL teams do. It's just the way it is.

lol, yeah, that's lame.

Of course the Green Bay Packers are the only NFL team that are secretive against injuries. It's common knowledge. Duh.

Reading those comments at PFT ... makes me glad we're not a 'mainstream' website. Lots of negative and pessimistic people out there. Wow.

Florio blasted the Patriots for their injury report too. I've been reading his stuff for years. How many of you actually read the other articles that are NON Packers? He's jumped on other teams for this too. Someone in the WI media wrote something about Florio and his mistake on Bigby and that is probably why he spent so much ink on that story. Not to mention things are kind of slow. Speaking slow, I'm sick of the one liners that are for the Packers but regard Brett. He's not a freaking Packer anymore so stop wasting our one line spot on a Free Agent!

dfosterf (5h) : Meathead "journalists" skip this, concentrating on operational revenue when convenient. They switch when net revenue is more favorable.

dfosterf (5h) : Resulting in an actual drop of net revenue of 12.5%. She is from Minnesota. Just sayin'

dfosterf (6h) : Did Savion Williams run into a goalpost or something?

Mucky Tundra (6h) : also, no bueno when a guy starts getting concussions right off the bat in his career

Zero2Cool (7h) : Concussion is worse. Banks probably vet off day via back booboo claim

Mucky Tundra (9h) : @AndyHermanNFL Jordy Nelson out at camp today. No word if he’s in play for one of the two open roster spots ; )

dfosterf (9h) : Is that better or worse than Banks bad back?

Zero2Cool (10h) : Savion concussion ... not good.

packerfanoutwest (24-Jul) : Aaron Rodgers’s first pass of first team period was picked off

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : I was thinking of Ozzy and Hulk

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : Who's Theo?

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Maybe Tyrod Taylor instead

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : He's on Browns, right?

dfosterf (24-Jul) : They would probably go with Flacco is my guess if Fields out

dfosterf (23-Jul) : 2nd issue. Number 1 issue was no gameday childcare. 1 of 3 teams not providing it

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Suppose if locker room is main issue, we sitting pretty

wpr (23-Jul) : I thought so Mucky. In those useless player polls GB always rates high overall. Locker is a part of it.
