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.
