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.

beast (8h) : Merry Christmas 🎄🎁

beast (16h) : Sounds like no serious injuries from the Saints game and Jacobs and Watson should play in the Vikings game

packerfanoutwest (20h) : both games Watson missed, Packers won

Martha Careful (22h) : I hope all of you have a Merry Christmas!

Mucky Tundra (24-Dec) : Oh I know about Jacobs, I just couldn't pass up an opportunity to mimic Zero lol

buckeyepackfan (24-Dec) : Jacobs was just sat down, Watson re-injured that knee that kept him out 1 game earlier

buckeyepackfan (24-Dec) : I needed .14 that's. .14 points for the whole 4th quarter to win and go to the SB. Lol

Mucky Tundra (24-Dec) : Jacobs gonna be OK???

Zero2Cool (24-Dec) : Watson gonna be OK???

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : Inactives tonight for the Pack: Alexander- knee Bullard - ankle Williams - quad Walker -ankle Monk Heath

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : No Jaire, but hopefully the front 7 destroys the line of scrimmage & forces Rattler into a few passes to McKinney.

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : minny could be #1 seed and the Lions #5 seed

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : We'd have same Division and Conference records. Strength of schedule we edge them

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I just checked. What tie breaker?

bboystyle (23-Dec) : yes its possible but unlikely. If we do get the 5th, we face the NFCS winner

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Ahh, ok.

bboystyle (23-Dec) : yes due to tie breaker

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I mean, unlikely, yes, but mathematically, 5th is possible by what I'm reading.

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : If Vikings lose out, Packers win out, Packers get 5th, right?

bboystyle (23-Dec) : Minny isnt going to lose out so 5th seed is out of the equation. We are playing for the 6th or 7th seed which makes no difference

Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : beast, the ad revenue goes to the broadcast company but they gotta pay to air the game on their channel/network

beast (23-Dec) : If we win tonight the game is still relative in terms of 5th, 6th or 7th seed... win and it's 5th or 6th, lose and it's 6th or 7th

beast (23-Dec) : Mucky, I thought the ad revenue went to the broadcasting companies or the NFL, at least not directly

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I think the revenue share is moot, isn't it? That's the CBA an Salary Cap handling that.

bboystyle (23-Dec) : i mean game becomes irrelevant if we win tonight. Just a game where we are trying to play spoilers to Vikings chance at the #1 seed

Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : beast, I would guess ad revenue from more eyes watching tv

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I would think it would hurt the home team because people would have to cancel last minute maybe? i dunno

beast (23-Dec) : I agree that it's BS for fans planning on going to the game. But how does it bring in more money? I'm guessing indirectly?

packerfanoutwest (23-Dec) : bs on flexing the game....they do it for the $$league$$, not the hometown fans

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I see what you did there Mucky

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : dammit. 3:25pm

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Packers Vikings flexed to 3:35pm

Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : Upon receiving the news about Luke Musgrave, I immediately fell to the ground

Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : Yeah baby!

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : LUKE MUSGRAVE PLAYING TONIGHT~!~~~~WOWHOAAOHAOAA yah

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I wanna kill new QB's ... blitz the crap out of them.

beast (23-Dec) : Barry seemed to get too conservative against new QBs, Hafley doesn't have that issue

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : However, we seem to struggle vs new QB's

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Should be moot point, cuz Packers should win tonight.

packerfanoutwest (23-Dec) : ok I stand corrected

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Ok, yes, you are right. I see that now how they get 7th

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : 5th - Packers win out, Vikings lose out. Maybe?

beast (23-Dec) : Saying no to the 6th lock.

beast (23-Dec) : No, with the Commanders beating the Eagles, Packers could have a good chance of 6th or 7th unless the win out

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I think if Packers win, they are locked 6th with chance for 5th.

beast (23-Dec) : But it doesn't matter, as the Packers win surely win one of their remaining games

beast (23-Dec) : This is not complex, just someone doesn't want to believe reality

beast (23-Dec) : We already have told you... if Packers lose all their games (they won't, but if they did), and Buccaneers and Falcons win all theirs

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I posted it in that Packers and 1 seed thread

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I literally just said it.
