If I were you guys I'd keep the porn on the Ray server.

I can see the comptroller down in Brazil:

Como o inferno voc soletra Nitschke?

How the hell do you spell Nitschke?
in Portuguese, lol

Let's face it - Green Bay isn't exactly a cosmopolitan city. It might be a haven for Packers fans, but not all football players are Packers fans - they play football for a paycheck.

There's really no real reason to go to Green Bay (if you're not from there) unless you are a Packers fan. They are the biggest attraction, otherwise it is an ordinary, average, uninteresting town in the middle of the country.

You know, I walk around in Perth, Australia, some 11000 miles from Green Bay, and see more Packers jerseys on the streets than I do any other NFL team.

To be honest though, I can't comprehend how much love for the Packers there is - I mean, I've heard about it, but I've never seen it. But hearing stories about the fans, the team and the tradition just makes me all the more proud to follow such a franchise. I haven't taken a walk around Green Bay or toured Lambeau field. But I will one day. I will one day.

my comment on that site:

"keep in mind? keep in mind nothing. i'm sorry but i don't care how hard working he is (and how do you know all of these personal attributes, are you his mother?) the guy isn't a "class act" and he most certainly is not "humble." people who could be described with such words don't open their mouths when they shouldn't...in fact they do the opposite. that's what being classy and humble is all about: not appearing like a juvenile jack-ass in front of the world.

that said, i grew up in appleton. i went to punk shows in green bay as a teen. i moved to milwaukee, boston, nyc and now chapel hill (raleigh-durham, triangle) and while green bay isn't a very self-selling city, how dense do you have to be not to understand Lambeau and the only organization in the NFL owned by the city? and you have the lack of foresight to actually talk smack about that? to the media?

dumb kid deserves every bit of criticism he gets."

I agree with Twinkiegorilla.

my comment on that site:

Lifelong Packer fan. Mostly an east coast guy. They worry about their reputation in Green Bay. They fear players will not come there because of some of the perceptions of folks like Rice.

I love going to that city and Lambeau when I get the chance. It's one hell of a lot warmer there than most NFL cities, and if you don't understand what I mean by that...chances are you have never been there.

Thank you Andrew on behalf of my many friends in Green Bay, along with my many fellow Packer fan friends all over this world. That is our town, too, wherever we live, and we are proud of it.

That sums it up for me. The people of Green Bay are most definitely a part of the Green Bay Packers, just as Zero stated.

Rice apologized on his twitter, writing something about "not judging a book by its cover." So basically he's still saying that Green Bay looks like a big pile of crap, but he suspends his judgment because it may not be as bad as it appears. :lol:

beast (13h) : 6 days

wpr (17-Apr) : 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.
