This is my first post in this forum. So far from what I have read , it is more progressive than the one I just left. I find it refreshing that opinions are voiced, intelligently, and all seem to have a voice here. I will add my voice to this song as well.
I am very excited about most of what I see in the 2014 Packers, however I also see areas that IMO need improvement. I will be posting about both.
I like the format in this forum, but like the Packers, I will from time to time make comments improve it. I welcome making new friends, and will try not to start an enemies list. One thing that I've found that works well in other forums is the ability to "IGNORE" the post of members that one finds offensive.
The smileys in here are great, I salute this forum in this area ! [twocents]

Things that may be considered "offensive" usually political/religious/blah is regulated to the "back alley" forum.

But if you just want packer talk, your in the right hole.

As far as the Packers Defence is concerned, it is currently one of the leagues worst at giving up points. The bottom line is to score more than your scored on. The heart of the problem is the heart of the D-line, the Nose Tackle. The next man up philosophy just aint working (or at ROT either). Yet we hear the winning of " we don't have the cap money".
If a more flexible strategy were possible, we could have the cap money and get the players the team needs. Other teams do it, look at the teams that do it well, they have deep second and sometimes third team players that really can step up. [duh]

This is more of a "welcome" type post, so I moved it into the appropriate section and gave it a awesome flashy neat title! 🙂

This was done so you can have the proper welcome and it doesn't get swallowed up by that silly Packers discussion stuff! [grin1]

Welcome aboard! And Laser, thank you. Yes, we are quite open with opinions here and regardless of a few turds, we DO NOT attack the person, but rather we target the OPINION as that is the goal of discussion.

glad to have you on board Smokey. I look forward to reading more of your opinions. So far I like what I have read.

BTW- f you agree with me on all things we will be good friends. [sarcasm]
As for the smilies, Z2C has been adding to them for awhile.

Edit- of course you can feel free to applaud me every chance you get. 😆

That is funny Smokey. I will try and be worthy of your applause in the future.

Side note-

Whenever I see or hear the name Smokey I think of my old uncle's dog Smokey. It was a rather large German Shepard and he was a pretty neat dog. Pretty smart too.

Zero if Smokey does any more recruiting you are going to have to give him a year's free subscription to PackersHome.com.

Maybe a nice set of luggage too.

packerfanoutwest (11h) : Jaire Alexander says he has a torn PCL

Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : Even with the context it's ... what?

Mucky Tundra (20-Nov) : Matt LaFleur without context: “I don’t wanna pat you on the butt and you poop in my hand.”

beast (20-Nov) : We brought in a former Packers OL coach to help evaluate OL as a scout

beast (20-Nov) : Jets have been pretty good at picking DL

Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : He landed good players thanks to high draft slot. He isn't good.

Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : He can shove his knowledge up his ass. He knows nothing.

beast (20-Nov) : More knowledge, just like bring in the Jets head coach

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : What? Why? Huh?

beast (19-Nov) : I wonder if the Packers might to try to bring Douglas in through Milt Hendrickson/Ravens connections

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : The Jets fired Joe Douglas, per sources

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : Jets are a mess......

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Pretty sure Jets fired their scouting staff and just pluck former Packers.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Jets sign Anders Carlson to their 53.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : When you cycle the weeks, the total over remains for season. But you get your W/L for that selected week. Confusing.

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the total and percentage are the same as the previous weeks

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the totals are accurate..nrvrtmind

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : I don't follow what you are saying. The totals are not the same as last week.

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : ok so then wht are the totals the same as last week?

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : NFL Pick'em is auto updated when NFL Scores tab is clicked

Martha Careful (19-Nov) : The offense was OK. Let's not forget the Bear defense is very very good.

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : Who updates the leaderboard on NFLPickem?

beast (19-Nov) : Has the Packers offense been worse since the former Jets coach joined the Packers?

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Offense gets his ass in gear, this could be good.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Backup QB helped with three wins. Special Teams contributed to three wins.

bboystyle (18-Nov) : Lions played outside thats why. They scored 16 and 17 in the only 2 outside games this year

Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : The rest of the NFL is catching up to Packers ... kicking is an issue throughout league

packerfanoutwest (18-Nov) : Packers DL Kenny Clark: We knew 'we were going to block' Bears' game-winning field goal attempt

Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : Lions seem to be throttling everyone, but only (only) got 24 lol maybe the rain is why

Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : Packers vs Lions game doesn't seem so bad.

beast (18-Nov) : Dennis Green "They are what we thought they were, and we let them off the hook!"

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : comment of the day Z2Cool "Bears better than we want to admit. Packers worse than we think. It's facts."

Mucky Tundra (17-Nov) : my worst case scenario: Bears fix their oline and get a coach like Johnson from the Lions and his scheme

Zero2Cool (17-Nov) : Bears get OL fixed amd we might have a problem

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Pretty sure they already have scouting reports on guys who aren't even starting for their college team. The future is now for me.

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : I tend to let Gute and Co. Worry about the future.

beast (17-Nov) : That's great news and Packers need to keep upgrading their OL, DL and DBs this off-season, so missing one guy doesn't kill them

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Jaire and Evans Williams are both ACTIVE! Good news.

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : The badgers really need to change the whole offensive scheme. No draws no screens plus the quarterback is marginal

Cheesey (17-Nov) : If the Badgers had a decent QB, they would have won. The guy can't hit a wide open receiver

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : chop block

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : there was a very questionable job Block call that upon viewing replay was very borderline

beast (17-Nov) : How so? (I didn't watch)

Zero2Cool (17-Nov) : Badgers got hosed vs Oregon

packerfanoutwest (16-Nov) : damn,he hasn't played since week 2

Mucky Tundra (15-Nov) : poor guy can't catch a break

wpr (15-Nov) : wow. That three different things for the kid.

Zero2Cool (15-Nov) : MarShawn Lloyd has appendicitis according to Matt LaFleur.
