And to justify what I'm talking about.. Here's an article from the man who's show Jennings made his 'brainwashing' comment on:

http://www.kfan.com/pages/psn_paulallen.html?article=11557308

I was right next to the cat yesterday when he talked about "The Green Bay Way." It was harmless. Not I felt it was harmless, it was harmeless and very complimentary of what we do around here. I am shocked something little like this has been seen for long stretches on ESPN, NFLN and at NFL.com. Just flabergasted.
What's wrong with a successful company leading its employees to think our way is the right way? It's what we do at KFAN and we have equity, ratings and revenue-generated to prove it. We are proud.
Green Bay is a tiny market and they live to feel the aura/team is by far the best, most well respected in the league. Patriots fans feel the same way, and BELICHICK brainwashes bad players into thinking they are good. And they win.

Everyone one of Jennings' comments individually could be shrugged off as nothing or out of context or what have you but in the totality of everything he's said this offseason (hell even throw in his sisters comments) the guy comes off as a salty diva.

1. Florio *is* a tool.

2. I'm not bothered by anything GJ has said. He's come off as more edgy, less corporate speak the last couple years, but frankly, I'd rather have the edginess that sometimes sounds like whining than corporate-coach babble or happy-clappy-everything's-great.

3. Families aren't all joy and happiness. Witness PH debating the state of its back alley for the last several weeks. I'm no less of a Packer fan than I've ever been, but I don't buy the notion that 1265 Lombardi is somehow devoid of the non-happiness bits. Frankly, I think an organization that occasionally is seen leaking a bit of steam, even if it is hot air from someone I believe is acting diva-ish or child-ish is a more functional "family" than one that babbles happy/clappy/we're special crapola constantly.

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

It doesn't bother me at all.
It will make it that much sweeter when the Packers kick the collective asses of the Vikings.
Now Jennings doesn't have a Aaaron Rodgers to throw to him, or a Jordy Nelson, Jones, Cobb, or Driver to take the pressure off of him.
He's on an island now. Let's see if he's "all that" the way he THINKS he is.

The guy started out humble, and a "team" guy. Now he's all in love with himself.

Let's see.....the Packers attitude has got them several division championships, and a Super Bowl in the last several years. How many Super Bowl wins have the Vikings had?
Jennings is "whistling through the graveyard" IN MY OPINION.

Zero2Cool (46m) : what

Martha Careful (11h) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife

Martha Careful (11h) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately

Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.

dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.

Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : Did they know that at the time or was that something the realized afterwards?

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Van Ness played most of season with broken thumb

wpr (9-Apr) : yay

Zero2Cool (8-Apr) : Struggling to figure out what text editor options are needed and which are 'nice to have'

Mucky Tundra (8-Apr) : *CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP*

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : WR who said he'd break Xavier Worthy 40 time...and ran slower than you

Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Who?

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Texas’ WR Isaiah Bond is scheduled to visit the Bills, Browns, Chiefs, Falcons, Packers and Titans starting next week.

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Spotting ball isn't changing, only measuring distance is, Which wasn't the issue.

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : The spotting of the ball IS the issue. Not the chain gang.

Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Will there be a tracker on the ball or something?

Zero2Cool (1-Apr) : uh oh

Martha Careful (1-Apr) : Too bad camera's can't spot the ball as well.

Mucky Tundra (1-Apr) : So will the chain gang be gone completely or will they still be around as a backup or whatever?

Zero2Cool (1-Apr) : The method for measuring first downs in the NFL will switch from chain gangs to camera-based technology in 2025, the league announced.

Martha Careful (1-Apr) : A big step in the right direction. Just put in the college system is very very good.

Zero2Cool (1-Apr) : NFL has passed a rule that allows both teams to possess the ball in OT during the regular season

Zero2Cool (1-Apr) : Touchbacks on kickoffs will now bring the ball to the 35-yard line.

beast (31-Mar) : It might of gotten more popular recently, but braiding hair (even men) in certain cultures goes back for centuries.

Martha Careful (30-Mar) : Is men braiding their hair a new style thing? Watching the NCAA men's tournament many players have done

Zero2Cool (29-Mar) : Ha. Well, it'd be nice for folks to reset their own password. Via validated email 😏

beast (29-Mar) : Monopoly was supposed to be an educational game, that show how evil capitalism was and how we should avoid it

beast (29-Mar) : Lol, I was thinking username would be better, as then I wouldn't have to keep an email up to date lol 😂

wpr (29-Mar) : sure is

Zero2Cool (29-Mar) : Monopoly is a rip off of The Landlord's Game

wpr (27-Mar) : 28 days until the draft

earthquake (27-Mar) : Which seemed strange to my 9 year old self, that you could be a fan for a team other than the one you play for

earthquake (27-Mar) : Nothing eventful happened, other than it being clear that he was a bengals fan

earthquake (27-Mar) : And we went and hung out with him one afternoon, I must have been 9 or so
