Yep, Ted knew what he was getting into when he took the job. It's not as if the lack of depth and young talent to replace the old fading talent just popped onto the scene in 2005. It was gradually eroding as the years went along.

Ted's job is to deal with problems, now he is a victim because he had to deal with problems


Yooperfan mad a great point, and as usual, you ignored it

At least you are consistent

I didn't call him a "victim".
He was hired to fix a mess, and thats what he is trying to do. I can guarentee that if YOU had his job, you'd be gone faster then a turd thats been flushed.
(Did you like the "potty" comparison?)LOLOL!!!

Ted is no victim!!
He is a highly paid professional who is the most powerful person in the most storied franchise in NFL history.

Ted, Brett nor Aaron have been a "victim" in any of this crap that has basically took one of the best fan bases in the NFL and turned them into a group divided that is currently on a mission to devour because of these three overpaid professionals.

Hell if one wants to point out a victim in all this, it is the middle of the road fans that choose to not idolize any of the folks mentioned at the beginning of my post, those that just want the Packers to succeed and love the sport of football.

Ted is a victim.. hardly, he knew full well what tasks and challenges laid in front of him the moment he signed on. He knew that the franchise had catered to an NFL legend at QB, a aging team, and a salary cap problem. He knew full well that there were going to be some type of issue with Brett ending is playing career in GB, either from the team or the fans.. it might have become more of a circus than he imagined, but he had his hand in that as well.

Being clear.. Brett is no victim either nor is his replacement at the starting QB of the Packers.. different thread though.

Color absolutely freaking tired of this four year old whining session that has taken place.. they all do a job that is suppose to entertain their fan bases.

This constant freaking debate isn't entertaining... it is borderline pathetic.

The fans are the victims if they let themselves be, otherwise, I agree that no one is a victim.

Ted can be anything he wants to be - if he wants to be the victim he can be that.

    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
