Jennings: I was 'brainwashed' in Green Bay· Page 3

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 (1h) : Merry Christmas!

beast (9h) : Merry Christmas 🎄🎁

beast (17h) : Sounds like no serious injuries from the Saints game and Jacobs and Watson should play in the Vikings game

packerfanoutwest (22h) : both games Watson missed, Packers won

Martha Careful (24-Dec) : I hope all of you have a Merry Christmas!

Mucky Tundra (24-Dec) : Oh I know about Jacobs, I just couldn't pass up an opportunity to mimic Zero lol

buckeyepackfan (24-Dec) : Jacobs was just sat down, Watson re-injured that knee that kept him out 1 game earlier

buckeyepackfan (24-Dec) : I needed .14 that's. .14 points for the whole 4th quarter to win and go to the SB. Lol

Mucky Tundra (24-Dec) : Jacobs gonna be OK???

Zero2Cool (24-Dec) : Watson gonna be OK???

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : Inactives tonight for the Pack: Alexander- knee Bullard - ankle Williams - quad Walker -ankle Monk Heath

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : No Jaire, but hopefully the front 7 destroys the line of scrimmage & forces Rattler into a few passes to McKinney.

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : minny could be #1 seed and the Lions #5 seed

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : We'd have same Division and Conference records. Strength of schedule we edge them

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I just checked. What tie breaker?

bboystyle (23-Dec) : yes its possible but unlikely. If we do get the 5th, we face the NFCS winner

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Ahh, ok.

bboystyle (23-Dec) : yes due to tie breaker

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I mean, unlikely, yes, but mathematically, 5th is possible by what I'm reading.

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : If Vikings lose out, Packers win out, Packers get 5th, right?

bboystyle (23-Dec) : Minny isnt going to lose out so 5th seed is out of the equation. We are playing for the 6th or 7th seed which makes no difference

Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : beast, the ad revenue goes to the broadcast company but they gotta pay to air the game on their channel/network

beast (23-Dec) : If we win tonight the game is still relative in terms of 5th, 6th or 7th seed... win and it's 5th or 6th, lose and it's 6th or 7th

beast (23-Dec) : Mucky, I thought the ad revenue went to the broadcasting companies or the NFL, at least not directly

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I think the revenue share is moot, isn't it? That's the CBA an Salary Cap handling that.

bboystyle (23-Dec) : i mean game becomes irrelevant if we win tonight. Just a game where we are trying to play spoilers to Vikings chance at the #1 seed

Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : beast, I would guess ad revenue from more eyes watching tv

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I would think it would hurt the home team because people would have to cancel last minute maybe? i dunno

beast (23-Dec) : I agree that it's BS for fans planning on going to the game. But how does it bring in more money? I'm guessing indirectly?

packerfanoutwest (23-Dec) : bs on flexing the game....they do it for the $$league$$, not the hometown fans

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I see what you did there Mucky

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : dammit. 3:25pm

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Packers Vikings flexed to 3:35pm

Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : Upon receiving the news about Luke Musgrave, I immediately fell to the ground

Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : Yeah baby!

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : LUKE MUSGRAVE PLAYING TONIGHT~!~~~~WOWHOAAOHAOAA yah

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I wanna kill new QB's ... blitz the crap out of them.

beast (23-Dec) : Barry seemed to get too conservative against new QBs, Hafley doesn't have that issue

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : However, we seem to struggle vs new QB's

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Should be moot point, cuz Packers should win tonight.

packerfanoutwest (23-Dec) : ok I stand corrected

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Ok, yes, you are right. I see that now how they get 7th

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : 5th - Packers win out, Vikings lose out. Maybe?

beast (23-Dec) : Saying no to the 6th lock.

beast (23-Dec) : No, with the Commanders beating the Eagles, Packers could have a good chance of 6th or 7th unless the win out

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I think if Packers win, they are locked 6th with chance for 5th.

beast (23-Dec) : But it doesn't matter, as the Packers win surely win one of their remaining games

beast (23-Dec) : This is not complex, just someone doesn't want to believe reality

beast (23-Dec) : We already have told you... if Packers lose all their games (they won't, but if they did), and Buccaneers and Falcons win all theirs

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I posted it in that Packers and 1 seed thread
