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.

Mucky Tundra (21-Dec) : rough injury for tank dell. guy can't catch abreak

beast (21-Dec) : So far the college playoffs have sucked... One team absolutely dominates the other

beast (21-Dec) : Well even if you weren't positive towards a guy, you wouldn't nessarily want to tell the media that (if they don't know about it)

Martha Careful (21-Dec) : I think MLF want Love to look past the end half issues, and feel good about his play. Our coaches generally keep a very positive tone.

beast (21-Dec) : I think a great running game will do that for most QBs

packerfanoutwest (21-Dec) : Coach Matt LaFleur has said quarterback Jordan Love is playing the best football of his career.

beast (21-Dec) : Oh, that's how you keep beating buckeye, with cheating

beast (20-Dec) : As of tonight, 3 way tie for 2nd in Pick'em, that battle is interesting!

beast (20-Dec) : Lions vs Vikings could be the main last game as it could determine division winners or #1 vs #2 seed

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Or if KC needs to win for the #1 seed

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Right now it looks like the only prime worthy games are Det-Minny and KC-Denver (if Denver can clinch a wild card spot)

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : The entirety of week 18 being listed as flex is weird

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Matt LaFleur today says unequivocally "Ted Thompson had nothing to do with the drafting of Jordan Love."

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Apparently, the editing is what pieces comments together. That Ted thing ... fake news.

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : LaFleur "opportunity that Ted Thompson thought was too good to pass up"

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Jordan Love pick was Ted Thompson's idea.

Mucky Tundra (19-Dec) : Kyle Shanahan on signing De'Vondre Campbell as a FA last offseason: “We obviously made a mistake.”

packerfanoutwest (19-Dec) : Alexander’s last season with GB

Martha Careful (18-Dec) : if I were a professional athlete, I would probably look to see who the agent is for Kirk Cousins and then use him

beast (18-Dec) : $100 million fully guaranteed Kirk Cousins gets benched for rookie

Mucky Tundra (18-Dec) : a lower case b

Mucky Tundra (18-Dec) : The real lie is how beast capitalized his name in his message while it's normally spelled with

packerfanoutwest (18-Dec) : haha that's a lie

beast (17-Dec) : Despite what lies other might tell, Beast didn't hate the Winter Warnings, it felt refreshing to Beast for some reason.

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : whiteout uniforms in general are pretty lame and weak. NFL greed at it's worst

Martha Careful (17-Dec) : The Viking uniforms, the whiteout uniforms specifically absolutely suck

beast (17-Dec) : Thanks Zero2Cool, looks a lot better now

beast (17-Dec) : Seems like someone has a crush on me, can't stop talking about me

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : Should be gooder now. The forum default theme went to goofy land.

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : What the hell

packerfanoutwest (17-Dec) : yeah beast hates the Winter Warning Unies

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Okay I'm glad to know it's not just something happening to me lol

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Zero, did you copy the Packers uniforms from last night and white out the board?

beast (16-Dec) : Oh crap, is the board going to the Winter Warning Uniforms too?!? It's all white on white right now!
