Aaron Kampman - Al Harris

Was just wondering what these two we're thinking / feeling when they watched us win the SB.

It saddens me to see those two players not in the winning roster. Specially, right after Harris was cut and Kampman was traded the year ago.

* Edit: It probably wouldn't sadden me if it was 2-3 years after they had left.

"It saddens me to see him not on the winning roster."

I guess the point I am making is... If Harris, Kampman, and him were on the roster... The Packers would have not won it all.

It is a good post. I understand how you are thinking... But if the Packers did not move on in many, many ways there would have not even been a FOURTH SUPERBOWL CHAMPIONSHIP.

Five years ago, Five months ago, or five minutes ago.... There can be no growth without change. There can be no change without growth.

There will be cuts this year and there will be a new roster. CHANGE, It is a damn good thing.

I suggest you learn to like compensatory picks like Josh Sitton.

Most players in that situation say that they are happy for their former teammates, many of whom they consider to be friends. I think that's true, but it's probably not the whole truth. There must be that feeling of "what might have been"--that things didn't turn out the way they could have. On the other hand, I think most of these guys are pretty resilient and don't dwell on it too much.

AK and AH were probably happy for us - they were both big enough men to avoid any bitterness.

I KNOW what Brent was thinking...

While I feel for them. They know it is a business. I am certain they feel that they could have contributed to the victory. They just didn't have a vote in the matter.

How could they have contributed to the victory? Our defense improved without them, and they both ended back up on IR this year.

Some of the best decisions Ted Thompson made was letting those two go.

This thread is quickly becoming "Random Babble" material.

Is it time for the draft yet?

It ain't like Al, Aaron, and Brent weren't handsomely compensated for their services to the GBP. This championship is/was/and always will be about our young fire pissers, Uncle Ted, and MM. Nostalgia is overated.

Wow, that's harsh. If healthy, they both could've been contributors, though there's no way to be sure of course. Are you somehow interpreting wpr's comment as a criticism of Ted Thompson, or a lack of appreciation for the job he's done? Because I don't see it at all.

DakotaT has also missed the point. I don't see any problem with thinking about some of the good players who are now gone. If you think these guys are in it solely for the money, you're wrong. They do want to win.

dfosterf (8-May) : I never thought I'd live long enough to call a pope a FIB, but here we are

Martha Careful (8-May) : Chicago produces a pope before it produces a 4000 yard passing quarterback

wpr (8-May) : HAHAHA Mucky Comment of the day.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : According to reports, Mel Kiper is furious that Sanders wasn't selected as the new Pope

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Time taken to get picked:

Zero2Cool (8-May) : New Pope: 2 days | Shedeur Sanders: 3 days

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Collin Whitchurch @cowhitchurch · 1h Chicago got a pope before it got a QB to throw for 4,000 yards in a season.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : New Pope from Chicago; in other words, the city produced a Pope before a 4000 yard passer

beast (7-May) : My first name starts with R and my beer belly is quite voluptuous! Thank you for noticing 😏

Zero2Cool (7-May) : beast, you're just one R from being voluptuous.

Zero2Cool (7-May) : And now some Packers blogger is like Doubs to Steelers makes sense!!!!

Zero2Cool (7-May) : You saw me Tweet???

Martha Careful (5-May) : Yes, in the military S2’s work on IPB, PERCEC, PHYSEC and IO

dfosterf (4-May) : FYI civilian companies swipe the S2 designation from the military. S2 is the intelligence branch up to brigade level. G2 is division level.

dfosterf (4-May) : Google it. Make sure to tack NFL on it or you will get the military meaning

Zero2Cool (4-May) : S2?

beast (4-May) : Seems like the S2 has a love/hate relationship with professional scouts.

beast (4-May) : In theory, the S2 test how quickly a QBs brain can solve game like issues and how quickly they can do it.

dfosterf (4-May) : Are you gentlemen and at least one lady familiar with the S2 cognition

Zero2Cool (4-May) : Maybe there isn't an issue.

beast (4-May) : NFL really needs to fix their position labeling issue, but I don't think they care

Zero2Cool (1-May) : Packers did not activate the fifth-year options for linebacker Quay Walker, with the goal of signing him to a contract extension.

Zero2Cool (1-May) : Matthew Golden spoke with Randall Cobb before draft. Looked like chance encounter.

packerfanoutwest (1-May) : from a head left turn?

packerfanoutwest (1-May) : someone drunk?

Zero2Cool (1-May) : Unlikely.

dfosterf (30-Apr) : How long until Jeff Sperbeck's family sues John Elway ?

Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : Packers are exercising the fifth-year option on DT Devonte Wyatt, locking in a guaranteed $12.9M for the 2026 season.

beast (30-Apr) : Sounds like P Luke Elzinga has a rookie try out opportunity from the Titans

dfosterf (30-Apr) : Luke Elzinga Punter Oklahoma stil unsigned. Green Bay has been mentioned as good fit

beast (30-Apr) : The Packers re-signed three exclusive rights free agents WR Melton, P Whelan and RB Wilson.

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : February 5, 2002 (age 23) ok no. packers.com is wrong

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Micah Robinson is only 19??

Martha Careful (29-Apr) : ty bboystyle...fat fingers

bboystyle (29-Apr) : Tom*

Martha Careful (28-Apr) : RIP Packer Safety Tim Brown

beast (27-Apr) : Yeah, but also some of the wording suggestions Jax only pranked called the QB, not the others... and if he had an open spreadsheet & 3 calls

beast (27-Apr) : Thank goodness he's not leaving the Turtle in the Red Tide

Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : Cowboys 1st round pick Tyler Booker will indeed be bringing his pet turtle to Dallas with him

Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : that contained all prospects info and contact

Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : beast, according the Falcons statement Jax came across it on an ipad. If I had to guess, probably an open spread sheet or something
