Couldn't agree with you more on the first two. I liked Wells a lot, but money is limited and it's one of those things that sucks about being a GM.

Cliffy was done. Love the guy. Packer Hall of Famer and hopefully has a job with the Packers somewhere down the line. But he was already done last year. I saw him miss blocks that he would have normally leveled the guy.

As for Collins, no opinion. Could have been arguably a potential Hall of Famer at the rate he was going, but I'm not a doctor.

There is absolutely NO CHANCE of ANY lawsuit. I really hate idiots who think they have to find any reason to sue someone. So god damn stupid. Earn your god damn money!

You really are clueless, holy damn. You're trying to make MORE to the story ... for what outcome? For what goal? For what reason? Look, it sucks he's not a Packer anymore, but that doesn't mean we have to act like complete tinfoil hat wearing douchebags about it. Nick Collins KNEW the risks, he knew he had to have the surgery to have any CHANCE to play. He knew the chances were slim when having the surgery.

The Packers didn't make Nick Collins have the surgery, Nick Collins CHOSE to have the surgery on his own! It's not that damn complicated to understand and if you for a god damn second read Nick Collins comments in his interviews since the injury you'd realize how ignorant you are about the whole situation.

Dude, come on. Don't use that word. I'm sorry. But don't. Everybody who uses that word sounds...well. Like that word.

Collins solicited several different medical opinions including those of the team doctor. That last opinion factored into the Packers’ decision to release Collins last week.

So it's the team doctor who's saying no? That's interesting. It's not just Ted and Mike reacting emotionally, I would have to assume.
