How in the hell can u pay a man this much money that cant run tackle or catch,” White wrote. “Roger Goodell is getting over never seen anything like it 20 million for looking over the league with tremendous help I guess the NFL is banking.

the players make this league dont ever forget that.

I kind of agree with the other comments I've read about this quote. If Roger Goodell wasn't doing a good job, then Roddy White wouldn't be making what his salary is. It would be a lot less.

I liked Roddy White before he realized he was a talented WR.

The players make the league, he's right about that. But Goodell (and I'm not a fan of the guy either) does alot to make sure Roddy get's a paycheck. This guy bitching is like me bitching because Fred Smith (the CEO of FedEx) makes more than I do, and it's many people's belief that package handlers are what makes FedEx work. Both Smith and Goodell do things corporate/league wide that the players/handlers don't ever want to worry about thinking about.

STFU, Roddy, and do your job.

Disagree. The players didn't make the NFL. The owners and commissioners did. Without them and the deals they put together the players would be playing pick up games in the back yard of a local church or high school their they neighbors.

The only people watching them would be a couple of teenage girls from down the street who want to hit on them.

Does Roddy think he and 5 of his friends could walk into Budweiser, Frito Lay, Nike, FOX or any of the major corp who spend copious amounts of money on the game and get them to even sit down and talk to him little alone get these businesses to shell out the same amount of money that they currently are spending? No likely.

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.

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

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.

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

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!
