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!

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!

beast (1h) : Apparently because players aren't doing the small things when the coaches tell them, and LaFleur believes they're more likely

Zero2Cool (3h) : Jordan isn't a vocal guy. Why not let him lead his way?

Martha Careful (14-Jan) : Yes, Saquon Barkley had a very nice game. But he has a much better offensive line in front of him. I'll take Josh Jacob's. I love the guy
