James Jones 'bothered' with week one playing time· Page 8

I love having James Jones in our wide receiver corps. He drops some, but he also does some awesome things in clutch situations.

To date, I like him better than Jordy, and I like Jordy just fine. If that is the extent of the public whine to come from Jones, we are- as we already knew- extraordinarily blessed to have such a non-whiney, non-diva, non "me-first" receiving group, especially in the context of how talented they all are. I say keep your depth charts, your best "1-2" combos, etc... all that is not applicable in Green Bay, Wisconsin. Defenses run out of defensive backs long before the Pack runs out of very awesome wide receivers, and JAMES Jones is CERTAINLY one of them, and in some situations, the best of them.

imo.

(aside- why I capitalize JAMES Jones🤣 - it's an "old school" kinda thing, having to do with "my man", Mr. JAMES Brown)

Can we just cut him? He is not needed. Cobb took his job. He's done.

2005. Need I say more? (You can never have too many WRs).

Pack - I gave you an applause as you kept your cool with being trolled. That takes a strong gut. Kudos.

He needs to just hush. My prediction: Rodgers throws 3-4 balls his way this weekend, and he drops at least 1 of them which would have been a biggy.

So now I ask... Where does the non-sequitur aspect come in? Pretty clearly it came from you answering a post with what you would do not how you would answer the interview question.

Next time.. before insinuating that I am some "shebitch" that can't follow along.. get your shit straight ahead of time. I have the ability to discuss this sport without such a petty approach.

Alrighty Nerd.. stick yourself in his shoes and answer the question posed...

What is reaction to only getting one ball thrown your way and a handful of meaningful snaps?

Just be careful.. because I will browbeat your ass with the answer.. [grin1]

Nerd.. try grasping the concept and context of the point.. but alas apparently you are to stuck on being well you. Not really sure why you are lashing out on me.. but really no matter, you took the only route apparently you can. I don't think I have been disrespectful towards you.. if so.. I apologize.

The point is.. the question itself is not a trick.. it is a tool for which a reporter will gain an article. Either way Jones answers it.. the reporter is going to "create" a story.
