So your family would remember you much differently than we would? I'm joking, I'm joking, I couldn't resist. We disagree on a lot of things but underneath we are all Packers fans so we can joke a little with each other...right?

You've got almost 20 years on me but I suppose I could say pretty much what you did. Nothing special but no regrets. I've lived my life pretty much the same way my father has, quiet and unassuming. Work hard and love the ones around you. Take care of your own, help out those you can when you can. Nothing means as much to me as my family does (I'm not married and I have no kids but I have brothers and sisters and nieces and nephews) and I think they know that and I think that is what I would be remembered for and to be honest I can't think of much better things to be remembered for.

It's only sad if YOU think it is sad. Some people want to be remembered for big things or feel the need to be remembered by many. I don't need that and apparently you don't either so no it is not sad at all.

I posed this question because of some real life ordeals that got me thinking about some things.

What headstone design would I want. What songs should be played at my funeral that are reminiscent of me. What would I like said about me. Most importantly, even if I were to die tomorrow, have I laid enough of a foundation for my girls to grow up to be good women?

I'd want the legacy of me to be defined through my girls. As for what everyone will think about me. I know only a very select few truly get me and the rest completely misunderstand me and label, which is fine. But I can't say outside of family and friends I care much about other people's thoughts of me. That being said, I think they'd say I was a very caring person, excellent family member who bent over backwards to help anyone and was very blunt to the point kind of person who found a way to smile and make others smile regardless of the situation.

As it is I hardly have enough time to make my usual contribution here.

Besides, No matter how much I have tried and tried and tried I just can't teach myself to lift the seat ... or is it or is leaving it up what pisses women off all the time? See, my mentality just doesn't mesh with women.

As far as kids go other peoples are the best. Spoil the shit out of them and send em home. I don't have any of my own for retaliatory strikes so I'm, safe. Of course If I ever do have kids of my own I'm screwed. My brother and sister have warehouses full of noisy toys and other annoying as heck items just waiting to unload them on me when the first chance they get.

And when you think of it, you all are my family (I'll pause to let you dry your eyes) Its a great big dysfunctional family to be sure, one that you would never want to spend the holidays with in person but
family none the less.

Zero2Cool (15h) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (19h) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (19h) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (20h) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (20h) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (20h) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (20h) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (20h) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (20h) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (20h) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (20h) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (20h) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (21h) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (21h) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (21h) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (21h) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (23h) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (23h) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (23h) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.

dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move

dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : 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 (9-Apr) : Mark Murphy says Steelers likely to protect Packers game. Meaning, no Ireland

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?
